Honestly I don't know, I was at the UCLA game in Knoxville though and their fan support was trash

Yup

Watch out for these two. Very dangerous.


I've seen a couple vol fans that look similar to that picture. All were pretty friendly.

So school doesn't start until a month after football season starts? Dumbest thing I have ever heard.


It is pretty wack. I wish it started earlier like most schools.

How well did UT fans travel to UCLA and @CAL a while back.


UT fans will travel to North Korea if they have to

I was a little surprised myself to hear that many people made the trip. My buddy is out there right and said Portland is full of Vol fans right now too, and that the variety of beer is amazing


7k would be nuts. I don't think we've had that many opposing fans. Most of the time it's the usual 2500.

There's a reason the Pac 12 is the only major conference to have on-campus championship games

We haven't had too many big name teams come here in a while.

Stanford was a top 5 team last year and their home attendance was downright pathetic. Those nerds don't give a frick about football.

Back when USC was good and ranked how many of their fans made the trip to Eugene?

Mods on UTs rivals page said that the 5500 tickets given for UT fans sold out almost immediately and that Section 4 is where all the fans are going that couldn't get one of the 5500

I think just the normal 2500. I've never seen Eugene flooded with USC fans.

Most SEC schools travel very well. When LSU played in Seattle back in 2009, approximately 15-20K Tiger fans made the trip.

Can't beat a trip to the Pacific NW. Went up for LSU-Washington a few years ago. Great part of the country to visit.

I heard 7k were expected. That was a while back though. A lot of Vol fans really had a great time with Ducks fans at Neyland. Y'all showed up wearing "WE HATE KIFFIN" T-shirts and so the bond was instant. That and great interaction we had with Ducks fans made a lot Vol fans want to make the return trip.

We love our Vawls, even when we're getting dragged up and down the field.

If your AD didn't puss out you'd have 15K+ UGA barking UGA fans out there in 2015. But alas..
