They are currently ranked top 10 and have some nice players coming in next year. It’ll be fun to see what they can do!
My son committed to play golf for @SewaneeTigers. Pumped for him!
One of the most beautiful campuses in 🇺🇸 & the best on campus golf course in TN.
It is a special place.
Haha - they are nasty!
I learned yesterday that it was a staffer at Bama that started the tradition, but he was a golfer on the UT team during college.
A couple thoughts this morning…
- I am reminded of the Vols win about every three seconds due to the cigar after taste
- how many times do I need to brush my teeth to make the after taste go away?
- I tried eating straight onions last night to get the cigar taste out.
I agree 100% the fans shouldn’t have “stormed” the field. No reason to this year or two years ago.
I love my Vols but I’d take South Carolina next week against us.

Dixieland Delight was written by Ronnie Rogers in 1982. The inspiration for the song reportedly came while Rogers was driving down Highway 11W in Rutledge, Tennessee, a small town about 30 miles outside of Knoxville.
The premise of the song is that he and his lady friend, who I presume was wild as a mink and sweet as soda pop, were cruising down Highway 11W on a perfect Saturday night in East Tennessee. A Saturday night that I can only assume was spent celebrating Tennessee’s 35-28 victory over the No. 2-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide in 1982.
In conclusion, Alabama fans have turned a song inspired by a Tennessee Saturday night with a Vols win over Bama, into one of their most beloved football traditions.
You’re welcome, Tuscaloosa.
Go Vols! 🍊🍊
