I'd be driving up day of on a 7 hour drive.
If you're in Athens like your avi says, it's no where near a 7hr drive, more like 4 1/2 max... Hell,I live 30 mi. W of Atl. & can make the trip in 3 1/2 easy.

Drive up go to the game & drive back afterwards if you have a ticket already, You can be home by midnight & gas & snacks/food/drink would really be your only expense other than parking, but there's a lotta free parking downtown & you can take the shuttle for a few bucks...

Ditto what Dallas said. Plus you have a cheap hotel room already. No way it takes 7 hours unless you're Flintstoning it up there.

I live on the coast. My avatar is old.

Gps says its a 7 hour drive. Through the rain. In mountains. Mostly through South Carolina. It's 500 miles.

By the time I get to knoxville itself, it will be 12 pm. Then there's parking. I don't know if hotel will let me park and even that is a few miles away from the stadium. Factor in the whole getting turned around at some point, even if I have to take a dump, I could end up getting to the game late.

Add in rain, sitting in tennesse section of fans and not really being able to enjoy myself, I'm hesitant.
