Like what? That Tennessee is 0-10 in their last ten games against Top 16 opponents (using final rankings for all opponents / current ranking for 2026).
What's incorrect about that?

No offense, but this is whiny as shite. Sounds like a teenager complaining to their parents about a sibling.
I tend to like the early games. The 1100 slot in the cool weather months is pretty sweet from this fans perspective. Gets the one game I truly want to watch out of the way.
The mid-day game has kind of traditionally been the SEC game of the day.
Just get your Vols drunk and rowdy earlier in the day. It isn't that big of an issue.

Yeah Heupel isnt statistically good against highly ranked teams. You forgot that Auburn is so far away from being a highly ranked team. Like I said, enjoy your 6th straight losing season

The 330 game was the #1 SEC game of the week. The night game was #2.
Only reason 2021 was at night was Tennessee wasn't good (same for 2019). It was in the afternoon almost every year in the previous 20 years.

Wow. First time you've come semi close to admitting the truth. Sorry it took you 6 months and 10 threads to finally realize that fact.

For many of those, CBS covered the game and the 330 slot was the most prestigious kick in CFB, so let's not pretend that the first pick of the entire slate was some kind of slight.

Bama wins consistently every year in the SEC therefore ……….
It is what it is.

It hasn't seemed to hurt the Vols. Alabama hasn't won in Knoxville since the COVID year.

Once daylight savings ends, IMO the 2:30/3:30 PM CBS slot was the best slot to have. Plenty of time to tailgate, It was dark by halftime, and you were able to get out of the stadium by dinner time. Maybe it's my older age now, but those late kickoffs can be brutal.

Fifteen in a row permanently damaged the Tennessee football program, and I for one couldn't be happier about it.

Get better so you can claim prime time.
Also, the erector set stadium with horrible, season ending turf strewn with mustard bottles isn’t a good look

I fully anticipate the favoritism will result in a 21 point advantage over you

The Networks want the most watched teams in night game wanting tons of views at primetime spots..not sure how it is favoritism...I would bet teams like Ohio State have a ton of night games. Just like UNC, Duke, or UK will in Basketball..
Just like the NFL wants top drawing games during MNF.

Don't worry you now offer half price bevvys 3 hours before kickoff so it might as well be a 6:30 kick

Wearing jerseys that look like the refuse in an ash tray and helmets that simulate 1920s style leather helmets will never get you a night home game. And then y’all put that faggy UT at midfield against Auburn. The country doesn’t want to see that shite.
Quit dicking around with your uniforms.

Both of yall are at a disadvantage because 90% of your games during the year are daytime ,that’s what yall are used to.

So you think Tennessee plays better in the dark? Who cares when kickoff is?
