It's getting a little stalker-ish.

Maybe one of them should just start a "Volsessed check-in mega thread" and be done with it.

That's about 30k more than Vandy will have on hand vs. WKU in the same city tomorow night and about 9k more than Ole Mis


Take that Vandy and Ole Miss!!


Whut?

Vandy and Ole Miss play at Vandy's stadium (capacity just over 40K) same with Vandy vs WKU (capped at 40K) while Vols play in Nissan (formerly LP Field) which seats about 70K. I know math may be hard for some Vol fans so lets do some 3rd grade subtraction.

70 - 40 = 30

Gee, your point of 30K less just matches the difference in capacity where Vandy plays WKU and where Vols play BGSU. Cue the gif…

So when it does sell out will you come back and apologize for being wrong?

Why would I need to apologize? I was saying I understand why UT fans who don't live in Nashville wouldn't want to make that trip, and it isn't a reflection on their fanhood if they choose to sit this one out, especially with the Oklahoma game next weekend. Relax, bud.

Do you think some of these gator posters have a problem that they need to see someone about? All these threads can't be healthy.


Really? After a summer of trolling that is the best you can come up with? vawlcessed?

The time is nigh vollies and the talking is now moot. Your off season trophy can't help you now.

They do seem fixated with us. I guess it gives them a temporary escape for the abortion of a season that awaits them.

They will all change their tune in no more than a month. Let them get everything out of their system before the onslaught begins.

With Jim Bob at the helm, it may be a long time before Florida is winning-season worthy again.

Yes jughead, because even though you are over the top kool aid drinkers, you are still to poor to sell out a 68,000 seat stadium in the middle of you state.


$5 tickets.

It's funny you think we don't know this. Like, we are UT fans. We are not oblivious to the fact we've sucked for a hot minute. But you just keep pulling the same old shite out of your arse and expect us to "melt"

lulz...when we start winning again e will make this board even more unbearable than it already is.

I guess they are clinging tight to those bragging rights. Good for them, sometimes it's a healthy venture to let some things out and vent a little. That said, a few of them are going overboard and I'm getting a little worried.

Idk man, Jim was successful at Colordado St so you have to know he is an A-1 coach. Plus, bama fans love the guy and we all know they're pretty smart.

Saban coaching disciples have such great track records as head coaches.

Auburn
Arkansas
Tennessee
Florida
South Carolina

Each of these schools has had to resort to contracting a 3rd party (IMG Learfield) to sell tickets. Don't throw rocks Florida fans.

Just to help anyone out, IMG Llearfield is completely separate from IMG College (which does multimedia and sponsorship).

well, to be fair, while Dooley and Muschamp tanked, Mike Dantonio and Jimbo have been very successful, and the verdict is still out on McElwain

Just to be even more clear. IMG is a company and Learfield is a company. Unless something happened in the last year I missed, they are competitors, and NOT the same company.

FWIW, IMG is the parent so any IMG subsidiary is still IMG.

Incorrect. IMG Learfield Ticket Solutions

Non-upper deck tickets for the game are going for over face value. There should be a decent walk-up crowd on Saturday that will get it close to the sellout. I suspect that some are saving their money for the OU game next week. Those tickets will cost a pretty penny next week and on game day.

After IMG took over Vols and YellowJackets I lost interest. Thanks for the update. Good news for them but bad for college sports fans.

All good my friend.

Georgia Tech is an Aspire property, who is the rival for IMGLF. Aspire recently landed Texas as well.
