Country singer trolls Alabama with brutal opening to Nashville show after shock Vanderbilt defeat

Rising country music singer Koe Wetzel savaged the Alabama Crimson Tide ahead of his show in Nashville following their loss to local Vanderbilt.

On Saturday, the Commodores pulled a massive upset by beating the college football powerhouse, 40-35, at FirstBank Stadium.

The following day, Wetzel opened up his show in Music City by playing former Alabama coach Nick Saban’s comments about how easy it is to play at Vanderbilt.

‘The place you play in the SEC that’s not hard to play is Vanderbilt,’ the legendary coach says in the old clip. ‘You have more fans there than they have.’

After playing Saban’s clip, the montage proceeds to footage of Vanderbilt fans taking down the goalpost and carrying it down Broadway.

The montage to rub salt on Alabama’s wounds faded out to make way for the beginning of Wetzel’s setlist.

Fans in Nashville finished the celebratory parade of the goalpost by tossing it into the Cumberland River – a culmination warranted by the biggest win in their program’s history.

Vanderbilt’s Sedrick Alexander ran for two touchdowns and Randon Fontenette scored a pick-six. Meanwhile, Diego Pavia outplayed Heisman Trophy candidate Jalen Milroe in the Commodores’ first win over the nation’s top-ranked team.

According to SportRadar, Vanderbilt had also lost all 60 games against AP top-five teams.

This is the dream, right here,’ Lea said. ‘And for the next 12 hours, I’m going to enjoy the dream. We’ve got more ahead of us, but this is what Vanderbilt football needs to be about– big wins on big stages. We’re going to go get some more.’

The win moved Vanderbilt to a 3-2 record and 1-1 in the Southeastern Conference. On the other hand, the Tide are now 4-1 with the same conference record as the victors on Saturday’s game.

Vanderbilt will look to ride the momentum of the win into their game against the University of Kentucky on October 12 as Alabama hosts the South Carolina Gamecocks.

‘We’re going to find out really how much we care about each other and what it looks like moving forward,’ Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer said postgame. ‘We’ve been tested in different ways really a lot of the games here this season, and this is a different type of test now in our response.’
