YBsostupid Posted December 4, 2022 Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 These games have been played in east Tennessee for how many years in a row now? 11, 12, 15? It's past time for them to be held in the Liberty Bowl again. That hasn't happened in more than 30 years now. Having to travel and spend the night before the game in a hotel, with players this age, is a huge disadvantage. Middle and east TN have not had to do that for decades. Why can't the Liberty Bowl host them for a 10 year slot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate2003 Posted December 4, 2022 Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 Tell them to bid on hosting. They haven’t been mentioned as even attempting to bid on the games. What you’re saying is like wanting to win the lottery, but you never buy tickets. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldenpride Posted December 4, 2022 Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 Memphis doesn’t bid for the games, maybe when they renovate the stadium and parking there they will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it needs to be back in Nashville/ Vanderbilt. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizzpatriot2 Posted December 4, 2022 Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 Memphis? Who wants to travel a great distance just to get mugged, robbed and/or shot? Serious and legitimate question. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious and legitimate question. He’s right. I get murdered every time I go to Memphis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it needs to be back in Nashville/ Vanderbilt. I would say there's a good chance it goes back to Nashville once the new stadium for the Titans is built. As for now, it's likely staying in Chattanooga, unless Cookeville decides to up their bid for the next cycle. I honestly liked the setup in Chattanooga pretty well, as the parking was fairly close and the facilities are nice. The only thing about Cookeville I prefer is the drive (1 hour for me vs 2.5 hours to Chattanooga). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nashville hasn’t bid on it either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
