WATCH: Tennessee releases new third down ‘anthem’ ahead of home opener

As Tennessee fans will certainly remember, Lil Jon’s “Third Down For What” — a spin-off of “Turn Down For What — rang throughout Neyland Stadium about 8,000 times a game during the 2014 and 2015 football seasons.
Or so it seemed.
On Friday, the Vols announced a new third down tradition, and “Third Down For What” is not coming back.
Tennessee’s official Twitter account posted a video clip of its new “third down anthem” — “Get Low,” by Dillon Francis and DJ Snake.
It features a custom introduction similar to the Vols’ previous take on “Turn Down For What,” according to a report from 247 Sports.
Tennessee apparently is expected to debut the new “third down anthem” on Saturday in the home opener against Indiana State.
