🏈 The pure hatred of Tennessee by older Alabama fans is a spectacle to behold in person

One of my all time favorites was from Jerry Duncan during his sideline report against the Vol'n'Tears.

"Well Eli, Smokey just came out of the tunnel, and he's about 100 yards away from me now, and if I had my deer rifle I believe I could drop him."

“Vol’n’Tears” that’s perfect!

This thread is bringing tears to my eyes... Warms the heart.

I can relate to this 100%. Living in East Tennessee (grew up in Maryville/live in Gatlinburg now) for most of my life (55), I can attest that they are the most delusional and obnoxious fan base in college football. My hatred for them will not ever go away. No one rubs a victory in your face like the Viles. Thank goodness they haven't won in awhile. I am always more relieved after Alabama beats them because I can relax for another year. My hatred accelerated for them in the 90's because of 3 people: Fulmer, Dickey, and Kramer. I actually lived across the road from the king snitch himself- the great pumpkin: Phil Fulmer. He and his wife were extremely arrogant and had a sense of entitlement like no other. Finally, my brother in law (big vile fan) got me a book for Christmas on Alabama Football and wrote, "I hope you enjoy this book on Alabama Football history since Alabama fans like to live in the past." Typical jab I received from them all the time. Little did he know that 2 weeks later, Alabama would hire Nick Saban and he talks more about the past now than I do.

Has anyone ever "wrote" a book about TN football?

A lot of people's "hero," Daniel Moore, has made a penny off of them.

Maybe the “coloring book” variety.
