Im tellin ya man Lane Stadium and Neyland Stadium would be sold out every year due to the overwhelming number of fans from Blacksburg to Knoxville. It would be bigger than the UT UK game in two seasons. The main reason is it would be a more competitive ball game and not near as lop sided. Not to mention that VT would bring a Huge number of fans to every SEC game they would play. I went to the Bama VT Chick-fil-a Kick off and it was over 100,000 people at the Georgia dome with a big ole chunk of em wearin Burned Orange! The hokies have one of the biggest followings in sports not just football either. Their basketball fans are just as roudy and faithful. Looking at if from a Basketball stand, VT would be very competitive there as well in the SEC. Just my opinion but VT is a better fit in the SEC east than Mizzu or Texas A&M. Back to the Blacksburg to Knoxville comment. Thats an area that is roughly the same size as most fan bases in America. It would be almost like a very good In State rivalry.
