In the SEC, here is what I know of off the top of my head:

Ole Miss:

Bob Dylan - OxfordTown
Billy Joel - We Didn't Start the Fire

Alabama:

Steely Dan - Deacon Blues

Dooley's Junkyard Dawgs.

Does the song have to include the Lyric "University of Tennessee", or will "Tennessee" do?

It’s James Brown for UGA unless you count Corey Smith’s Twenty One as a hit song

Don't forget arguably the greatest song ever recorded. "We're coming to your cit-ay" that mentions several SEC places.

Sunset Grill by Don Henley has the lyric "Stare (or Gaze) out at the Auburn sky."
It's a really good song, other than that choice of lyrics.
