A new mural has popped up outside Neyland Stadium in Tennessee in preparation for the big matchup with South Carolina and it’s just as beautiful and intricate as the last:

Each home game the pre-game ritual in Knoxville is to paint a new picture for Volunteer fans on the legendary ‘Rock’ outside the home stadium that serves as a “communication hub and,” a personal “palette for the UT community.”

This week, as you can see, the students decided to honor one of the pastimes of the great state of Tennessee and school itself, horse racing.

The life-size message board provides a great mix between football and Tennessee tradition as is always the case for local artist Payton Miller.

The Volunteers play host to the South Carolina Gamecocks (3-5, 1-5 in SEC) at 4:00 PM EST in what should, always, be a competitive game.
