KELLY WEGEL
Our party of four (two writers, another photographer, and yours truly) arrived in Knoxville Saturday at about 1p.m. It was a sea of orange as far as the eye could see.
Once in the stadium, we were relegated to the smallest and most ill-equipped photo room I have ever been in. No wireless connection, barely enough space to fit our laptops, and wires criss-crossing all over the tables and hanging from the ceiling. The feeling of unease grew as Tennessee made touchdown after touchdown. So did the noise. I have to hand it to those Tenn. fans, they may only know one song, but they know it well. I must have heard “Rocky Top” twenty times, no joke. It seemed to burst from them at every opportunity.
Georgia made two touchdowns, Tenn. made five.
As quarterback Matthew Stafford later said in the interview room while I took photos of him, “they just played better than us.”
