UT All-Time Record: 796-346-53 (.688) UT at Neyland Stadium: 438-112-17 (.787) ESPN Gameday in Knoxville: 2-5 (.286)

¢ Saturday’s game represents the 42nd all-time meeting between the Vols and Gators. ¢ Florida has the all-time series advantage, 22-19, including seven consecutive victories since 2005, their longest streak in the series with the Vols. Tennessee has scored 23 or fewer points in each of those games and 20 or fewer in six in a row from 2005-10. ¢ The last time the two teams played when both were ranked was Sept. 15, 2007 (#22 UT vs #5 UF). ¢ UT has lost three in a row at home in the series but owns an 11-10 advantage in Knoxville. The Vols’ last win in the series was a 30-28 win at home in 2004. ¢ The Vols have defeated Florida four times since 1998, and in three of those four seasons, UT has appeared in the SEC Championship Game (1998, 2001, 2004; also won in 2003). ¢ Tennessee has scored at least 30 points vs. Florida only twice in the last 11 meetings but were victorious both times (34-32 in 2001, 30-28 in 2004).

TENNESSEE BACK IN THE TOP 25

¢ With a No. 23 ranking in the Associated Press Poll, Tennessee has returned to the Top 25 for the first time since a No. 18 ranking before the first week of the 2008 season. ¢ The Vols are not ranked in the Top 25 in the USA Today Coaches’ Poll but received 71 votes, equivalent to a No. 29 national ranking. ¢ Tennessee is one of seven SEC schools currently ranked in the Top 25, including four in the top 10: Alabama (1 AP/1 Coaches), LSU (3 AP/2 Coaches), Georgia (7 AP/7 Coaches), South Carolina (8 AP/9 Coaches), Arkansas (21 Coaches), Florida (18 AP/17 Coaches). Three other SEC schools, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, and Texas A&M, are also receiving votes. ¢ The Florida game is the first for UT featuring two ranked teams since the No. 18 Vols beat No. 16Wisconsin in the Outback Bowl 21-17 on Jan. 1, 2008.

TOP-FLIGHT OFFENSE

¢ The Vols have gained 500-plus yards in consecutive games for the first time since 2000 (Arkansas, Kentucky). Tennessee has also gained 500-plus yards in each of its first two games for the first time in school history. ¢ The 558 yards of total offense against Georgia State are the most in a game for Tennessee since tallying 657 in the season opener vs. Western Kentucky in 2009. ¢ Tennessee’s offense has gained 1,082 yards in its first two games for a 541.0 yards per game average which ranks 2nd in the SEC and 15th nationally. ¢ The Vols lead the SEC in passing offense (353.5, T-9th in NCAA) and are also tied with Georgia for the SEC lead in scoring offense at 43 points per game (T-15th NCAA). UT also ranks 3rd in the SEC and 8th nationally in pass efficiency at 182.9. ¢ Tennessee is tied with Mississippi State for the SEC lead in fewest sacks allowed with one.

COLLEGE GAMEDAY RETURNS TO ROCKY TOP

ESPN GameDay is returning to Knoxville for the Tennessee-Florida game this weekend. The program will originate from Knoxville for the first time since the UT-Auburn game on Oct. 2, 2004. Tennessee is hosting GameDay for the eighth time overall and the fourth time when Florida is the opponent (1996, 2000, and 2002). Only four other schools have hosted more since GameDay’s inception in 1993. The Tennessee-Florida rivalry has served as the backdrop for GameDay seven times, tied for second alltime with the Ohio State-Penn State matchup. Only the Florida-Florida State matchup has hosted more often (eight times). Including 10 road or neutral site appearances, the Vols are being featured on ESPN GameDay for the 18th time overall, the 10th-highest total nationally.

TEAM NOTES... STARTING FAST

¢ The Vols are 2-0 in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2003-04. A victory over Florida would give Tennessee a 3-0 start for the first time since 2004.

VS. RANKED OPPONENTS

¢ UT’s Last Win Over Ranked Team: W, 31-13 vs. No. 21 South Carolina, Oct. 31, 2009. ¢ UT’s Last Win Over Ranked Florida Team: W, 3028 vs. No. 11 Florida, Sept. 18, 2004.

TENNESSEE 51, GEORGIA STATE 13

¢ Tennessee scored 21 second-quarter points en route to a 51-13 win over Georgia State. The win was the eighth consecutive for the Vols in the regular season vs. a non-conference opponent. ¢ The win gave the Vols a 2-0 start in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2003-04 and was 18th consecutive win in a home opener for Tennessee.

SCORE EARLY, SCORE OFTEN

TV

¢ The Vols have four scoring drives of 34 or fewer seconds in their first two games after accomplishing the feat only once in 2011, in the opening drive of the opening game vs. Montana. ¢ Tennessee is 10-1 under Derek Dooley when scoring 25 or more points and 13-3 when scoring 20 or more points.

¢ Tennessee scored 51 points in the win over Georgia State, marking the 24th consecutive win for the Vols when scoring 28 or more points since 2007. The last loss for UT when scoring 28+ points was a season-opening, 45-31 loss at California in 2007. ¢ The Vols have scored 86 combined points in two games, one shy of the 87 combined points Tennessee scored in its first two games in 2011.

TURNOVER TALES

A TENNESSEE WIN WOULD...

Give Tennessee its first 3-0 start since 2004 and only the fifth 3-0 start for UT since 1998. A win would also be the 797th in Tennessee history and improve the Vols to 439-112-17 (.788) at Neyland Stadium. Represent the first win for UT over Florida since 2004, snapping a seven-game losing streak to the Gators. A win would also improve UT to 20-22 in the series all-time and 12-10 in Knoxville. Mark the first UT win over a ranked opponent since a 31-13 win over No. 21 South Carolina on Oct. 31 and the first win over a Top 20 team since defeating No. 18 Wisconsin 21-17 in the Outback Bowl on 1/1/08.

FIGURING OUT FIRST DOWN ¢ Through the first two games of the season, Tennessee is averaging a whopping 10.35 yards per play on first down (735 yards on 71 plays). ¢ UT’s 735 yards on first down represent 67.9 percent of the team’s 1,082 yards of total offense this year. ¢ Of Tennessee’s 11 offensive plays that have gone for 20 or more yards, 10 have come on first down. ¢ After averaging 9.72 yards on first down against NC State, the Vols did even better against Georgia State, recording 10.89 yards per play on first downs.

O-LINE PRIDE ¢ Two years ago, head coach Derek Dooley inherited an offensive line that had made a combined three career starts, all by then-senior Jarrod Shaw. Entering the 2012 season, that number had increased greatly, as the Vols’ offensive line corps features players who have combined for 106 career starts (Ja’Wuan James and Dallas Thomas, 25 each; Zach Fulton, 18; James Stone, 15; Alex Bullard, 12; Darin Gooch, 6; Marcus Jackson, 5). ¢ All five Tennessee offensive line starters return from one of seven units in the nation that did not start

a senior last season and has utilized a combined 31 starts from true freshmen over the last two seasons. The group will hope to build on the dividends paid by increased experience in 2011, when the Tennessee offensive line allowed only 18 sacks, the third-lowest total in the SEC and trailing only LSU and Alabama. This was less than half of the 2010 total, when opponents sacked UT quarterbacks 41 times. ¢ Against NC State on Aug. 31, the O-line helped the running backs to 191 yards of rushing while allowing one sack for just a three-yard loss by Sterling Lucas. ¢ On Sept. 8 against Georgia State the O-line pushed for 196 rushing yards, didn’t allow a sack, and helped provide protection for Tyler Bray and Justin Worley to combine for 15-straight pass completions. ¢ Fewest Sacks Allowed, SEC 2011 2012 LSU 14 2 Alabama 15 2 TENNESSEE 18 1

This will be the eighth time Tennessee has hosted GameDay. Saturday will mark the first time since 2004 that GameDay will be broadcast from Knoxville. The last time the show originated from Neyland was on Oct. 2, 2004 when the No. 10 Vols hosted No. 8 Auburn. All-time, GameDay has previously broadcast from Knoxville seven times: ¢ All-Time College Gameday at Neyland Stadium Date Matchup Result Sept. 9, 1995 Georgia at Tennessee W, 30-27 Sept. 21, 1996 Florida at Tennessee L, 35-29 Nov. 6, 1999 Notre Dame at Tennessee W, 38-14 Sept. 16, 2000 Florida at Tennessee L, 27-23 Sept. 21, 2002 Florida at Tennessee L, 30-13 Nov. 9, 2002 Miami at Tennessee L, 26-3 Oct. 2, 2004 Auburn at Tennessee L, 34-10 What is your favorite college football venue? “It’s got to be Tennessee! That night in that stadium with the orange and Rocky Top -- that’s my favorite!” - Lee Corso, ESPN State (Aug. 31) tied a career best. He also had a 72yard catch against UAB on Sept. 25, 2010. ¢ The play was the longest of the game, put the Vols on top for good and helped begin a stretch where UT scored 16 points in 38 seconds. ¢ Rogers’ 87 receiving yards against the Wolfpack were also a career high.

BIG PLAY NEAL ¢ In his first season as Tennessee’s starting tailback, junior Rajion Neal leads the Vols with 118 yards and three TDs through the first two games. ¢ Neal powered his way ahead for eight yards to tally his first TD of 2012 (third career) against NC State (Aug. 31). Neal finished the game with 53 yards rushing. ¢ Neal added his second and third touchdowns of the season, walking into the endzone against Georgia State (Sept. 8) for the Vols’ first touchdown of the day. He later added a five-yard run in the third quarter. It was the first career multi-touchdown game for the junior. ¢ His first career touchdown, a 20-yard run vs. Buffalo, was Tennessee’s longest rushing TD last season. ¢ Neal’s biggest plays in 2011 came through the air. In the final game of the season vs. UK, Neal hauled in a 53-yard reception for UT’s lone TD. He also caught a 50-yard pass from Justin Worley vs. Arkansas and a 38-yarder from Matt Simms vs. LSU. ¢ Neal’s 134 rushing yards ranked third on the Vols, while his pair of touchdowns on the ground were tied for second. His 269 receiving yards ranked fourth.

HITTING THE SEAM ¢ In 2012, one of the Vols’ main focuses was to expand on the run game’s importance in the offense. ¢ Last season, the Vols averaged 90.1 yards rushing/game. ¢ This season, the Vols have put up rushing yards of 191 (NC State) and 196 (Georgia State). ¢ Marlin Lane led the way for the Vols in game one with a 75-yard effort. ¢ Rajion Neal was the Vols’ leading rusher in game

PICK-OFF ARTISTS

¢ Tennessee had four interceptions against NC State, with Prentiss Waggner, Byron Moore, Eric Gordon and Marsalis Teague each picking off passes from Mike Glennon. Teague picked up his interception with five seconds left to seal the win. ¢ After the first week of games, Tennessee was one of two teams to accomplish the feat of four INTs in one game along with Kansas. ¢ It was the eighth career interception for Waggner, fifth for Gordon, first for Moore and first for Teague. ¢ Moore also had eight tackles after recording six all of last season. ¢ The last time the Vols had four interceptions in a game was November 13, 2010 against Ole Miss in Knoxville. ¢ In game two against Georgia State, another Vol added a pick to his resume as redshirt freshman Geraldo Orta nabbed a Ben McLane pass late in the fourth quarter. Orta also added a PBU on the goal line.

SECONDARY STRENGTH ¢ RS junior Byron Moore and sophomore Brian Randolph lead a UT secondary that has picked off five passes already in 2012. ¢ Randolph leads the team with 15 tackles, 14 of them solo (13th in the nation). Moore has recorded 13 total tackles, 11 solo (77th). ¢ Randolph has been all over the field in the first two games registering one of his tackles for a loss of two yards, notching a pass break up and a pass defended. ¢ Eight of Moore’s tackles came against NC State (Aug. 31) where he also recorded his first career interception. He took the pick back 18 yards helping to set up a Michael Palardy field goal which gave the Vols a 32-14 advantage late in the third quarter.

PRESSURE UP FRONT ¢ With Georgia State driving deep into Tennessee territory in the first quarter, defensive lineman Darrington Sentimore recorded his first career sack. He dropped GSU’s Ben McLane for an 11-yard loss. ¢ Starting in place of Curt Maggitt (toe), Willie Bohannon sacked GSU’s Ben McLane for a nine-yard loss in the first quarter and forced the second fumble of his career, which GSU recovered. ¢ The Tennessee defense has recorded four sacks for a loss of 44 yards already this season.

FANTASTIC FRESHMEN SOPHOMORES ¢ The duo of Curt Maggitt and A.J. Johnson combined for nine tackles in the season opener against NC State on Aug. 31 (Maggitt 5, Johnson 4). ¢ Maggitt had one of the biggest plays of the night, forcing NC State QB Mike Glennon back 18 yards, sacking him, forcing a fumble and helping register a safety all in one play. The play continued a stretch where the Vols scored 16 points in 38 seconds. ¢ A five-time freshman All-America honoree, A.J. Johnson led all SEC freshmen in tackles and ranked second on the Vols with 80 in 2011. He ranked tied for 14th overall in the SEC in tackles (6.8/game) and seventh in SEC games only with 65 (8.1/game). ¢ A.J Johnson finished one tackle behind Austin Johnson for the team lead last season, coming up just short of becoming the first true freshman in school history to lead Tennessee in tackles. He and fellow true freshman LB Curt Maggitt ranked 1-2 among SEC freshmen in tackles per game (Johnson, 6.8; Maggitt, 5.1). ¢ Johnson and Maggitt were the first true freshmen to start at linebacker for UT since freshman eligibility was reinstated in 1972. Additionally, DB Justin Coleman

was the first true freshman to start in the secondary in the season opener for the Vols since Eric Berry in 2007 at California. ¢ Johnson also ranked second in Tennessee history among true freshmen in tackles, 15 behind Eric Berry’s standard of 86 in 2007. Among UT true freshman who played in the front seven, Johnson had the record for single-season tackles.

YOUNG PUPS ¢ The Vols started at least one true freshmen on defense in all 12 games in 2011. ¢ However, in UT’s first game of 2012, there were no freshmen starters against NC State (Aug. 31). Deion Bonner was the only true freshman to play on defense, getting a few snaps as a reserve defensive back. ¢ Tennessee Freshmen Def. Starters in 2011 Game Freshmen Starters Montana A.J.

Justin Coleman was the first true frosh DB to start since Eric Berry in 2007.

SAFETY DANCE ¢ The Vols recorded their first safety against NC State (Aug. 31) since Austin Johnson and Greg King tackled a Skyhawk in the endzone against UT-Martin on Sept. 4, 2010, also a season opener.

WAGGNER ALL OVER THE SECONDARY ¢ Senior Prentiss Waggner shifted around the secondary in 2011 and produced from all angles. Waggner, who has started the last 26 games, started at cornerback against NC State (Aug. 31) extending the streak. ¢ Waggner finished with five tackles and an INT against the Wolfpack (Aug. 31), returning it eight yards and helping to set up the opportunity for a Vol TD. ¢ Against Georgia State (Sept. 8), Waggner netted three tackles and assisted on a TFL for a loss of 2 yards also forcing a fumble. ¢ Waggner had a team-best nine passes defended, matching his total from 2010, and was tied for sixth on

PRESTIGE WORLDWIDE ¢ Not only did the Vols score 22 points in the first quarter against NC State on Aug. 31, but they scored big in the social media realm as well, as “Tyler Bray,” “Cordarrelle Patterson,” “Tennessee Touchdown” and “Go Vols” were all trending Worldwide on Twitter at various points.

the squad with 48 tackles. His 40 solo tackles were second on the Vols. ¢ Waggner turned in five tackles, an interception and a sack against South Carolina. His 54-yard interception return against the Gamecocks matched his career-high 54-yard return against UT Martin in 2010, which was the Vols’ longest INT return that season.

AMAZING A.J. ¢ Johnson finished second on the Vols in tackles with 80, the most among SEC freshmen. He was one of four true freshmen to rank among the top two on his team in tackles among all D-I FBS schools (Mark Murphy - Indiana, Derrick Matthews - Houston, Denzel Perryman- Miami (Fla.)). ¢ This season, Johnson has tallied nine tackles and had a quarterback hurry (vs. Georgia State - Sept. 8) ¢ Johnson at least shared the Vols’ lead in tackles four times this season (UF, LSU, Bama, SC). ¢ Johnson ranked second on Tennessee’s all-time true freshman tackle-leaders list with 80. ¢ Johnson was the first true freshman in UT history to record three 10-plus tackle games, recording 13 against No. 2 Alabama, 11 vs. No. 1 LSU and 12 vs. No. 14 South Carolina. He was also the first Tennessee defender to notch three consecutive double-digit tackle performances since Nick Reveiz did it four straight times in 2010 (Oregon-LSU). ¢ Johnson was awarded SEC Freshman of the Week (Oct. 22) honors for his career-best 13-tackle performance at Alabama which rank as the second-most by a Tennessee true freshman, behind only Berry’s 14-tackle game vs. UK in 2007. Johnson now holds three of UT’s top-four tackle games by a true freshman, joining Berry’s two efforts, and a 12-tackle game by Reggie White against Virginia in 1980. ¢ Single-Game Tackles by UT True Freshmen Player Tackles Opponent Date Eric Berry 14 at Kentucky 11/24/07 A.J.

Johnson 11 LSU 10/15/11 ¢ Johnson recovered his second fumble of the season against the Gamecocks, the only Vol with multiple recoveries in 2011. He’s the first freshman to have more than one fumble recovery since Eric Berry had a pair in 2007. ¢ Johnson ranked 13th nationally with 46 tackles against opponents ranked in the AP poll. He was also seventh with 8.1 stops per SEC game.

BIG PLAY GORDON ¢ Gordon picked up his fifth career interception against NC State (Aug. 31). ¢ In last year’s final home game, defensive back Eric Gordon returned a game-winning interception 90 yards in overtime vs. Vanderbilt. The INT return for a TD was the first defensive score in OT in the FBS since Sept. 9, 2005, when Ohio DB Dion Byrum picked off Tyler Palko of Pittsburgh and returned it for a score. ¢ The 90-yard return tied for the fifth-longest INT return in school history. His 107 INT return yards in 2011 were the most on the Vols. ¢ Gordon was just the third Vol since 2000 to have at least 100 INT return yards in a season. Janzen Jackson had 114 in 2010, while Eric Berry topped the UT record books with an SEC record 265 INT return yards in 2008 to one-up his 222 return yards as a freshman in 2007. ¢ Gordon, who did not play in the 2011 season finale at Kentucky, has interceptions in his last two games after picking off NC State QB Mike Glennon in the fourth quarter and returning it 12 yards.

DEVRIN DASHES ¢ In 2012, Young is listed as the No. 1 for both punt and kick returns and has accumulated 51 yards on five punt returns (10.2 avg.) and 45 yards on two kick returns (22.5 avg.). ¢ Devrin Young had eight punt returns for 94 yards and 27 kick returns for 628 yards last season. His 94 punt return yards were the most by a Vol in a single season since Gerald Jones recorded 150 yards in 2008 on 15 returns. ¢ Young’s 628 kickoff return yards ranked as the fifth most by a Vol in a single season all-time, while his 722 total kick return yards rank seventh. ¢ Additionally, his 27 kickoff returns were tied for the fourth-most in a season. ¢ UT Single-Season Kickoff Return Yards Player KOR Yards Year 1.

DARR DRILLS IT ¢ Matt Darr’s 51-yard punt in the first quarter against NC State (Aug. 31) was his fourth of 50+ yards in his career. ¢ Darr finished the game with five punts for 193 yards and an average of 38.6 dropping two inside the 20.

SPOTLIGHT ON A.J. JOHNSON ¢ Tennessee sophomore linebacker A.J. Johnson led all SEC freshmen in tackles and ranked second on the Vols with 80 in 2011 as a freshman. ¢ Against NC State (Aug. 31), Johnson finished with four tackles. ¢ Johnson was named a Freshman All-American by five different organizations (FWAA, Yahoo!

BRAY-WATCH ¢ With six touchdown passes this season, junior quarterback Tyler Bray has moved up to fourth on the Tennessee career passing touchdowns list. With 41, he has passed the trio of Jonathan Crompton, Heath Shuler and Andy Kelly, all of whom had 36. Next on the list with 72 is Erik Ainge. ¢ Bray tossed four TD passes against Georgia State, marking the the 13th time he has thrown for multiple touchdowns in his career, all in the last 15 games. ¢ Bray completed his last 13 passes against the Panthers, finishing 18-for-20 on the day to set a personal-best completion percentage mark (90%). That stands as the third-longest consecutive completions streak in school history and carries over to this week. ¢ Bray was named one of nine finalists for the Manning Award Player of the Week after passing 333 yards and two touchdowns against NC State in week one. He was named to the “Stars of the Week” list by the Manning Award. ¢ The junior slinger leads all active SEC quarterbacks with eight career 300-yard passing games. Arkansas’ Tyler Wilson is second with six. Bray has eclipsed 300 yards passing in eight of his 14 career starts. ¢ Bray has averaged 298.0 yards passing per game in his 14 career starts, and Tennessee is 10-4 in those games, including a 7-1 mark at Neyland Stadium. At the time of his injury in 2011, his 315.8 passing yards per game ranked ninth nationally and first in the SEC. He is 10-3 in regular-season starts. ¢ Since becoming UT’s primary QB at halftime of the South Carolina game on 10/30/10, Bray is 301-of-500 (60.2%) for 4,331 yards, 41 TDs and just 14 INTs. ¢ Bray set a UT record, throwing for at least two touchdowns in 10 consecutive games (10/30/10 at South Carolina-10/1/11 vs. Buffalo). ¢ With 4 TDs vs. Cincinnati last season, Bray set the UT record with eight consecutive games with multiple touchdown throws, breaking Peyton Manning’s previous

During the last two seasons, Tennessee has played 47 freshmen, including 32 true freshmen, the latter of which ties with Florida’s total for the most in the nation since the beginning of the 2010 season. The infusion of talented young players, almost all of whom will play significant roles on the 2012 team, began shortly after Dooley was named Tennessee’s 22nd football coach on Jan. 15, 2010. Dooley’s first two recruiting classes include six Freshman All-Americans, and eight players who were named Freshman All-SEC over the last two seasons. Additionally, Freshman All-American linebackers A.J. Johnson and Curt Maggitt ranked first and second, respectively, among SEC freshman tackle leaders per game in 2011. Tennessee was the only team in Division I FBS in 2011 with three freshmen (true or redshirt) among its top five tackle leaders. The increased commitment to excellence in all facets of the program is also present in the state-of-the-art, $40 million Football Training Center that is opening soon. The facility, redesigned by Dooley upon his arrival, will be the finest of its kind in the nation. He also established a new academic accountability system shortly after accepting his current position. Determined to make immediate strides in changing the culture of the program, Dooley created the Vol for Life (VFL) program, a comprehensive player support and character education program, in his first year at Tennessee. The four-year VFL curriculum focuses on the often-overlooked personal growth of the student-athlete, encompassing the following topics: character education, personal finance, life skills, career development, spiritual growth, community service, mental conditioning, personal branding and navigating the social media landscape. Dooley has led by example as well, speaking at numerous events throughout Knoxville and the entire state of Tennessee to help raise more than $1,000,000 for children and other causes in the local community.

¢ Tennessee fell behind early and couldn’t catch back up as No. 16 Florida claimed its seventh consecutive victory over the Vols, 33-23, at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. The Vols played nearly the entire game without wide receiver Justin Hunter, who’s season ended early after suffering an ACL tear. The Gators stifled the Vols’ run game, which finished with minus-9 yards, although three sacks and several bad snaps cost the Vols’ rushing total. Running the ball wasn’t a problem for the Gators, though, and Tennessee couldn’t find an answer for Chris Rainey. Rainey had 212 yards of total offense, including 108 yards rushing on 21 carries. He also blocked a UT punt early in the second quarter that led to a field goal. UT countered with two more touchdowns and a field goal to pull within 10 points, but the Gators ended any threat of a UT comeback when Matt Elam intercepted Tyler Bray’s pass at the Florida 17 with less than two minutes remaining. Bray connected for three passing touchdowns.

NEYLAND STADIUM /// SHIELDS-WATKINS FIELD

438-112-17

CAPACITY /// 102,455 The Best Gets Better

The Home of the Vols got a makeover in 2010, transforming one of college football’s meccas into an aesthetic masterpiece. The concrete walls that used to hold up the west side were replaced with brick. Below the press box, six new panels display some of the finest to ever don the Orange and White-- Al Wilson, Gen. Robert R. Neyland, Reggie White, Peyton Manning, Johnny Majors and Doug Atkins. Most noticeable from the outside are the approximately 700,000 bricks that totally transformed the look of the stadium’s north and west sides. Standing in the middle of that transformation is the majestic Gate 21 plaza area. Six lofty archways dominate the entrance, which doubles during the work week as a key campus transportation hub. No doubt the traffic on game days is just as hectic. Adjacent to the Gate 21 plaza is another change, the new amphitheater at the corner of Phillip Fulmer Way and Andy Holt Avenue. The Vol Network’s Kickoff Call-In Show takes place there, sporting spiffy new digs after spending years on a make-shift platform in front of a worn down hillside. Just inside Gate 21, the Tennessee Official Team Shop is open for business six days a week under management of the UT Bookstore. Four other souvenir locations are located throughout the stadium, including one in an exclusive new seating area.

17 Straight Years with 100,000+

Tennessee has had at least one home crowd of 100,000-plus in each of the last 16 seasons. Only Michigan has a longer streak with the Wolverines’ dating back to 1975.

NEYLAND STADIUM

 WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT NEYLAND STADIUM

14

“The big games I played in Neyland Stadium are right up there with the Super Bowl. It is still one of the most electric atmospheres I have ever experienced, and the passion of the fans is what makes the difference.” -- Peyton Manning, Former Vol and Denver Broncos QB “It is a remarkable experience. It starts with the Vol Walk down to the stadium, and the energy just builds and builds until you run through the ‘T’ for kickoff.” -- Jerod Mayo, Former Vol and New England Patriots LB “I’ve been to LSU, Florida State and Texas and almost every place that could be considered one of the toughest places to play. But we went down to Knoxville for a night game, and that Tennessee crowd was the most impressive that I have ever faced. Neyland Stadium was just electric.” -- Bob Davie, ESPN game analyst and former Notre Dame head coach “It’s static noise. You can’t hear anything. You go up and down the line -- your wide receivers, your running backs, your tight ends -- nobody can hear. Nobody.” -- Nate Longshore, Former Cal quarterback (2006) “It’s got to be Tennessee! That night in that stadium with the orange and Rocky Top -- that’s my favorite!” -- Lee Corso, ESPN College Football Analyst

THE GENERAL

The Proverbial, Perpetual Yardstick

One of the greatest coaches in the history of the game of football, Gen. Robert Reese Neyland is still, and will most likely always be, the yardstick by which all Tennessee football coaches are measured. For 21 years, he led the Big Orange to win after win and championship after championship. His 173 wins, seven conference titles and four national championships set the bar at one of the nation’s finest football institutions. According to UT legend Gus Manning, no one summed up Neyland and his coaching ability better than Wallace Wade: “He could take his and beat yours or take yours and beat his.” -- Wallace Wade, Alabama and Duke head coach and Neyland rival.

Gen. Neyland’s Maxims of Football

1. The team that makes the fewest mistakes will win. 2. Play for and make the breaks and when one comes your way -- SCORE. 3. If at first the game or the breaks go against you, don’t let up -- put on more steam. 4. Protect our kickers, our QB, our lead and our ball game. 5. Ball, oskie, cover, block, cut and slice, pursue and gang tackle -- for this is the WINNING EDGE. 6. Press the kicking game. Here is where the breaks are made. 7. Carry the fight to our opponent and keep it there for 60 minutes.

FOOTBALL TRAINING CENTER Tennessee’s state-of-the-art Football Training Center will be one of the most modern and functional buildings of its kind. The 145,000-square foot building includes an amphitheater-style team room, coaches’ offices, position meeting rooms, a dining hall, players’ lounge, a 7,000-square foot locker room, a 22,000-square foot, multi-level weight room as well as a new training room and hydrotherapy area. The building also features several technological upgrades, including a state-of-the-art video delivery system for players and coaches. The locker room includes roomy, custom-built and ventilated lockers with electrical outlets for charging portable devices like cellphones, iPods and laptops. Also included in the building is an updated football hall of fame area. The Football Training Center will join with the Brenda Lawson Athletic Center and NeylandThompson Sports Center. It will provide athletes direct access to both the 120-yard indoor football field and Haslam Field, Tennessee’s two outdoor football practice fields. Construction began in Spring 2011, and the project is scheduled to open in the coming weeks.

Vols Roll NC State, 35-21, in Season Opener ATLANTA - Tennessee’s 2012 season got off to an impressive start. The same could be said for wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson’s career. And Sal Sunseri’s defense. The Vols rolled up more than 500 yards of total offense and dispatched NC State 35-21 in front of 55,529 in the Georgia Dome in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Patterson, a South Carolina native who spent two seasons at Hutchinson Community College in Kansas, caught six passes for 93 yards and scored on a 67-yard reverse to help stake the Vols to an early lead. All told, Patterson had 165 of the Vols’ 524 yards of total offense. And Sunseri, making his debut as the Vols’ defensive coordinator, saw his players record a safety and pick off four NC State passes. Tennessee (1-0) had just nine interceptions last season. Justin Hunter picked up Patterson’s momentum in the second half. In his first game since tearing his ACL against Florida last September, Hunter caught nine pass for 73 yards, with eight of those catches coming after halftime. Hunter had four catches on UT’s first drive of the second half, a 14-play, 87-yard grind that ended when Rajion Neal scored from 8 yards out. That score - and a Michael Palardy field goal on their next possession - helped the Vols build a 33-14 lead by the end of the third quarter. While Tennessee’s third-quarter scores were methodical, its first-half offense came in a flash. Patterson began the scoring with a 41-yard touchdown pass from Tyler Bray, whose 333 yards against NC State (0-1) marked the seventh time he’s thrown for more than 300 yards. The Wolfpack answered and took a 7-6 lead on a 2-yard touchdown run by Tony Creecy, ending a 10-play, 86-yard drive that got a big boost from 41- and 28-yard completions by quarterback Mike Glennon. Then the Vols hit fast-foward. Cornerback Prentiss Waggner intercepted a Glennon pass on fourth down, ending an NC State drive inside UT territory. One play later, Tyler Bray found Zach Rogers wide open behind the Wolfpack secondary for a 72-yard touchdown. On NC State’s next play from scrimmage, linebacker Curt Maggitt forced a fumble that rolled out of the end zone for a safety. And one play after that, Patterson took an end around 67 yards for a touchdown, winning a footrace to the end zone and ending a stretch that saw the Vols score 16 points in 38 seconds. Once the pace slowed, NC State turned a fourth-down stop into an eight-play, 67-yard touchdown drive that made the score 22-14 with 3:42 left in the second quarter. The Vols nearly scored a touchdown with 11 seconds to go in the first half, but officials said quarterback Tyler Bray fumbled on a quarterback sneak from the 1-yard line. An official replay upheld the call and kept the Vols’ lead at eight points heading into halftime. UT allowed 145 passing yards in first quarter, but clamped down in second half and kept major pressure on Glennon, who finished with 287 yards on 27-of-46 passing with four interceptions and one touchdown. UT’s defense had a major hand in the win, as did its running game. Tennessee finished with 191 yards rushing, led by Marlin Lane’s 75 yards on nine carries, including a 42-yard run that set up a field goal in the third quarter.

THE WRAPUP

For the Record

• Tennessee Captains: Ben Bartholomew, Maurice Couch, James Stone and Willie Bohannon. • The Vol For Life Legend of the Game was Charles Davis, a defensive back for UT from 198386. He is the lead college football analyst for FOX.

Game Notes

• Mychal Rivera celebrated his 22nd birthday with his second career TD reception, hauling in a 19-yard pass from Tyler Bray in the second stanza. He finished with four catches for 70 yards. • Tennessee’s total of 51 points was the second-highest tally of the Derek Dooley era, ranking behind the 52 the Vols scored vs. Ole Miss in 2010. • The Vols posted back-to-back 500+ total yardage games in the opening two contests of the season for the first time ever. Tennessee also posted its first back-to-back 500+ total yardage contests since gaining 502 vs. Arkansas and 590 vs. Kentucky in 2000. • In his 14th career start, Tyler Bray recorded his eighth career game of 300-plus yards passing, finishing 18 of 20 for 310 yards and four touchdowns. • The Vol QB completed his last 13 passes, including nine straight in the second quarter, tying for the third-longest completion streak in school history with Casey Clausen and Jeff Francis. • Justin Hunter tied the UT record for TD receptions in a game, snaring three scoring tosses from Tyler Bray. The catches were for 25, 11 and 19 yards.

Vols Sprint to 51-13 Win in Home Opener Over Georgia St. KNOXVILLE - Tennessee’s first possession inside Neyland Stadium this season lasted 13 plays, covered 78 yards and ended with a trip to the checkerboard end zone. But for the rest of the Vols’ 51-13 victory over Georgia State, that opening drive proved an anomaly. For the better part of three quarters, the Vols looked like they were caught in one long two-minute drill. After tailback Rajion Neal capped UT’s 4 minute, 14-second opening drive with a 1-yard touchdown run, the Vols specialized in quick-strike scores. They needed just 30 seconds and two plays to move 40 yards for a touchdown and a 14-3 lead in the second quarter. And then the real fireworks started. The Vols moved 73 yards in just 1:20, scoring on the first of three touchdowns by receiver Justin Hunter to take a 21-6 lead with 4:11 to go before halftime. Their next possession ended the same way - another Tyler Bray-to-Hunter touchdown - but took just 41 seconds to go 79 yards. That touchdown gave UT 28-6 lead at halftime, but the quick scores continued into the third quarter. After forcing a Georgia State punt to begin the second half, the Vols’ next drive qualified as a regular slog in comparison to the rest of the day, lasting a full 2:36 and six plays before Neal scored on a 5-yard run. Already leading 34-6, the Vols moved 62 yards in four plays when Bray connected again with Hunter for a 19-yard score. Bray, who came out with 4:45 remaining in the third quarter for backup Justin Worley, completed his last 13 passes and finished 18-of-20 for 310 yards and four touchdowns. Hunter led the Vols with 146 yards receiving on eight catches, and his three touchdowns marked the ninth time in school history a player has caught three touchdowns in a game. For the rest of the game, Tennessee played lots of newcomers. Twelve players saw their first career action, and running back Quenshaun Watson scored on a 2-yard touchdown that began after redshirt freshman Geraldo Orta intercepted a pass deep in Georgia State territory. Tennessee, which ran for 184 yards, topped 150 rushing yards for the second straight week. Last season, the Vols eclipsed that mark just once. What’s more, the Vols recorded more than 500 yards of total offense for the second straight week, the first time since 2000 they’ve done that in consecutive games. The Vols also ran plays out of their ‘Wildcat’ package with fullback Justin King taking snaps at quarterback.
