I don't think there's much debate that Tennessee Vols fans are some of the best in the nation.

But if there's any doubt, that was erased this week.

After beating Alabama, the Vols are taking on UT-Martin in a game that obviously doesn't carry the same level of excitement.

In most years, this is the kind of game that would usually attract around 90,000 fans (even when they're good).

This year, though, the game is sold out.

In previous years when attendance at Neyland Stadium wasn't at capacity, fans have said they would pack the house if Tennessee was elite.

And they weren't lying.

The Vols are in the thick of the national championship hunt and as a result, Tennessee fans aren't passing up an opportunity to see UT in action.
