Former Tennessee QB Says Playing at Georgia Is ’Not Intimidating’

Former Tennessee quarterback Erik Ainge tweeted in support of his No. 1 Volunteers ahead of their big matchup at No. 3 Georgia on Saturday.

Ainge played at Tennessee from 2004–07, and he beat the Bulldogs three times in four games. Two of those victories occurred in Athens, Ga.

With Saturday’s game being contested in Athens as well, Ainge wanted the Vols to know they have nothing to worry about, in his opinion.

“Playing between the hedges is overrated,” Ainge tweeted. “Not that loud and definitely not intimidating. It’s nothing like playing in Neyland.
