Tennessee fans tore down and carried out the goal posts after the win against Alabama. Some took pieces for souvenirs. Other pieces of the posts made their way into the Tennessee River.
UT is asking for donations to “show your Big Orange love,” like a $52.49 donation to match the final score. It even asked for a $1,019.15 donation, which matches the capacity of Neyland Stadium.
Tennessee could easily just cover the cost of the new goalposts on its own. The university has an endowment fund of over $1 billion, after all.
And Tennessee president Randy Boyd seemed thrilled that fans tore the goalposts down in the moment, too.
