History[edit]

The song gained popularity while Moroney was still an unsigned artist, due to social media posts in which Moroney was wearing a Tennessee Volunteers T-shirt that fans speculated belonged to Morgan Wallen.[2] At the time, she was recording music produced by Kristian Bush, one-half of the duo Sugarland, who serves as producer on the track.[3] Due to the song's popularity online, it entered the Billboard Hot 100 in October 2022 based on downloads and streaming,[4] and led to her signing with Arista Nashville by year's end. The label serviced the song to country radio until March 2023, when parent company Sony Music Nashville closed the Arista Nashville division and transferred Moroney to Columbia Records' Nashville division.[5]


The song is a love story about college football, portraying a relationship between a narrator who is a fan of the Georgia Bulldogs and a man who is a fan of their rival, the Tennessee Volunteers. Moroney released a music video in January 2023 which features Moroney wearing Tennessee Volunteers apparel.[6]
