Georgia Sports Blog: Catching Up with Matt Stinchcomb
PWD: What was the worst or toughest place to play?MS: Tennessee is a really tough place to play as an opponent. I think fans in general don't realize the impact they have on the game, but the fans in Knoxville know their role. Everything at Neyland is enclosed, and you feel like you're inside a tin can. The crowd noise is like standing next to the starting line at a drag race...for four hours. It's painfully, oppressively loud. The only place I played as loud as Neyland Stadium was the Metrodome in Minnesota, and that place has a roof to keep the sound in.

Cool!
That’s great to hear. What time frame was that, though, do you know? I wonder if Florida has since overtaken us.

I believe he played from 95 to 98, so right at the peak of the Fulmer era (so far, hopefully).

Off topic, I just figured out that entering a title on comments isn’t necessary. This pleases me, as I often resort to starting a sentence in the title and continuing it in the body of the post because I can’t think of an apt title.

I didn't realize that . . .
. . . and - lol - it looks like old habits will be hard to break!

Just so you know, I wasn’t intentionally ripping you off by putting the same quote in another post, I had post-dated the post for this afternoon and found that you beat me to the punch.
That’s what I get for not spending enough time around here. D’oh!
No problem
I figured it wasn’t intentional. Thanks for the comment though!
