    There's a power 5 school on the schedule this year and next, with room yet to add one in 19, 20, 21 and 22. While I'd love to join the circle jerk [itch bay]ing fest, I need to know what we're complaining about now.

    Not at home. Not covered by continuously escalating season ticket prices.

    Write your city replresentatives if you want all out of conference games played in Knoxville.

    Probably not. Tennessee can make more money playing big OOC games at a neutral site than in Neyland.

    2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 still haven't gotten the big time OOC game yet, but I'll bet they will probably happen in Atlanta or Dallas or Charlotte or Nashville again before it happens in Neyland. It sucks, but it's what college football has turned into.

    That Pitt game could be cool if they talk about the connection between Tennessee and Pitt with Johnny Majors

    Dooz is right, the city gov is a factor.

    Personally I think complaining on a message board is a better way to bring about any sort of social change

    Factor or no, prices keep going up, product keeps getting weaker. Sounds like grounds for some complainin'.

    A large factor, in fact.

    I'm pretty confident we can find something else to complain about.

    Ya, we can complain about card and his fancy "perspective" posting. Who does he think he is, Paul Harvey?

    Why did we not do a home and home with Syracuse in the late 90s?

    Rich. How many of your pet projects have you followed such sage advice in pursuing?

    And, no amount of hand-written OpEd's in "High Times" magazine, however blazingly impassioned, count as your having written to all elected representatives, en masse.

    Can you make room for anyone else to [itch bay], Panama Red? Please?
