KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Vol fans: Get ready to dust off your orange and white gear when the Gators come to town on Oct. 12. It's going to be a checkered Saturday!
Tennessee Football announced the Florida game will be a Checker Neyland game. UT said this will be the eighth Checker Neyland in program history.
