Tennessee fans won’t like what some Kentucky fans did to the iconic Rock on Saturday morning.
The Wildcats are in Knoxville to take on the No. 3 Volunteers and are looking to derail the Vols’ undefeated season. While Tennessee has had a massive advantage in the overall series, Kentucky will be trying to pick up a 2nd win over the Vols in 3 years.
As you can see below, some Wildcats fans in town for the game spent some time putting their own message on The Rock:

While Tennessee fans have already painted over one side, the other side hasn’t been changed just yet:

Things were already set to be intense between the Wildcats and Volunteers on the gridiron. This won’t do much to decrease the tension between the 2 fanbases, though. Can the Wildcats back up their talk and leave the Neyland Stadium field a winner on Saturday night while handing the Vols their first loss of the season?
