Default The Vols are doing major rennovations

I will put a link to the Vols renovations and it is massive, even compared to the Big House.

Dimitiri may have a greater appreciation for what we take for granted - the college stadium. My blood bleeds Orange and White and I know the religion of the SEC which is college football.

I was watching Florida vs. Auburn yesterday (early 90's era) and all I could think was "What I would not give to be sitting in the stands of an SEC football game again". College football, for that matter, is an event unlike the NFL.

In the Deep South, those stadiums are built like cathedrals. Whether its Legion Field, Florida Field, or Neyland, games are always played before packed sell-out crowds. Tennessee is in a down year but the Vols will bring in its usuall 107,000 people.

I will be traveling to a game this year to take in the atmosphere but I do think we forget just how good we've got it in the States with the magnificent arenas in every state of the union.
