Oklahoma fans invade Vol Navy tailgating area, Knoxville

Published:
One of the country’s most entertaining games of Week 2 takes place in Knoxville, as the Oklahoma Sooners come to town.
The No. 19 Sooners are bringing their Air Raid offense against the No. 23 Volunteers. Tennessee has an up-and-coming young roster that the program hopes will put them back on the national map.
Although Saturday’s game doesn’t kickoff until 6:00 p.m., Oklahoma, fans are already piling into Knoxville, as evidenced by Twitter mentions. Boats with OU flags are showing up where the Vol Navy parks, too.
