Good question on Tennessee. Obviously those fans are very thirsty for a winner by now, however I have to admit that number is damn impressive.
One explanation that people sometimes forget is that Knoxville is a pretty decent sized place population wise. Metro Athens is just under 200k (the city and the surrounding suburbs), metro Knoxville (city and suburbs) is close to 900k.
They essentially have a million people withing 25 minutes of their stadium. Definitely helps them with things like spring games and basketball games where most fans in attendance are local.
