This is actually a pretty awesome video from VFL. Sweet Home Alabama played during UT's football practice and Butch Jones couldn't figure out where it was coming from... so he lost his mind.

“Why would we have that playing at Tennessee?” The flabbergasted coach asked everyone within earshot. “Do you think you could go to Alabama and they sing ‘Rocky Top’? That’s embarrassing. Are we not at Tennessee?”

It is a good point, and one I agree with.

Same way that it absolutely BLOWS my mind that so many georgia fans crank up corey smith "every dawg has his day" all the way to 11. You dumbfricks...do you not listen to the words? The whole song is about losign to florida again. Yeah, let's celebrate that. "I wish it was 1981"...why? We lost 2 games that year you morons.

That appeared to be at least partially staged.

The video interviews definitely do. I don't think Sweet Home Alabama being played was staged though.

If they went through that much trouble to stage that entire getup... Butch really has been processed.

2009 : Western Kentucky, Ohio, Memphis, Georgia, South Carolina, Vandy, Kentucky

2014: Utah St, Arkansas St, Chattanooga, South Carolina, Vandy, Kentucky, Iowa

Since someone at my wedding paid the band to play Rocky Top, UF has not lost to the Vols.

I think he comes off looking like a little bitch in the video..

"Go tell them I said turn that off."

Sweet Home Alabama is a good song.

Rocky Top is annoying.

Hell, thats classic southern rock. We even play that around Auburn and think nothing of it. Its about the STATE of Alabama, not the gumps per se.

However, given the Vols inferiority complex, I can see how this might give Butch some heartburn.

Pretty good prank I think.

What's the point of this? Seriously? A post like this tells me that your just another sidewalk Gump, who probably was a Florida fan prior to 2009 and an LSU fan before that. That's assuming you have even been watching football that long.

I'm concerned that Butch is the kind of guy who worries about all of the wrong things. That his gameplans and in-game coaching will leave something to be desired.

That's true at the bottom line, but you're insane if you don't think the bammers have taken that song and made it their own. When anyone in the SEC hears that song, they think of alabama football.
