Look: The Tennessee Vols officially broke Alabama fans

I'm pretty sure the Tennessee Vols broke the Alabama fan base after UT's win against the Crimson Tide.
And it's not just because Tennessee beat Alabama — though that's a precursor to the reason why — it's because the Vols took back "Dixieland Delight", the song about the state of Tennessee that Bama fans weirdly sing at home games.
After that moment, it appears that Alabama fans no longer want to hear the song played at Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Or if it is played, they wanted a re-recorded version that replaces "Tennessee" with "Tuscaloosa" (the syllables don't quite work, by the way).
At least that's what one Crimson Tide fan suggested to Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne.
That's not the only Bama fan that's ready to move on from Dixieland Delight.
There's no doubt this is a special season for the Vols. They've beaten Alabama, LSU, and Florida so far. And they took back a song that rightfully belongs to the state of Tennessee.
What a time to be alive (if you're a Vols fan).
