UF gets a bit of help being at home but I also think that helps TN so we get away from the pressre cooker of NEyland in this streak breaking situation.

So much quality in this post is ruined by this one sentence. Seriously, you've shown that you are one of the Vol fans on here who has a brain and common sense: Do you really think the game being played in the Swamp is a positive for Tennessee? I have thought about this for a while, and I simply cannot fathom how anybody could spin this game being played in the Swamp as an advantage for Tennessee. I don't buy the pressure from the home crowd garbage, that really sounds ridiculous. It simply makes no sense to me.

I don't think it is an ADVANTAGE for TN over UF.

I just think it isn't the typical home away difference due to how our last two games in Knoxville have gone vs. you all.

Both, if you were there, you could cut the tension with a knife and in the second halves of both games the fans I felt did just as much harm as good to the home team.

I can't explain it and it may be idiotic but I swear I felt it.

Anyway overall the home field is still an advantage for UF for sure, but it all depends on if you take care of UK the week before.

IF somehow you drop that one I could see fans dreading possibly seeing the streak end to TN and it be pretty easy to silence the crowd.
