Last Monday night, it was “Football Time in Tennessee,” but only kinda sorta because “Football Time for Tennessee in Georgia this week because we’re on the road to start the season” sounds like a Daniel Tiger song, cramming square peg words into round hole melodies. You’ll be singing it ALL DAY LONG, but it’s never going to make the Top 40.
But today, it’s actually all caps “FOOTBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE” for real, as the Vols host the Indiana State Sycamores in their home opener at Neyland Stadium this afternoon at 4:00 p.m.
The SEC Network has the broadcast, and David Neal, Matt Stinchcomb, and Dawn Davenport are the broadcast personalities.

Go Vols Go!!!!!!
Don’t be surprised if Indiana State is able to run on us, their starting TB is a pretty darn good back… and their defense performed quite well against Eastern Illinois giving up just two touchdowns with one occurring with 3 seconds left in the game.
I expect us to roll in this one but it might not be a 35-0 at halftime situation.
No Tyler Byrd, Lattrell Williams, Evan Berry. Probably others. Let’s do this! Beat those sycamores! XP for our guys. No whammies.
Don’t need any of those guys today, but the lack of conversation about what’s wrong with Evan Berry is concerning.
We elect to receive. House. it.
HOLY NOSTRA-KIM-US!
Wooo hooooo
That’ll do.
WOO HOOO!!!
JG on sidelines smiling with offense. 🙂
Nice, Chandler! Only got touched once!
Looks like the Jumper/McDowell combo in our base nickel set
Guessing game jackpot right there baby.
Oops. 4th down at the 50.
Well that was not a good first offensive series…..
Shamburger cost us field position.
Missed another deep pass there for 6. Close.
Dormady either too much adrenaline or just still working on the timing with Palmer. But that deep ball is there all day against this bunch.
That looks bad!!!
Yeah, that looked weird. Hope Eli is okay.
