The Volunteers, after winning just two of their first eight games, outscored Memphis and Ole Miss by a combined 102-28 score the past two Saturdays. Which they’ve enjoyed nearly every second of it. "You work hard to win, and you celebrate when you win," senior defensive end Chris Walker said. "It’s great to have a little fun after everything we’ve been through the past few years, especially us older guys." The Vols’ primary dancing weapon of choice has been a simple circling of their fingers around their temples. It’s called going 'loco,' the Spanish word for 'crazy,' and it means just that. They’re going crazy. Even first-year UT head coach Derek Dooley displayed the move to gathered media Monday afternoon, albeit with a different meaning of 'crazy.' "I never know if they tell me the truth," Dooley said when asked what players told him about the dance. "They say they’re just going crazy, you know, out there. I told them I do that in the office when I watch the film and I see them line up wrong." "In October, I spent a whole month doing this." Dooley then displayed the dance. "I may do it when they mess up, and they can do it when they do well; then we’re even," Dooley said. "I don’t know. If that brings them juice, then I’m all for it."

Football fun for Vols now
