Im not fore sure but I think Ole Miss is the only college who plays it. Didn't realize that about them playing Florida's version & didn't know Georgia used to play it. I'm amazed Ole Miss still plays it but good for them. It's a southern thing & I just like how it sounds.. The tune of it sounds cool & catchy. Also had no idea about Iowa playing From Dixie With Love. Certainly wouldn't have guessed that. Is everything you said 100% for sure?

I wasn't talking about who plays Dixie now, I was wondering who played it in the past. My guess is every school in the SEC (and the south) played it back in the 50's and 60's. In addition to Georgia and Florida, I am pretty sure Arkansas played it. I know Arkansas State played it. My high school band played it and we played "the U of F Version. I also played in Ole Miss band and we played
U of F version which is what they still play.
Scroll to the bottom of this link and you will see where Iowa Hawkeye Band plays FDWL. They wrote the original that Ole Miss playes. LINK
