We'll take it, if we can get it.

quote:

KNOXVILLE — As Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl committee member Matt Matin watched Tennessee's 53-28 victory over Vanderbilt on Saturday afternoon inside Neyland Stadium, he couldn't help but think what it might be like to have the Vols play in the Orlando, Fla., bowl on New Year's Day.

"I think we'd love to have Tennessee," said Matin, who graduated from UT in 2002 with a degree in architecture. "Five wins in a row. A really strong team. A fan base that travels well. What bowl game wouldn't want that?"


Vols should be a hot bowl commodity

Enjoy the Peach Bowl again.

Maybe TCU won't be there this year.

Without UT. I believe the Vols get the Outback. Citrus will go to the Gators.

The irony of Spurrier's jab - Can't spell Citrus without a UT was intended to poke fun at UT. Now UT fans look at the Citrus Bowl differently.

It's been a long 10 years. Congrats

Better than the Taxslayer Cut a Loaf Bowl LSU can look forward to.

Maybe, although I'm still doubtful because you don't usually help yourself by starting 3-4. Best we can likely hope for is UT vs Mich in the Outback bowl. That would be a hell of a game.

Lsu has 3 losses guys. Did Yall forget? Lsu vs Michigan will be the matchup in citrus. Perfect matchup. Fournette, miles against old team. And not to mention lsu has better record than tennessee

The Peach bowl is a "BCS" bowl now. You know that, right? Also, we're going to the Sugar Bowl.

Tennessee v. Michigan is a MUCH better match up than LSU v. Michigan.

No one wants to watch that boring, one-dimensional shite LSU does.

Plus, we travel better, so, yeah.

Jacksonville is a cool trip. It is a nice city and St. Augustine is just down the road.

Get club level seats and request Lot K for parking. Stadium is really nice on the club level.

One of the better lower tier bowl games.

I think UF goes to the Gator Bowl. No way any UF fans drive more than an hour to watch that offense. And those in the Orlando / Tampa area will surely find something else to do in the local area than watch a QB rating of 10 or so.

WAS a BCS bowl. Now it is just another bowl game.

You can't "NY6" yourselves into the playoffs.
