Simply because it shows we're living rent free in Butch Jones' and the players' heads...

Don't feed the troll.

 

[Volguy]

That could be seen or heard as a sign of disrespect.

i think AJ's comments are far more inflammatory and disrespectful.

 

[CrimsonTheory]

Bama is simply "red team" to Tennessee, and the Volunteers is simply known as "Next" to Alabama.

Thank you!



Oh, you mean that other AJ.

To them we are the "red team". To us, they are the "low life lying inbreed cheaters from Hades"

I think Gerry Dinardo used to avoid saying Tennessee when he was at Vandy.

As long as we're called Daddy after the game. I love the fact that we're seen as the "Evil Empire" (although there is no classier program/fanbase in the game)... it means we're kicking arse. RTR!!!

That's ok Hoss. As the old song goes, the times, they are achangin and ther's nothing you can do about it. As Phyllis said, we're coming back!

tick tock

"They're low down. They're dirty. They're some snitches." Yeah, I'll go with the Red Team.

A slap in the face? How about aj mccarron's disrespect concerning this rivalry? The Tennessee game means nothing to him. Geez.....you guys are funny.

Rivalry: a competitive or antagonistic state or condition

When one team is consistently kicking the other team's rear it isn't a rivalry, to wit:

2012: UA 44-13
2011: UA 37-6
2010: UA 41-10
2009: UA 12-10
2008: UA 29-9
2007: UA 41-17

Since AJ arrived at the capstone Bama has won all four games and outscored ut 134-39. I think I see where AJ is coming from.

After Saturday night their butts will be red from the spanking we'll put on them.

Cecil Hurt had a good tweet yesterday that we are now the Voldemort of CFB.

If that's the case then we're going to be the Harry Potter.

Yawn.

I think that the TN fan created a whole lot of crazy talk in this thread. The decision to refer to Alabama as the "red team" during their prep week is a tactic meant to remove their underlying concern that they just cannot beat Alabama. So, if they just cannot beat Alabama, then they are not playing Alabama - they are playing the red team.

The TN head coach has been very respectful of Alabama in all press conferences, and has called Alabama by name. This is something that was meant to stay in the locker room.

Now, do I think that it will work? No. Why? Because those players know very well who they are playing this week, and some of them know that they are going to lose. Others have not conceded the loss yet - and good for them - but you only need to get up quick to see a team that has this kind of mentality fold. Jump on them early and you kill them. Let them stick around and they will start to believe that they just might be able to beat the "red team".

You came out from the cupboard under the stairs in 2010. Maybe you can win one in 2016.

I don't think they meant any disrespect... I live in middle Tennessee and Butch Jones has been on the news talking about how much respect he has for Alabama... and he even called them 'Alabama'.
