Tennessee will play a football game against Virginia Tech at Bristol Motor Speedway this fall.

It’s one of the most anticipated new college football venues in quite some time, as the famous 160,000-seat auto racing venue will turn into a football spectacle on Sept. 10.

Termed the “Battle at Bristol”, it’s truly going to be a one-of-a-kind game between two major college football programs that have met just eight times in spite of being in bordering states.

But according to long-time Knoxville columnist John Adams, one game at the racing venue is just not enough.

Since they’re going to all of the trouble of smoothing out the logistics of playing football in the venue, Adams suggests that the Vols pursue a second game at the venue in the near future.

The opponent?

None other than Jim Harbaugh’s Michigan Wolverines.

Adams cited many Tennessee fan’s long-held grudge against Michigan as a perfect recipe for a strong Vols turnout:

Most Tennessee fans have been pulling against the Wolverines ever since Michigan cornerback Charles Woodson beat out UT quarterback Peyton Manning for the Heisman Trophy in 1997. Those fans probably were hoping for another shot at Michigan last postseason when it became apparent the Vols were headed for the Outback Bowl in Tampa.

And more recently, it’s hard to ignore the shaky relationship between Harbaugh and the SEC.

Just last month, Harbaugh came after Tennessee coach Butch Jones on Twitter after Jones joked of making a trip to Florida to see Michigan’s spring break practices:

But Adams concedes that Bristol is a little bit of a drive from Ann Arbor.

And Harbaugh isn’t exactly the type to play second fiddle on an idea. He’ll probably have his own game drawn up at a new, exotic location before he becomes the “second team” to play against the Vols at Bristol.

Still, it’s fun to think about the possibilities of a Harbaugh/Vols clash at Bristol.
