Neyland Stadium

Good Thursday morning, Big Orange family. We hope your day is off to a great start and your week so far has been grand. Not sure if you have heard yet, but for the first time since 1970 both Alabama and Tennessee will wear their "home" colors when they face off in Neyland this year and Tuscaloosa next year. In just 15 short days it will be football time in Tennessee. We wish you all the best on this day and let's go back to 1967.

Both schools announced Wednesday that would return to color-on-color uniforms for the first time since 1970 beginning this season.

Good Wednesday morning, Big Orange family. We hope this week has been a smooth one so far and today will be just as smooth. Won't be long as we just 16 days until it's football time in Tennessee. We wish you all the best on this day and let's go back to 1975.





Tennessee wide receiver Larry Seivers out-jumps two Auburn defenders before landing on his feet, turning and running into the endzone for one of two touchdown in the Vols’ 21-17 win over the Tigers in 1975.

“Seivers is the best receiver I’ve ever coached against at Tennessee… I don’t think Tennessee has ever had a better pass receiver,” Auburn head coach Ralph “Shug” Jordan told reporters after the game.

Good morning, Big Orange Family!
