Music City Mayhem

Mayhem: A state of violent disorder or confusion; havoc.

That could be the one word to describe the Music City Bowl game last night in Nashville. It did not end well for Tennessee fans, and honestly, I don't want to recap it. But I had fun with Amy and Kory and company at the game. We had amazing seats (thanks Will) and good weather!

It was a LONG game and it got a little bit colder, but overall a great night for football! At least we had great new Tennessee headbands to wear!

The Mayhem started Wednesday night with Lauren and Jean and the Zac Brown Band concert. Such a fun night with some of favorite people!

I have had a fun week here in Music City..... Mayhem and all.

Vandyland

This weekend was my first Vandy experience. It may been one of the most boring games to watch, but I will take lots of memories from this weekend's game against Vandy. I work with lots of Vanderbilt fans so there is always a little tension and trash-talking! But thankfully, we won so the trash-talking will have to wait till basketball season!

This game was fun to go with someone who knows so much about football. I had a great time with James and he made the game much more entertaining. Highlights from the game include UT fans cheering the most when we actually caught a punt return, having the "away" game with 80% Tennessee fans, and waiting 40 min for a Petro (how embarrassing) then running out of chili when we get up to the front of the line.

Go Vols!

Boys of Fall

I love football! This season has not been our best at UT, but on Saturday we looked AWESOME against Ole Miss! What a perfect day to go to a game with my sweet Dad! PERFECT weather, a big win, and a fun day with my date to the game.

I also ran into my new roommate at the game! Out of 100,000 seats, she sat right in front of me at the game!

UT unveiled this new statue of General Neyland. It is a beautiful statue to see in person and I loved hearing some great stories about Neyland.

Some fun facts about General Neyland:

• Neyland Stadium was not only named after The General, but he also helped design it.
• Neyland was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as a coach in 1956
• He is famous for creating the seven Game Maxims of football that many coaches still use today
• He was not just famous for football, but was also a famous General as well
• My grandmother played cards with Mrs. Neyland often

I just love Tennessee. Go Vols!
