3 of those pictures are at the end of the game or after it was already over. One is from 2011 LSU after the game ended in a blowout. Hard to tell on the bottom one, but it appears it's alabama, and you can clearly see there is 1 minute left on the clock in the 4th quarter. one of those is florida from recently. i was at both the last ut/florida games in neyland. both games were maxed out in capacity. no telling when (before, after, during) the game that picture was taken, but i can assure you it was a sellout. the top picture looks like vandy or missouri from before the game had even started, and the big empty spot is the student section.

Every UT-Alabama game I've been too has been sold out. I've had plenty of fun in Knoxville and a great time drinking with Vols fans.
Vols fans are as passionate about their school as the next fan base, but it was really disappointing as a big fan of this rivalry to see the stadium get nearly empty in the middle of the 3rd quarter. You could hear their frustration as the game wore on, but man they hit the exits quick.
For the UF game, it is always sold out. But again, they have a tendency to hit the exits before the game is even over. I'm not talking about 5 minutes left in the 4th.
I don't mind Tennessee getting good again. It's great for the conference and even better for the rivalry. But tons of Vols fans think they have the most non-fair weather fan base in the country and they've filled up the stadium every game no matter what. That is far from the case.
