A primary concern for some during the Neyland renovations was the idea that it could possibly dip below a 100,000 seat capacity. However, that will not be the case, as confirmed by the school on Thursday.
Tennessee confirmed via spokesman that Neyland’s new capacity will be 101,915, coming down from 102,455.

Neyland has been over 100,000 seats since the mid-90s, where it was once the largest stadium in the country.
