Setting goals for 10,000 new season ticket holders, they blew that number out of the water by selling 16,780, nearly 168 percent of their goal. In total season tickets, the school sold nearly 5 percent more of their 56,000 goal with sales of 58,871.


I get that 1 year does not a program make and 7-5 is not print the shirts worthy. But it’s nice to see the fans supporting the team again.

Amazing what a decent QB, an above average WR corp and a fun O system to watch can do for a fanbase.

Also Tennessee fans in November:

"Of course we're bad. Who expected us to be good?"

One of the dumbest fan bases in all of sport gets duped again?

Doesn’t your stadium hold like 110,000?

7-5…. I don’t expect the Vols to contend in the next couple years but being entertaining is a great step

Haven’t seen LSU fans flex over season ticket sales. But to your question, haven’t seen any numbers. They sold right at 70,000 season tickets last year, though

110,000 normal-sized. But Vol fans spill over so they can't sit next to each other. So it's more like 55,000. Plus the smell takes up seats too.

Are they giving out happy meal bags at the stadium again? I hear those are a big hit for the official visit recruits.

Probably the best seat in the house for a Vols fan most games.

This probably happened in the early Kiff, Butch, and pruitt days as well. Vols have sucked so bad for so long, just playing some average ball excites the fans.

I think UT's on the upswing (I don't like it, though). :)

The Vols can use some good news.
