When Tennessee was really good in the 90s it was really annoying, but in modern times Rocky Top actually not that bad. There's a pretty cool backstory too. I have no problem with Rocky Top!


Since an OU fan started this thread...

An interesting back story:

The actual song "Rocky Top" (Osborne Bros) was released on the radio in the last week of December of 1967. The same week that OU and Tennessee played in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 1, 1968
