Week 7 is here, and we're singing a new verse of an old tune.
The biggest news this week in Tuscaloosa was Tua Tagovailoa's sprained knee the return of beloved stadium anthem "Dixieland Delight" for No. 1 Alabama's game against Missouri (7 ET, ESPN).
The fan favorite -- by the band Alabama, the three-time Country Music Association Entertainers of the Year, no less -- was last played in Bryant-Denny Stadium in 2015, but was nixed due to the annotations made by a large segment of the crowd (their additions indicated in bold):
Spend my dollar (on beer)
Parked in a holler 'neath the mountain moonlight (Roll Tide)
Hold her uptight (against the wall)
Make a little lovin' (all night)
A little turtle dovin' on a Mason Dixon night (F--- AUBURN)
Fits my life (and LSU)
Oh so right (and Tennessee, too)
My Diiiixielaaaaaaaaand Delight
Such a shame to bastardize a beautiful tune about .
