I am an Alabama fan, but yes it is a classy move for UT to play the other team's fight song! Also, I think UT has the BEST pre-game-it never stops. UA Band pregame is pretty lame-running around spelling words and such is just soooo "high school." UA used to outdo UT at half-time, but never pre-game; now UT is outplaying bama at halftime too. What has happened to UA's band at halftime?Bama is the best in the stands though.
@JakeDaQB Ahh, that's more recent. Most teams do that now. If I recall, Johnny Majors refused to take the field until after the opposing team had already gotten to their sideline. I think. It sorta rains on our parade.
@JakeDaQB Are you referring to the first 30 seconds of this video? Tennessee's band always plays the opposing team's fight song as part of their pregame show. The first 30 seconds of this video shows Tennessee's band playing "Yea Alabama" and Alabama's fans singing along. No lack of class here just a little southern hospitality on the part of Tennessee.
