KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The University of Tennessee is asking fans to make sure they wear orange to Neyland Stadium on Saturday, as the Vols play Alabama.

It said it plans to "Orange Out" the stadium for the matchup, filling the stands with fans wearing Tennessee's color. The Vols' matchups against Alabama usually attract some of the most attention during football season, as a result of a yearslong rivalry between the two teams.

This year, the 11th-ranked Vols will play against seventh-ranked Alabama in Neyland Stadium. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 19. The last time the two teams played each other, Tennessee fell to Alabama in Tuscaloosa.
