I would be there at least a hour 1/2 early 3+ hours early to get a seat. There will probably be 10K+ people trying to watch this game. Let’s not forget that many of the seats will have already been sold to LA season ticket holders. This is why I ask the question why LA wouldn’t consider moving the game to Vanderbilt.

Whether it be cable or NFHS, good chance this game is televised. 2nd, it's just not worth it to have 10k in a stadium that seats 40k. No telling what Vandy will charge to host Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What works for one doesn't work for another. You lose the atmosphere that makes Friday Nights special once you move to a college stadium unless you can get close to filling it up. Your basically relying on a huge walk up crowd to make that happen. If I was LA, I'd rather have a great environment with a smaller crowd.

crow Posted July 15, 2023 Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 Leave it at LA. Nothing like seeing a row of people 3 deep all the way around a field. That’s late November atmosphere there. Sounds like a great time in the making! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember around 1990 Knoxville Central had a team ranked in the top 10 nationally. They moved their semifinal game vs. Lincoln Co. to Neyland Stadium and lost badly. A loss they blamed largely on not keeping the game on their campus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well probably didn't help Lincoln Co had a future NFL QB on their roster as well. Anybody that loves football that lived in RuCo in the 90s can probably tell you about the 98 playoff matchup between Oakland and Riverdale held at MTSU that filled up most of the stadium, but instances like that are a rarity with the amount of games televised now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
