I remember when the idea of Virginia Tech playing Tennessee at Bristol Motor Speedway was nothing more than a rumor. It seemed more like fan fiction than an actual possibility. Turning a Nascar infield into a football field is a crazy idea, and the fact it is actually happening is even crazier. The Hokies have another opportunity to play Tennessee, a team I wish was on the schedule every year. Two proud programs separated by just 236 miles shouldn't have to go almost 8 decades since regular season meetings (10/2/37). Saturday night is going to be one to remember for both teams. The ninth time the Hokies and Volunteers will play football will be college football's biggest game ever.

Tennessee week is finally here. Crank your speakers to eleven, press play, and get hype.
