Georgia football has a tough road trip this weekend, and there is a way fans can help out the Dawgs — turn Neyland Stadium red and black.

This week Dawg fans need to make Neyland Sanford North 2.0.

Giving the Dawgs a home-field advantage in Knoxville would be the ultimate dig to Tennessee fans because they can’t even fill up their stadium for a massive ball game.

Neyland Stadium is one of the biggest venues in college football, and when that fanbase shows up, it can be intimidating, not to mention deafening.

On Saturdays, Knoxville floods with fans wearing orange and white. If you haven’t been to the Vols campus, seeing it for the first time, that orange can be a bit much to absorb.

So turn it red and black because the No.1 team’s fanbase needs to travel with their team.

As we’ve seen in the past, when Georgia fans make themselves known on road trips, it usually results in a big win for the Dawgs. Think about the countless times Georgia needed its fans to show up and be loud on the road — when they did, it was a powerful tool, and when they didn’t, Georgia had to silence the crowd themselves.

This team can silence opponents on their own, but this Tennessee team has confidence, and their fanbase will be there to help out. The trash talk from Volunteer fans has already begun on Twitter and other social media channels. Hopefully, they won’t bring any mustard or golf balls, but it would be better to blow them out so they’d leave before it got violent.

The trip to South Bend, Indiana, was incredible because Dawg Nation was an absolute force. They brought the Dawgs a home-away-from-home advantage, and it helped them beat the Irish.

Another time is the countless times Georgia fans have loaded Vandy’s stadium, and there were more Dawgs than Commodores.

On Monday, head coach Kirby Smart made it a point to mention this environment and how tough it can be. He talked about how this fanbase has bought into the new culture and how it will be loud.

There is no better way to eliminate a harsh playing environment than to fill it with your own fans and make it more like a home game than an away one.

Who doesn’t want to watch the No.1 team in the country beat down another opponent? Georgia fans should find a way to get to Knoxville and be there to support this team.

Having your fans make a statement at a road game is a huge confidence booster, even if this team doesn’t need one. There are tickets left out on the market, so if you can, make the trip to Knoxville and be the 12th Dawg.
