Section 44, row 25.

On the ground in Gainesville. Wearing my orange and white.

Sure is hot and damp here compared to Denver.

If you are within 300 mile radius of Gainesville, I challenge you to do less than half of what our Denver Vol just did.
Come to Gainesville. Cheap tickets being sold on the streets near the stadium ...scalpers aren't even setting price...just holding up tickets and asking what you will give for them...definitely a buyers market.....I've never ever seen this before at one of our big rivals stadium.........y'all come on now....

Somebody ought to make an inflatable replica of the Rock (not Dwayne) to take on the road for tailgating areas.

Good idea.
I bet Payton ( the awesome ROCK artist that just graduated from UT, not #16 Peyton) might be lured out of retirement to make something like that, if she was offered the materials?

I'm 597 miles away and headed that way. What ticket prices are you seeing currently? Needing some. Grab me a set and meet me if you find a good deal!

I heard that Equifax has a booth set up already handing out personal information and credit card numbers.
Florida players got early picks.

This. I can't imagine an official "non-sell out" but it could happen, unofficially. Folks here are focused on family and homestead, so it could be a "sell out" without all the bodies in the seats. We were very lucky, but there are still a bunch of challenges and inconveniences.

That said.

GO VOLS!

Uh, there's been several travel advisories regarding I-75 north of Gainesville, due to the Santa Fe River's rising water levels.

To your point, Saturday's game will not be a sellout.

But I would caution anyone driving to Gainesville from outside of Florida to be aware there is a chance I-75 is closed due to flooding.

Heading to Gainesville for first time. Anyone have any good intel about parking? Would prefer to be a decent ways away from stadium and don't mind walking a good bit. Also, any bars where a lot of UT fans go to before game?? GBO.

You can (as of a couple of years ago) park for free around campus. We usually park across on Sweetwater Dr. which is across from the Reitz Student Union off of Museum Rd.

Great spot and it's only a couple of blocks from the stadium.

The street in front of the stadium is called University Avenue.
It is kind of like our Cumberland Avenue.
Many restaurants and bars.
Have no idea where Vol fans will congregate.
