Tennessee offensive lineman Gerald Mincey trolls Tide defense after win over Alabama

Will Anderson is widely considered the best defensive player in the country. The Alabama pass rush put together a Heisman Trophy resume last season but was not invited to New York City. He’s best just as good this season as well but could not make much of an impact on Saturday against Tennessee.

The Volunteers’ offensive line was able to keep Anderson in check for most of the night, only giving up three tackles and 0.5 tackles for a loss. No. 31 never even got his hands on quarterback Hendon Hooker and was not mentioned much during the broadcast.

Gerald Mincey decided to have some fun with that after the game, trolling Anderson. He posted a few photos of him smoking a victory cigar, hyping his performance up against Alabama. Even Peyton Manning got in there for a picture.

Without Anderson being a factor for Alabama, Tennessee was able to put on an offensive show at Neyland Stadium. Hooker threw for 385 yards and a touchdown, while 182 yards were tacked on in the run game. Mincey and the offensive line played a huge factor in the program’s first Third Saturday in October win since 2006.

Tennessee fans carry goalpost out of Neyland Stadium

After storming the field to celebrate Tennessee‘s win over Alabama, fans tore down the goalpost and carried it out of the stadium. The fans quickly tore down the goalpost that Chase McGrath kicked the game-winning field goal through while on the field, and proceeded to pass it around on the field with some fans riding on top of it and the crowd of people.

Finally, they found an exit big enough to accommodate their oversized souvenir and carried it out of the stadium as stadium security watched them move past.

The win over No. 3 Alabama was one of the largest in school history and marked several major milestones for the Volunteers on Saturday night. The win was the school’s first over a Nick Saban-led Alabama team — having lost their last 15 matchups with the Crimson Tide. Additionally, it was there first win over a top-five ranked team in their last 29 attempts and the first time that Tennessee has begun a season with a 6-0 record since 1998.
