I don’t know about OK....................
Hail! to the victors valiant
Hail! to the conqu’ring heroes
Hail! Hail! to Michigan
The leaders and best!
Hail! to the victors valiant
Hail! to the conqu’ring heroes
Hail! Hail! to Michigan,
The champions of the West!
Go Blue!!
Taht one is great.
Yes, I know that one.
How did Ohio State not make the list?
“They got the Victors and Anchors Aweigh right. It helps when you have John Phillip Sousa write your fight song for you.”
“Anchors Aweigh” was written by USNA Bandmaster Charles Zimmermann.
Best cheer:
Eww saw saw eww saw saw, hit in the head with a kielbasa.
Eww saw see eww saw see, hit em in the knee with a so la mi.
I stand (sit) corrected. John Phillip Sousa first played the Victors but did not write it. I didn’t realize he did not write Anchors Aweigh either.

Roar Lions, Roar!

Song is ok, but they do have the best damn band in the land. I saw a double script Ohio live. Never saw the quad live.

Fight that team across the field;
Show them Ohio’s here.
Set the Earth reverberating
With a mighty cheer:
O-HI-O!
Hit that line and see how they fall.
Never let that team get the ball.
Sing
“Hail, hail, the gang’s all here,
And we’ll lick Michigan today!
A&M is the only school with a War Hymn.
And their version of the t.u. fight song is great.
“Texas bite, Texas bite, Texas jump up and bite my ass.....
Or Austin Peay?
Which was stolen by the Atlanta Braves, and in some circles is associated with them.
“Braves are gonna lose;
Braves are gonna lose.”
(Repeat. Often.)
Yeah, great game, we beat ya the next time though
Love playing the great teams like Texas, lived there for awhile and I know how much they love football!
