A pregame flyover at the conclusion of the national anthem will feature F-35s from the U.S. Air Force’s 33rd Fighter Wing at Eglin Air Force Base in Okaloosa County, Florida.

Eglin is the main AF training base (as well as partner nations) for the F-35
I've been working the F-35 program for >7 years

I'd suggest ear protection as the F-135 engine is the loudest I've experienced since the J-75 engine in the F-105

The 135 is also keeping me employed right now.  :thumbup:

We rarely used to have pregame flyovers, now it seems like we get a different one every week. Is that a Danny White thing?

Of course. Danny White symbolizes all that is good about UT athletics at the moment.

I thought the flyover of the Blackhawks prior to the start of the Ball State game was one of the best flyovers I can ever recall at Neyland. Those bad boys almost buzzed the top rows. It was pretty cool.

Both times the ANG Blackhawks did the flyover they were (very) low - VERY impressive!
The USAF has a minimum 1,000 foot above the stadium requirement.  Apparently not the same rules for them
Though for the bamer game the 2 Apache + Blackhawk flyover was higher.  BTW, they almost went cyclic neutral over the river to time the flyover correctly
