If Tennessee pulls off the upset against Alabama, it will be a cause for celebration in Knoxville and all parts of Big Orange Country.
According to one fan, that could potentially include rushing the field.
PSA: talked to an officer that is working the UT game tomorrow and they were told not to arrest and to let the students go if they rush!??

As of 7:25 p.m. ET, Stevens’ tweet had 83 retweets. While some football fans would frown on a top-10 team’s fans rushing the field, a UT win on Saturday would snap a nine-game losing streak to the Crimson Tide and knock off the No. 1 ranked team.
As one might predict, the response from Alabama fans has been that it won’t be an issue:
