Tennessee v. Auburn is set for 7:45 p.m. on ESPN. Now, if we could only get Ron Franklin back on the ESPN Saturday night broadcast.

Thanks for beating me to this.

Could you imagine a Fulmer/Franklin broadcast booth? I know that they’re on different networks, but that would be seven shades of uncomfortable.

Awsome!

That will be a big boost for us in a big game!

De nada

You’re welcome, Hooper.

It's still better than it was

with Nessler instead of Mike Patrick. Much better.

Hmm

I hope it ends by 11:15, or else I might miss the last train back. That said, night games are awesome!

If UT stays on the ground, they’ll keep the clock moving. I think Auburn will try to emphasize the run as well – at least early on. The T2 defense is ideal for destroying a passing game, so why not see if the ground game can win it?

My only fear is that the network does what they did last weekend – insert a gazillion commercial breaks ad hoc to atone for the lack of clock stoppages from incomplete passes.

Awesome!

two night games in a row (ohio then auburn)! I love love love night games. Neyland will be rocking, at least the sphere of the Neyland bleachers I will be occupying, that I can guarantee. UT-Auburn has serious implications considering the parallels coming off last season. Go Vols!
