Brock Huard praises Neyland Stadium again after Week 9 game against Alabama

ESPN’s Brock Huard praised Neyland Stadium once again Saturday. Huard tweeted the following just hours before calling Tennessee’s 34-20 loss to No. 4 Alabama.

I’ve said it before & feel it every time I’ve come to Neyland Stadium: There are very few places in CFB like it…. pic.twitter.com/pRlUh9e0Gp

The stadium left a lasting impression on Huard during his first visit earlier this season. The former NFL quarterback turned college football analyst praised the stadium after calling Tennessee’s home opening win over Utah State this weekend.

Don’t know if it’s the stadium on the water, a bright orange I can even see, or 100k+ die-hard fans, but Tenn is 1 of my Top 5 spots in CFB — Brock Huard (@BrockESPN) August 30, 2014

Neyland & UT, you far exceeded my expectations. #Top5VenueInCFB — Brock Huard (@BrockESPN) September 1, 2014

Huard will likely have plenty of chances to return to Neyland Stadium as a color commentator for the SEC Network. The former Washington quarterback never faced the Vols while playing for the Huskies from 1996-98.
