The Tennessee Vols unmercifully trolled Texas after a big win against the Longhorns on Saturday night in Thompson-Boling Arena.

After the Vols' 82-71 win, the PA at Thompson-Boling Arena started playing the George Strait classic "All My Exes Live in Texas" as the Longhorns walked off the floor.

The Tennessee social media team also included the song in the post-game Instagram video graphic.

That wasn't the end of the trolling, either. There was also a graphic of Vols head coach Rick Barnes with the caption "this man hangs his hat in Tennessee".

(This one hits a little harder since Barnes was previously the head coach at Texas. Well done, Tennessee.)

And for good measure, Tennessee's basketball team got together for a group photo after the game and the "Horns Down" gesture was featured prominently.

There have been some epic Vols celebrations over the last year, from baseball to football and now basketball — this was certainly one for the books.

Tennessee athletics is absolutely on fire right now. And it's just the beginning of a special run for an athletic department that's been down for far too long.
