I saw 6 separate cars with OU flags (and OK license plates) headed east on I40 this morning as I was driving to work (I live in Nashville).

In the last 15 years that I have lived here, I don't remember seeing that many opposing fans heading to Knoxville. I realize UT doesn't play many schools whose fans would be passing through Nashville - especially at 7:00 AM the Friday before a game - but this seems like a lot of OU fans to see on my relatively short (15 mile) interstate commute.

Will OU bring 30K?

Depends on how many trailer parking spots Knoxville has.

Stoops treats playing the SEC like the super bowl.

I'm not worried. Stadium will be full of Vol fans

Everyone's gonna be so mad on here if we actually win

Especially once V&S bumps 500 threads

They were allotted 12K tickets and UT sold out their full 90K, so it will be 12K+however many OU fans buy from UT fans on the secondary market.

OU requested more tickets after they sold their allotment of 12k. Tennessee told them no because they did the same to us last year.

I know, it's going to be entertaining reading the excuses from Phat Phil and NorthGAVol

ETA Nice edit after guaranteeing a win originally

I edited it because I accidentally typed VC&S and I wanted to correct it. I never guaranteed a win

Do you get notifications automatically sent to your phone whenever I make a post?

Good luck against the Sooners. I don't want UTjr to win and I hope you don't win, but I hope you bastards stay healthy

I was posting about tickets. You were posting about me.

I'm guessing 15k. A ton of us Vols went to Norman last year and every OU fan I talked to planned on making the trip this year.
They sold out their allotment and begged UT for more, which they did not get.

So how many seats will that actually take up in Neyland?

If you think the seats are small, lose some fricking weight.

They won't bring 30k but there will be a lot. Okies have a musty scent about them that is easy to detect. Hide the firewater

Roughly 10% of Neyland.
