The city of Knoxville is seeking to suspend or revoke the license of Aramark, the company that runs beer sales at Neyland Stadium for the University of Tennessee. City officials say the company served underage adults three times in the 2022 football season and claim beer sales create a "disorderly" environment on game days.

But since beer sales began in 2019, the rate of incidents logged by University of Tennessee police essentially have been the same as years without beer sales.

Is there a path forward? Hosts Ryan Wilusz and Brenna McDermott weigh in.
