    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!

    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.

    Exactly. When its half full it still looks full. They give 16" per seat there. And their fans are just as fat as ours.

    They could cut it down to 8" and "seat" over 200,000.

    As an ole school Bammer, I follow UT pretty well... Back in the day they got into a "capacity war" with the Big House in Ann Arbor...

    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    Well that terrible, outdated rivalry is holding the entire conference schedule back.

    I think it's the outdated guy making the schedule that can't figure out a way to work around UT/Bama and Auburn/Georgia that's holding the entire conference back. (LT)

    Well, as someone has said, the visitors section is usually around the G-10 yard line. Then in the upper reaches of the upper deck, corner of the endzone to the back of the endzone

    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.

    The Vol Navy is cool. Check that out. Downtown Knoxville is also fun for pregame.

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

    I don't mind the 8+1 P5 schedule. Mixes it up a little. If you go to 9, there's a significant chance the SEC CG has already been played in the regular season, which happens some already. 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.

    Back to our game with the Vols, I’d really like to make this trip. But obviously we lose a lot of players and it is an sec road game. I have a feeling UT could be improved with a returning QB and Pruitt in his second year. However it seems both teams have a lot of holes to fill for next season. We catch them right on the schedule. 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.

    The east common opponent helps out MSU tremendously, but is completely unfair and stupid.

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

    I’d like it to be 8 SEC, 2 legit P5s, 2 cupcakes.
