Would You Have Liked Saying Roll Vols?

[terrypedigo]

Depends on what you are rolling.

It is entirely possible, knowing our fanbase, the students did this as a dig against Bama. I'd like to know the date of the photo, perhaps we were winning at the half?

I've heard that in the old days fans would say "roll Vols" "roll dawgs" "roll gators" much like you say "go Vols" go dawgs" "go gators" now.

It would've been fine had we been saying it the whole time and not bamer. I like to say roll vols to bama fans, it BURNS THEM UP! Lol!

I like using Parole Tide, Payroll Tide, and Troll Pride. Those 3 are pretty effective for getting under a Bammers skin.

And as for OP's question. Ummm NO. That would almost classify as blasphemy if we used any saying with the word "roll" in it.

Roll Vols is too close too that stupid Alabama phrase they like to say. Why they ever chose to embody their catch phrase with that time of the month will forever be beyond me....

While we are traveling down memory lane, does anybody want to bring back the silly walking horse doing the pre-game trip around the field and taking the obligatory crap on the edge of the field?

You must not get out of the subdivision much.

[Chattanooga Butchslappers]

the only reason we allowed them to take the "roll" or "roll on" phrase was bc the U of A produces the most truck drivers, per capita, in the United States

I've heard that in the old days fans would say "roll Vols" "roll dawgs" "roll gators" much like you say "go Vols" go dawgs" "go gators" now.

We also used to say "Huzzah, huzzah!"

This....and Roll Tide is actually in "Yea Alabama" which was written in the 20's.

I'd rather say, "We're here, we're *****, get used to it" than say Rawl Vawls.

Round the bowl, down the hole, roll tide roll.

Well, one of the excuses for those gawd-awful gray unis was that they wore that color 100 years ago. So, why the hell not?

Actually, the band used to play a tune named "Roll on Mighty Vols" hence the placards in the stands in the photo.

Ok, so it is history lesson time.

Excuse me while I google this.
