Judging by his Smokey Grey helmet, stock car racer Bubba Wallace is clearly a Tennessee fan.
Wallace tweeted out this picture Thursday, showing off his slick helmet featuring the patented Volunteers alternate headgear:

The Vols wore the helmet for the first time against Georgia in last season’s 38-31 win. No official announcement has been made regarding the Smokey Grey look for the football team this season but Virginia Tech and Alabama have been rumored as possibilities.
The Checkerboard Neyland campaign announced fans have voted to checker the stadium in orange and white Sept. 24 against Florida, making it seem unlikely the Vols would bust out the Smokey Grey for that game.
