This was such a great atmosphere

I need Tennessee football.

I was there too! And had pretty good seats. Robert Meachem was awesome. Cal tried to cover him with some injured CB and he got absolutely abused.

Off topic, I met Bruce Pearl in a tailgate tent before the game.

 

[tnutater]

I too am ready.
Kick the damn ball.

 

[BowlBrother85]

That Cal offense had Marshawn Lynch and DeSean Jackson... but we had them down 35-3 at the end of the 3rd quarter. I miss when teams could have that much talent, and still get their butts kicked in Neyland.

I was at that game. It was my first time in a box. And I remember how much I wanted to be in the crowd.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Yep. Was there. Stomped a mud hole in em and walked it dry.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

That was pure magic! I wasn't there but believe me, you could feel the electricity of Neyland coming through the TV that day! Cal never stood a chance!

 

[TJVol95]

Cheggarboards! Go Vols!

 

[turnuptheVOLtage]

One of my earliest “I remember” games with my dad watching at the alumni watch party in Richmond VA. We stomped them that day. Everything since has been downhill ... lol.

That was such a fun one. So much frustration from 2005 was let out that day by players and fans. It was freaking rocking

like popping the lid off a pressure cooker while it's screaming

That place was such a hornets nest that night. We set the tone on the opening kickoff and knocked out there starting tight end.

Like @utvolpj said, lots of frustration was let out that night. The cherry on top was Hardesty doing his best Tommy Frazier impression and running through the Cal D.

Great atmosphere. Sad there have been so few ones since then. The comebacks vs UGA in 15 and UF in 16 are about the only ones.

 

[Cmacsmokey]

Remember when we were good and weren’t a laughingstock and teams dreaded playing at Neyland I miss those days. I was at this game and the crowd was rocking and loud as any home game I can remember going too unfortunately Cal got payback the following year.

Yea it’s been rough since 2008 at Neyland alot of beatdowns. I was there for two of them the 2010 Oregon game and the 2017 Georgia shutout. We gotta get back to protecting our home turf better.

I was there in y7 row 36 seat 15

 

[volsfan72]

We were in Nashville watching at Tony Romas in Opry mills was also the first time we stayed at the Opryland hotel.

 

[lukeneyland]

Back before those idiots decided to screw up the west upper deck and when the scoreboard said VOLS

 

[Cmacsmokey]

We should’ve beat Florida and LSU that year and won the East.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

We should’ve beat Florida and LSU that year and won the East.

2 horrible calls in both games cost us.
