What is America's worst college football fight song?

FIGHT SONG FOOLISHNESS Texas plays Oklahoma on Saturday, which means three things: Friday night in Dallas will be buck wild; Saturday at the Texas State Fair will be one of the best scenes in college football; and everyone will want to strangle the Pride of Oklahoma Marching Band (31) by the end of the day.

As the endless purveyors of “Boomer Sooner,” the band will drive everyone in the Cotton Bowl crazy. The tune itself isn’t too bad, just highly repetitive — and when you couple that repetition with the lyrics and the backstory, this is America’s worst fight song. Which is saying something.

It's "That's all right, that's okay, you're gonna work for us someday!"

(At least give us credit for getting the rhyme right. :-))

Go 'Cats, beat MSU!

[Don Corleone]

The funniest is Tom Leher’s, “Fight Harvard” IMHO.

... the entire congregation responded with a ROLL TIDE that shook the roof.

Roll Tide

" Thanks for the link. I think the best promotion for ‘Bama was the opening scene from “Crimson Ride” where all the submariners yells “ROLL TIDE”. "

Excellent. I'd forgotten that, thanks.

Trent Dilfer: 'Tua Tagovailoa Could Go Unbeaten As Alabama QB'

"People said that I’m being hyperbolic with this comment, but I think Tua could go through his college career and never lose a game," Dilfer said. "I think he’s that kind of talent with the right supporting cast. I honestly could envision an Alabama team that beats everybody 50-3 with Tua as the quarterback."

I coached small college football years ago...I was at the NCAA Convention and had the opportunity to sit at the same table with coach Bryant one lunch...I and 8 others sat there just listening to whatever he said...Two things struck me as very true and have stayed with me through all the years..
1. Defense IS the game...You can run 50 plays on offense... Screw up 47 of them, but run 3 perfect and score 21 points.
You can run 50 plays on defense and run 47 of them perfect, but screw up only 3 and lose 21 points....
2. Most think the game is 60 minutes long, but each play actually only lasts 10-15 seconds...The rest of the time is trotting back to huddle and waiting to snap the ball...The actual playing time is only about 15-18 minutes...If your guys can’t go full speed for those 10-15 seconds and rest the other time, you ain’t coaching conditioning very well...

“...The SEC plays the best football but their fight songs are bland...”

“Rocky Top” is way better than big 10’s but not even close to
“the ramblin wreck from Georgia Tech”

Agreed, Conquest is so much more fun, and you get to watch Traveler circle the field after USC scores.
