What sections are the visitors seated in? Planning a trip to our oct 12 game thx in advance.
Just an fyi. Cant see shit from the visitors section there. Cant remember which end it is, but its at around the 20yrd line and low.
If you can swing it. Id look for tickets further up in the main bowl
Yeah, that stadium kind of sucks.
Have been there once in time in my life and will never go back. Felt like I was in a hunting lodge of 100 K plus all dressed in hideous orange. They are a condescending bunch who live in the past must worse than the webels. Hail State!
Hope you like your boys smashed against each other because the seats are the size of a 3 year olds sss.
Oh dam. I got a couple seats in section A, row 49 I believe. maybe it'll go well
Here's the thing about Neyland. It feels like they literally built the stadium as vertically as they possibly could. You feel like you are sitting on a ledge.
Go see the Vol Walk and the Tennessee Navy so that you can say that you did it.
The stadium will be half full like it has been for 10 years.
Exactly. When its half full it still looks full. They give 16" per seat there. And their fans are just as fat as ours.Quote:

As I understand it, they didn't so much "add seats", they just decreased seat size.
The TSIO (Bammer/UT game) is still the biggest day of the year, to me... regardless of their suckitude....
Well that terrible, outdated rivalry is holding the entire conference schedule back.Quote:

However, go. (Unless we just sucking it up and they are on a tear) Knoxville is a nice town to visit.
That is what they did. I believe they added around 7,000 seats by moving the seat numbers closer to one another on the bleachers. You have to sit sideways or stand. Stadium is garbage.Quote:

No. If anything scheduling related is “holding back the SEC” (which sounds more absurd as I type), it’s the 8 game conference schedule.Quote:

I guess that's not a terrible thing, but playing the same team a 2nd time for a conference championship isn't as appealing to me as playing a new team and a random P5 team. That said, I wish we'd schedule someone other than the BYU's of the world. Seems like we always go west rather than east.Quote:

We have a bye week. They have UGA the week before and Bama after.
How do you see the UT v State game?
That too, but mainly your school’s rivalry with a powderpuff is what’s holding the conference scheduling back. There is no need for that game to keep things the way they are scheduling wise. It makes no sense.Quote:

I agree with you Hack. I was referring to negative comments by other conferences.... not that the SEC should care.Quote:

It is keeping kids that play the game on the field from getting to experience playing every team in the conference while they are at a school. It is also completely unfair for State and OM and Bama to play their constant east teams and LSU and Auburn to be required to play Georgia and Florida every year.Quote:

Pretty smart in one sense to increase seating by not spending a dime (UT has a good business school). But the backend of that decision leads to a low tier stadium experience.Quote:

You may have convinced me....I like the idea of swapping UT for Mizzou and the chance to play Vandy, KY, and SC more often...Quote:

Modern SEC, I think UT and Mizzou is a wash for Bama. The others, you play the same % of time so no change. I see little change for Bama. Now for majority of the SECW it gets a little better replacing Auburn with Mizzou. Auburn has down years but they have some up years where they compete for SECW. I don't see Mizzou doing that. They will compete for bottom in SECW.Quote:
