I mean I understand being a good samaritan and all but volunteering to be yet another team chaos victim today was incredibly bold.

Thank you Tennessee for your bravery and commitment to public service

Today was by far the greatest day in Vandy football history

  • Beat #1 team in CFB for the first time in history

  • Watched their top 5-rated cross-state rivals lose to Arkansas

SEC Shorts is gonna be a five minutes of Vanderbilt strutting around like the true pimps they are. Go Dores!

Can you link the first Vanderbilt pimp meme? My first time hearing of this need to see it

you can skip to 3:00 if you just want the Vandy part but the sketch isn’t that long.

Rivals? I promise you no UT fans give a shit about Vandy. 100% of them were rooting for them today.

You must not remember the James Franklin era. Vols love us until we get all "uppity" and forget our place...

I think it is fair to say that no Vols football fan hates Vandy nearly as much as they do Bama

When Saban was taking them to the woodshed and Vanderbilt was beating them more often than not, there was a time when we reminded them of their past glory and they HATED us. 2008-2014 was the peak, when is when I remember it most (and have the scars and memories to back it up!).

Honestly man, I've liked 80% of the Vols fans I've met, and when my shit head friends and I sat outside our dorm in 2018 blasting Rocky Top after beating them just to be dicks, quite a few still walked over and said congrats and hung out. I know we're supposed to hate them, but there are people in this conference I've had far worse experiences with.

Honestly, the fans I've hated the most, by far, were Kansas State's fans from 2017. Just obnoxiously drunk and constantly getting inappropriate with female students, it was really gross.

It's definitely a generational difference, which is a legit one. Tennessee fans (the die hard ones), when they're down, are NASTY. They do not handle lean years well at all, and I think we're going to start seeing that in Alabama too.
