...I've been to Michigan State...all stadiums are the same."

I was looking at this quote and it made me think...how did he do in those big venues. Here's what I found.

1). Not sure when he went to Ohio State...but Purdue lost at home to tOSU his Freshman season (2013)...a game in which he didn't play. He has never played in a game at Ohio State, or been on a team that that visited OSU.

2). At Nebraska in 2014, he was 18-46 with 1 TD and 2 Ints.

3). At Michigan state in 2013 and 2015, he never took a snap.

Here are the places (and their capacity) where he has actually taken a snap from center as a visiting QB.

Illinois (60,670)
Minnesota (50,805)
Nebraska (87,000)
Indiana (52,929)
Marshall (38,227)
Iowa (70,585)

Congrats on ending the streak. Getcha next year in the swamp. Have an upvote too.

I do have a question though.

How much orange and white paint does this take you and Prof, tennfanatic and Vols and Shaft?

Man, I'll be surprised if he completes 40% of his passes in Knoxville. It's going to be ugly.

All streaks end sometime.

Good analysis.

My point is that he lied. That seems to be pretty clearly stated in my post.

This really should be an upvote party thread.

Not that it will matter but lulz at comparing crowd noise of any of the places he's played to Neyland.

Ending what streak. I'm thinking that whenever Appleby fails miserably, they will put in either Franks or Sproles to beat the Vols. It will be Treon Harris all over again.

I don't use white paint...that is 75 bottles of white-out that I'm using in the pic.

Many vol fans lied to me last year. So what. Several Vol players lied last year. I'm not sure what you are getting at.

Del Rio will come hobbling out of that tunnel Willis Reed style and lead the comeback if 2 for $20 plays like shite.

It won't be Appleby that beats UT. He will fail miserably...then either Franks or Sproles will come in and crush the hopes and dreams of Vol fans (ala Harris '14).

He is from the state of Ohio, so it is very possible that he attended an Ohio State game at some point.
