On Tuesday evening, the Tennessee Vols' social media team dropped a video that recapped UT's 24-17 win against the Alabama Crimson Tide. 

The video, which clocks in around seven minutes, shows some great highlights from the game along with some sights and sounds from the sideline and the locker room. 

One great moment in the video comes when it shows the Vols in the locker room at halftime. That's when Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel drops a legendary quote while talking to his team.

"Let's settle in, 30 minutes of ball," says Heupel in the video with the Vols' trailing 7-0. "Everybody got me? We're smoking at the end of this thing, let's go." 

If that doesn't get you going as a Tennessee fan, I don't know what will. Despite being shut out in the first half and trailing by seven, Heupel expressed complete confidence in his team. 

And guess what? 

Heupel was right. The Vols were smoking Bama victory cigars at the end of the night.
