Title: This Battle of Bristol game seems to be a pretty big deal... Post by: droner on August 23, 2016, 12:24:18 EDT ....much to my surprise, quite honestly. I wasn't enthusiastic about it when they first announced it. But now I have to confess the positives are going to far outweigh the negatives. I hear people who aren't even UT fans talking about it. The local TV news (Greenville SC) is showing a piece on it in sports.
The fact that this is turning out to be such a spectacle is a hoot. https://www.seccountry.com/tennessee/watch-bristol-motor-speedway-begins-its-transition-to-football-stadium-following-nascar-race (https://www.seccountry.com/tennessee/watch-bristol-motor-speedway-begins-its-transition-to-football-stadium-following-nascar-race) Title: Re: This Battle of Bristol game seems to be a pretty big deal... Post by: BanditVol on August 24, 2016, 04:09:20 EDT The publicity this brings us will season after we spank them. The narrative will be "Vols were three or four plays away from the playoffs last year" and we will be in the spotlight. That momentum will carry us into a big win over Florida, and then the next 3 games will determine our season. I think we can win all three. Whether we do is why we watch the games. :biggrin:
