Former Florida Gators quarterback Anthony Richardson recently pointed out Neyland Stadium as the loudest road venue that he played in during his time in college. 

Richardson, who was selected by the Indianapolis Colts with the No. 4 overall selection in the 2023 NFL Draft, joined The Trenches Show with Zaire Franklin this week and he was asked about the toughest environment he had to play in during his time at Florida. 

"I didn't really get to travel much…but when I played at Tennessee my last year, that was a decent one," said Richardson.

Richardson was Florida's starting quarterback in the Gators' 38-33 loss to the Volunteers in 2022. 

Florida didn't get the win against Tennessee that season, but Richardson had a huge game, passing for 453 yards and two touchdowns while adding 62 rushing yards and two touchdowns. 

Richardson played in some great atmospheres during his time at Florida, playing on the road in games against LSU, Kentucky, Florida State, and Texas A&M. It was Tennessee, however, that was the toughest of those environments according to Richardson.
