Play that shite all you like, dude.

"Pregame “A tradition unrivaled”- The Pride’s pregame festivities haven’t really changed much since Dr. WJ Julian took over as band director in 1961. Dr. Julian remained band director for three decades and shaped the band into what it is today. One of his many impacts on the band was its pregame performance. The Pride has updated it throughout the years, but even after Julian’s retirement, the band has kept things mostly the same. Today, the band’s pregame ritual consists of popular songs like “Mountain Music,” “Tennessee River” and “Stars and Stripes Forever.” The band forms spirals on the sidelines, then un-spirals to get on to the field. After the band plays the National Anthem, they march down the field — only to head back towards the south end zone, spelling out the word V-O-L-S. The Pride then stops and plays the visiting team’s fight song, then flips and plays “Rocky Top” and makes the interlocking UT. After that, the band plays “Spirit of the Hill” — one of the university’s oldest songs — and forms the “Power T” before doing spelling out V-O-L-S again. The band thae forms the letters U-S-A on the field before one of the most famous entrances in all of college football — opening the “T” and playing “Down the Field,” the school’s official fight song."

'Down the Field' dates back to when Coach Neyland was shutting out 17 opponents in a row.
