When was the last time UT beat a #1 ranked Alabama? Fulmer, Kiffin, Dooley, and Butch haven't been able to beat Saban at Bama. Saban killed the last shot UT had at a national championship in 2001. Kiffin used us as a stepping stone, robbed the university, and got us put on NCAA probation.
If we win then all of us fans deserve to celebrate. The players deserve to be a part of a celebration where the goal posts are torn down. Ask the players from 98 what it was like being on the field when they came down
I am going to show my age her but please do not rush the field. Celebrate in the stands with your friends and family. Allow the two teams to shake hands after the game and then meet down by the Pride and sing Rocky Top and The Tennessee waltz all you like. To me, that shows class and doesn't end up costing the football program $100000 for new goalpost. All just my thoughts. Have a great time and Beat Bama.
While I agree it's going to be huge to take down Bama at home, I still say we act like we've been there before. We are a top program we've just been down for a while but we're getting back to where we belong so this should be the norm for us going forward. But hey that's just my opinion. GO VOLS BEAT BAMA
How long has it been since we beat a number 1 ???? Yes we Rush the field in a Win over Saban and Kiffen and Alabama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Remember when UK rushed the field when we lost to them during the Dooley tenure? Do you want your university to look like that . . . on national television? No.
Also, it's bad for player and staff safety. Remember, not everything is about you and what you want. The players/staff win or lose the game; we're simply there to show our support for them, the program, and the university. Fans have no right to rush or be on the field. If you want to be on the field so badly, go try out for the team, or get a job with the staff.
I'm normally not a fan of rushing the field but it wouldn't upset me if they did. Our fans are starving for something to celebrate. If I were there, I'd probably run down on the field too
