Vols seek help replacing goalposts torn down after Tide win

Tennessee beat Alabama on Saturday night, with fans storming off the field and carrying away both goalposts before dumping them in the Tennessee River.

Now the bill is due. Tennessee football tweeted Sunday that it's raising money it says will go toward the purchase of new goalposts.

There's an option for a $16 donation, which is the number of years it had been since the Vols beat rival Alabama; a $52.49 donation, which plays off the final score of the game; and a $1,019.15 donation, which is a nod to the sold-out crowd of 101,915 at Neyland Stadium.

As of Sunday afternoon, more than $15,000 had been raised, which is 10% of the goal. But even that falls short of another tab Tennessee will need to pay soon.
