Tennessee is 5-0 all-time against Southern Miss and all five of those games were played in Knoxville.

The teams last squared off on Sept. 8, 2007, when Erik Ainge threw for 276 yards and two touchdowns in a 39-19 UT win.

The Vols are 22-2 against current members of Conference USA. UT's last contest against a C-USA team was also on Homecoming in 2015, when the Vols defeated North Texas, 24-0.

UT and Southern Miss have also produced two of the greatest NFL quarterbacks of all-time in VFL Peyton Manning and USM alum Brett Favre. Manning is the NFL's all-time leader in passing yards (71,940), passing touchdowns (539) and ranks second all-time in pass completions (6,125). Favre holds the NFL's career record for completions (6,300) and ranks second in passing yards (71,838) and passing touchdowns (508). Manning is also second all-time in career wins (regular season and postseason) by a starting quarterback (200) and Favre ranks third (199).

Tennessee is 71-19-3 all-time in Homecoming games. The Vols are 3-1 in homecoming games under head coach Butch Jones with wins in each of the last three years.

UT's last three Homecoming games have been one-sided on the scoreboard. In 2014, the Vols took a 45-10 win over Chattanooga. In 2015, Tennessee enjoyed a 24-0 win over North Texas. Last season, UT took a 55-0 win over Tennessee Tech.

The Vols have won 11-straight games against non-conference opponents since a 31-24, double-overtime loss to No. 19 Oklahoma on Sept. 12, 2015. UT has averaged 37.4 points in those 11 games while holding opponents just 14.3 points.

Tennessee is 3-0 against non-conference foes in 2017 with wins against Georgia Tech, Indiana State and UMass.

He is one of them -he is all over in that thread

I just don't see any good coming from everyone getting together and not going.

Media would be all over it negatively
Coaches would use it and other things to negative recruit
Guys Decommit


Not good

There stadium speakers here on the USM campus were blaring Rocky Top today during football practice. For a moment, it felt like I was home again
