Neyland Stadium

Neyland Stadium is the football home of the Tennessee Volunteers, rising along the banks of the Tennessee River in Knoxville. It is one of the largest stadiums in the United States, with tiered decks that tower over the surrounding campus and river. Game days bring a distinctive checkerboard end zone, the marching band's pregame 'Salute to the Hill,' and the sight of the 'Vol Navy' flotilla of boats docking along the riverbank. The scale and roar of the crowd make it one of the SEC's signature road environments.

Opened in 1921 as a modest grandstand and expanded repeatedly over the following century, Neyland Stadium now seats around 101,900 and is named for legendary coach and athletic director Robert Neyland, who built Tennessee into a national power. It has hosted decades of top-ranked matchups and rivalry games, including annual clashes with Alabama and Florida, and its riverside 'Vol Navy' tradition dates back to the 1960s. Multiple expansions over the decades have made it one of the largest college football venues in the country, and it remains a fixture of the SEC's biggest rivalries.
