Rebel spirit was on display all day and night Saturday and HottyToddy.com writer/photographer Callie Daniels captured the images — from Rebelettes to Rebel fans to Rebel Pride of the South musicians and cheerleaders.
These images put you right there on the Vaught turf:
The Rebelettes were rocking!
And the cheerleaders were flipping!
And the Pride of the South Band was hitting every note!
The Rebelettes are a precision squad.
The Rebel drum major has it in control.
Musical excellence comes to the front.
The Rebelettes are always smiling.
The baton twirlers keep the halftime show in motion.
If the Vols had won the whole football world would have tipped upside down.
The band is ready to take the field at halftime.
Let’s go for the win Rebels!
A touching military reunion was a hit with the crowd.
The Pride of the South Band is a fine-tuned instrument.
Liam and Woody ask the crowd ‘Are you ready!’
Rebel cheerleaders répond ‘Hell Yes!’
Touchdowns are nice but that cannon is a little loud.
Mr. and Miss Ole Miss were on board for a Rebel win.
The Pride of the South band was as on-target as the football team in the Rebel victory.
Marine Gunnery Sgt. Stephen Roberts returned to cheer on the Rebels!
Note: Those who watched the Ole Miss play a home game against the Texas Longhorns in 2011 may remember Sgt. Roberts (aka “Ole Miss Screamin’ Marine”) hollering “TOUCHDOWN!” at Marquise Goodwin. Here is a .gif of that awesome moment. Sgt. Roberts also started the Hotty Toddy cheer last season. We were glad to see our rebel-hearted alumni back for the Homecoming.
A magical evening had the right music and the right Rebel pride.
And the Rebel reach for No. 1 marches on.
This fan says it all. A sweet night.
