Of course these days, Tennessee would happily take being second in the SEC.

Bama fans haven’t heard Rocky Top too much in the past decade or so. But by now Vols fans know the words to Rammer Jammer. :)

I live in California, when wearing my KU gear in public I almost always hear a “Rock Chalk” from someone.

I think “Ramblin’ Wreck” might be the best one of all, or at least in the top two or three. But it hasn’t been heard as widely as some since they’ve had pretty average teams for quite a few years.

Naaaaaaah!

The best by far is Notre Dame's Victory March. I got 'roused listening to it, and I have no connection to Notre Dame, am not Catholic, and don't like football.

The next best wasn't even on the list: Georgia Tech's I'm a rambling' wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer. And I went to Georgia!

Number 3 is Anchors Aweigh! Who could argue with that?

Number 4 is the Tiger Rag.

Number 5: On Wisconsin!

The rest are all also-rans.

Yeah. I thought that Oklahoma fight song was Boola Boola from Yale. Was I wrong?
