![[4K] Drummer's POV: Ohio State Marching Band GoPro Madness!](/img/n.gif)
This is an extremely polarizing list, meaning my #25 could easily be someone else’s #1 and there are going to be tons of disagreements here. Which, that is a good thing to have a list everyone interacts with differently. This list is my personal opinion. Let me know your thoughts/your top-10 or top-25 in the comments! Thanks for watching.
Georgia is my favorite so you predicted exactly what happened. I’m also probably biased about this.
#21 should be Bear Down Arizona. In addition, my top 25 are as follows.

It’s blowing my mind how I’ve heard all of these while playing NCAA through the years and never knew what schools most of them represented. This video brought back a lot of nostalgia.
Also, Rocky Top at #1 was an easy choice. GBO.
UT alum and fellow VFL here. Rocky Top isn't actually the fight song for UT. The OFFICIAL fight song is called Down the Field and is played everytime they score. I love Rocky Top, too. It's just not the fight song. It wasn't even released until 1968. However it is the UNOFFICIAL fight song.
It’s loved more by fans so it is the fight song, unofficial or not. At least we are finally back at the top
@@phatfield72 so Rocky Top shouldn't even be on this list (even though it's a great song). Another reason it's a bogus list.
@@duanem.1567also Tennessee is not, in fact, on top haha. That was short lived!
Roll Tide Roll
Anyone here preparing for NCAA 25?
Yessir
Same
🙋🏾♂️
Same
Heck yeah
I’m randomly stumbling onto this post while actively playing NCAA14, and i’m so glad to see Purdue’s fight song get love. I still remember the dynasty I had with them back in high school that went around 7 seasons. Elijah Sindelar is still a legend for his 7 TD performance against Maryland for me🥲
It was good to put Michigan in the top 5,but should of been number 2 or 1 but rocky top sold you surprised msu was in the top 5 and winsconsin should of, cracked in the 25
Boiler up!
Georgia Tech's Ramblin Wreck is very underrated!
The thumbnail of this video was a cock tease. Ramblin Wreck should definitely be here.
It’s the greatest.
Thank you! If Tech was a better football program, the fight song would probably get more recognition.
I'm not a Texas A&M fan but I have to give that band respect 👍
Awesome song.
The War Hymn should be in the top 10.
My friends son will be playing football for Texas A&M next year go Aggies
The Aggie War Hymn should be rated higher. Its lyrics were actually written by a cadet while fighting in the trenches during World War I.
The Aggie Marching Band always give a spectacular half time show! Their fight song should be rated in the top 5!
Amazing how they all sound so similar when played consecutively
Most are from the early 20th Century, and owe a lot to John Philip Sousa. One or two had a bit of a jazz vibe, though, which made them stand out a bit.
Except USC's at 23:52. #1 in my book.
@@joey325 Most annoying band. Never shuts up. Do they really need to play for every first down? Not cool when they’re in your house and they can afford to go to all games.
@@janach1305 I like the bands with a lot of drums
@@kristenwhite2701 you are suppose to play on 1st downs bud lol
Came here after Michigan won the championship. Dad went there so I grew up on their fight song. # 3 is a respectable ranking though it will always be # 1 in my book. Serious errors in not ranking Wisconsin and Notre Dame higher though.
Lmaooo same here! I’m a big LSU fan but I have Michigan’s fight song memorized bc of my dad
LSU fan here. I also think Michigan's fight song is a top 5. IMHO, USC's "Fight On" should be #1.
I hope that the new NCAA game has all of the schools fights songs in the background like how they used to do it!
Or at least have the option to have them play
That will be $2.99 per fight song
it doesnt lol
It should be.
Instead: 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Not a TN fan but living in NC, I always loved Rocky Top. Best sing along college football song in the nation.
I love the Osborne Brothers version
As an IU Marcher, Rocky Top Is best for singing along by far
So sorry But Best College song that is a Hit around the World is ALMOST HEAVEN WEST VIRGINIA, COUNTRY ROADS.!!!
@@robertmartin9677 Nah, Rocky Top is a much more fun song to sing especially when you have a good football team.
Ohio state’s is better
Notre dame is one of the best for sure, it’s a classic
My dad was in the navy and played DE for navy, always love watching the games with him. GO NAVY, BEAT ARMY
As a Michigander, I am happy to see MSU and U of Ms fight songs at 3 and 4. As a huge Michigan fan, I have U of Ms fight song at 1, but that might be a little biased. However, when your in the the big house and it’s packed with 112000 people all clapping and shaking Pom poms and yelling to the beat, it’s so powerful and really an amazing experience. I can’t imagine what opposing teams feel like when they have to play there.
Michigan fan here. You are NOT biased and OSU's campfire girl camp song from Camp Wathana should be licked off the list. Sparty is OK as long as they obediently lose. (I haven't been able to be obnoxious like this for two decades, feels great).
@@yidiandianpang Agree about OSU's fight song. The lyrics are really lame; 'Hail, hail, the gangs all here"?
The emotion, of the finale, after that short quieter bit...In "The VICTORS" is breathtaking! It truly is a masterpiece.
Georgia Tech's Ramblin Wreck is iconic...should be higher than 15!!
Even as UGA and UNC fan I agree with you, Ramblin Wreck IS Iconic and it's catchy too.
I an an Irish fan and LOVE our fight song, but the Georgia Tech song is so great, I became of fan of that team as well because of the song.
ua-cam.com/video/N2njKC5Iix8/v-deo.html
Born to one of the most savage tech fans, he and his dad both helluva engineers. I disappointed by going to nc state for bio and eventually get school, but I will always love my family’s school. Ramblin gamblin helluva engineer!
One of my 1st roommates after college was a Michigan State grad. He had the lyrics to the MSU fight song on a sweatshirt and the lyrics were printed upside down so that freshmen could sing them and learn them at games. Brilliant idea.
Rocky top Tennessee
How would the lyrics being printed upside down help people read them?
I went to Michigan and we just learned the lyrics. 😁
At Purdue, we printed the lyrics to the fight song above the urinals in the dorm. Everytime you took a whiz, you had access to the words. Plus, all freshmen were required to live in the dorms...so people got to learn it.
Hail to the victors!
Loved them all. My personal favorites in no particular order:ND, Tennessee, Michigan, Texas A@M, MSU and both Army and Navy
I love the songs from Auburn, Oklahoma, Clemson, and Michigan
I’m from Nebraska and I’m a Husker fan, and I love their fight song
yessir
me too
"The greatest college fight song ever written 'THE VICTORS' of the University of Michigan!"
John Phillip Souza (the march king)
Have to agree!
Go Blue! 💪🏈 💙
Damn right! Followed by Notre Dame at #2 and MSU at #3. (OSU maybe Honorable Mention).
MSU is better 100%
NATIONAL CHAMPS
It just sounds like the music of that Americana era. Really classic and classy. Love it 💛 💙
Rocky Top is just a song UT plays a lot. It isn’t actually their fight song. Their song is called “Down the Field.”
I love it, but absolutely correct,
bro they changed it to rocky to in the 90's 😂
@@VFLSamNo they didnt
@@VFLSamno they did not
@@briannilles1303and Down the Field is still number 1
Thrilled to see my MSU FIGHT SONG at # 4. Both strains played as well. Takes me back to those incredibly beautiful autumns in Michigan on that equally beautiful campus. Thanks so much for posting.
The guy who did this must be a Sparty. Even he couldn’t place this mediocre song above the victors…
Michigan is way better
Ohio is way better
MSU should be no.1, I’m saying this as a spartan, no hate
It sucks
As a life long Nebraska fan I love Nebraskas and minnesotas fight songs since Minnesotas fight song is my high school’s fight song
Minnesota has a better fight song than y'all
@@oklahomasoonersfootballshut up boy
yessir
@@oklahomasoonersfootballleast biased Oklahoma fan 😂
11:34 I’m going to Iowa State but I grew up being a Texas fan. I cant resist singing along to their fight song and cheering for them during games
Texas Fight should be in top 3
I’m a lifelong husker fan and I’d like to say that chanting gooo biggg reddd go big red at memorial stadium in Lincoln would be an experience of a lifetime for all u guys who love us and also the B1G teams such as Michigan also deserve the love
As a member of the cornhusker marching band, I would say Hail Varsity is more of our fight song than dear old Nebraska U but they're both great, I enjoy playing them both!
What instrument do you play
Hail Varsity is our official fight song, but shhhhhhh, Dear Old Nebraska U serves much better as our fight song. I wouldn’t put Hail Varsity in the top 9 of this list, even though I personally like it more than DONU. DONU just brings so much more to the table as a fight song imo!
Go piccolos ❤ love you Molly
Hail Varsity is the fight song for the Cornhuskers, but Dear Old Nebraska U is more of a theme for the entire university. Or at least, that’s how I’ve always seen it.
IDK, "HAIL to the team, the Scarrrr -let and Cream!" has better lyrics, and the "Go Huskers!" audience participation is a lot more fun. @@seanward7797
I think that OU’s, Texas’, and Georgia’s are criminally underrated.
OU's is very repetitive and not a full fight song in my opinion. Too simple.
@@cac3343 its just simple and perfect and theres nothing wrong with that lol
Texas fight song is super underrated I have been to game game it gives you chills if you are a fan of the other team
@@cac3343 EAT SH*T. Or shouls I have to say it more so that you can say that it's too repetitive!!!
Well o u sounds like the Circus is coming to town !!
Here in Houston,TEXAS , Ringling Brothers had a parade ! !!
As a Kid in remember all the pooper scoopers following the Elephants !!!! 😂🤣 Tigers n Bears in cages ! SEPARATELY OF COURSE !! But those Tigers would roar !! It would ECHO for Blocks over n over ! Tigers liked it n would keep it going for a while ! Kids were scared n plugging their ears ! Mom’s too !!
Personally, I have Michigan at #1, but Tennessee is a great choice as well. Navy's song is vastly underrated as fight songs go.
I agree, Michigan is #1. Especially when you are in the big house with 112000 people all waving Pom poms or clapping with the beat. It is truly an incredible experience
@@kristijantomic548 yes but neyland is a hell of an environment to play in the south 101,000 + is not far behind.
Being Go Blue all the way, I totally agree. But I have to admit Tennessee, and really Notre Dame are also deserving contenders. ... leaving Sparty behind as always.
Honestly, Navy, and Air Force also deserve much higher rankings
And few songs are more iconic than the FSU war chant
Michigan st is objectively better
I think anchors aweigh for Navy should be in the top 25
Hail to the Victors Valliant - by far the greatest opening line of them all.
It’s madness to not rank it the best.
GO BLUE
Notre dame fught sing, usc fight sing
Who ranked these and what was the criteria? I just can't agree. Obviously, I would have some bious to rank my favorite school song in first place, but I think it may be bious against it for the low ranking it got. Also, the military academies songs aren't really college fight songs, but songs of the branches of service. So if they aren't ranked, all three of them should be honorable mentioned. My top four would include Michigan State, USC, Michigan, and Notre Dame. And I just listed Them in order from 4 to 1. Certainly, my top three are probably the most famous of college fight songs.
Disgraceful rankings… Hail to the Victors #1
My definition is one I immediately recognize, so my tops would be Wisconsin, Navy, OU, A&M, Texas, ND, UM, USC, and Tenn. I would add NW and IU, but I live in Big Ten country.
Can't lie,HAIL West Virginia gets me Ready every time I hear it.Proud so Proud to be a MOUNTAINEER!!!! LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS!!
As a Michigan fan, I'll definitely admit by bias that the Michigan fight song should be #1. But I'll also say as a Michigan fan that Notre Dame's fight song should be a very close 2nd. Their fight song is amazing.
I would admit you’re wrong tenn better
lol I just left a comment saying the same thing, but I’m a ND fan. I always grew up thinking they had the two best fight songs. Growing up me and my boys would have debates on which school had the best ones and it was always UM and ND. Stanford’s instrumentals is dope too but UM and ND were always on top.
Agreed
I Agree as A ND fan . I don’t know who or how they managed these rankings. MI and ND fight songs are the best I’ve heard
I’m an Ohio State fan, and the first two songs I thought of were ND and UM. My high school in New Jersey had our own lyrics set to ND’s melody. And I could NEVER tell you the lyrics Columbus made up for UM’s melody🤣
I would put Nebraska at #1, but obviously I'm biased. "Rocky Top" is excellent.
This brings back memories of the old NCAA football game menus where they played nothing but fight songs. I miss those days
totally. i can hum all of them even if i don't know what school 80 percent of them are
The only fight song I know is Oregon Ducks and UCLA
I'm so happy i get to be a part of playing no place in BIG RED EXPRESS LETS GO 'SKERS
yessir
In our London office we had 30 people listening to all the songs and asked to ranked them. The University of Notre Dame’s Victory March was ranked the top favorite. Most of our office employees went to either Oxford and Cambridge with several musicians among them.
This sounds about right.
Which was #2?
I want to see the breakdown
Yes these rankings are criminal. I’m an osu fan but i’d rank Notre dame #1 Michigan #2 Osu #3. Any fight song with singing automatically loses 15 places with me lol.
Michigan’s fight song puts me to sleep
nothing beats being in the stands and singing rocky top with everyone else
Victors does. The man who created fight songs said it was the best fight song.
@@steamedclams5689 Thats your opinion
@@steamedclams5689 na rocky top is better
a lot of things beat that
you got that right.
John Philip Sousa, the most famous conductor of Military March songs and College Fight Songs in history said that "The Victors" was "one of the nation's finest military marches and the best original college fight song" he had ever heard. But certainly to college sports fans..."The Best" is in the ear of the beholder! Good list and it was great to see my 2 favorites in the Top 4!
The Victor along with USC and UCLA's stand out to me.
The Victors sounds like a funeral dirge. Both of Ohio State's fight songs, "Across The Field" and "Buckeye Battle Cry" are head and shoulders better than Xichigan's limp along song.
@@bigguy2823 OSU's "Across the field" sounds like a 1st grader wrote it. But we know...no Buckeye ever made it through the 1sr grade.
@@sandyfike841 At least it doesn't sound like it should be played accompanying crepe draped coffins.
@@bigguy2823let’s all agree that Tennessee has the best fight song
Notre Dame's Fight Song is #1 in my book.
“On Wisconsin” is the most popular fight song played by high school bands across the USA. Should be rated much higher.

1. Notre Dame
2. Boomer Sooner
3. Michigan
4. Colorado

@@upbeatproductions7614 Yeah sorry 😢 Michigan State doesn’t do it for me
@@Saturdayz_In_The_Fall Ok I guess…but many love Michigan State’s fight song
Ohio State bettter 🥱
Really depends on where you grew up and how much now as an adult you watch games. I’m a Buckeye but I’d put across the field about where it is. I’d have to say with a deep breath 1( hail to the victors/ Michigan, 2) hail hail to old Norte dame 3) rocky top/ Tennessee 4) fight on / USC 5) the eyes of Texas.
Let’s face it/ if you love college fight songs these are all excellent !!{ shout out to Navy/ Army/ Air Force academy’s as I’m a veteran
Thank you for your service sir!
Great to see an honest Buckeye, must have been hard to admit the truth. I hope we can keep pace this November.
Respectfully disagree. Good music is good no matter where you’re from. My family is nowhere near the Midwest, but ND and Michigan have the best fight songs of the entire country, and that’s not taking anything away from my Aggie War Hymn to say so (the melody is in fact not written specifically for the school like ND and Michigan’s). 😊
Good ole rocky top whoo rocky top Tennessee. That should be number one and glad to know it is!
John Philip Sousa said Michigan's "The Victors" was the greatest college fight song ever written.
😂 ok...
PERIOD!
good for him?
he wrote it!
@@snarki1906 Louis Elbel, Michigan student wrote it.
As an Ohio State fan, I have always enjoyed the Michigan fight song. The tune is catchy. But, I must admit, I have never learned the real words to it. Because I am an Ohio State fan!😂
I bet you know the words to Across The Field and Buckeye Battle Cry though 😂 dw I do too
@@Illytbh absolutely! I was raised right!
@@beckybennett9661 The only way to go honestly
As a Michigan fan I didn’t even know what the Ohio state fight song sounded like until this video, but I’m glad you like the Michigan one (the best one).
I think that out of all of these fight songs that the Texas Tech fight song sounds the best, it's fast pace, it's intense, and it sounds like a victory celebration after a battle. Same with Arizona State, I like the intense songs.
Georgia's "Glory, Glory," or "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," is played a lot, but "Hail to Georgia" -- usually played after the extra point or two-point conversion, is their true fight song. Go Dawgs!
And almost every single one of the three is a top 5 fight song. Hail to Georgia being the true #1
Nah copied auburns glory glory to ole auburn (jokes of course lol)
Same with UT, Rocky Top is played more buy "Down the Field" is our official fight song
@@she2realio I spell out Auburn every time I hear UGA play it
How 'bout them Dawgs?
Houston's Figh Song is super fun and up beat, I think it should crack the top #25 for sure. The Cougar Fight Song is so fun it could be used in a real song as the beat and backing track. It's been picked up by most Texas high schools band's as a football game song.
Don't think anyone North of Conroe 's ever heard it.
As a Sooner fan I've always loved the U of H fight song.
Houston’s fight song has always sounded to me as a mix-mash of other fight songs.
Having played in bands from Jr High through college (Washington, Bow Down!), I can tell you that most schools that don't have their own songs use Michigan and On Wisconsin. Classic and basic.😊
I think all the schools in Tacoma used Big 10 songs. Bow Down to Washington is too hard for most to play :)
Or Notre Dame- my school (in Texas!) actually uses that, with lyrics about itself!
Good point and thanks!
Nebraska is my number 1, but of course Notre Dame’s will always get me because of the movie “Airplane.” I went to UGA. 😊
Rocky Top is an absolute banger, but even if it wasn’t- the fact that the second verse alludes to murdering feds makes it #1 by default.😊
Apparently that verse is about my great great grandfather and great grandfather murdering two feds who came to steal their shine. At least that’s what my papaw swears it’s about. My family was always big in the shine business near Cades Cove.
...homemade always tastes better than that everclear 190.
So many of these are so similar. I like the unique ones like Clemson, USC, Arizona, Oregon, Oregon state, Tennessee and Florida
Who else listened to this an made you think back to NCAA video games
And now we get it back!
Nebraskas is so iconic I swear
fr
Notre Dame, USC, Alabama, Michigan and Oklahoma fight songs sound really good.
Notre dame's is annoying
@William MacDonald for the second time (or the first depending on the order you’d read them in) you’re annoying🥱
OU is a Yale derivative, unimpressed.
@@williammacdonald3173prolly a usc fan
Growing up and watching college football since the early 70s the most famous fight songs to me in no particular order are Oklahoma, Michigan, UCLA, Notre Dame, USC, Ohio State. These are the fight songs of the teams I remember who played the most on TV in the Keith Jackson days. Ohhh Nellie! Georgia's fight song sounds like the song "I've been workin' on the railroad" Lol!
That's "The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You" that borrows from the railroad. UGA uses the tune of Battle Hymn of the Republic.
There is no way that "Anchors Aweigh" only merits an honorable mention. Y'all are nuts.
I think everyone should have a school spirit phase in their life. My teen and early adult years in marching band and sports were defined by these sounds. Listening to these fight songs was definitely a comfort for me!
KU Jayhawk here who grew up in a Big 10 household. How on earth is “On Wisconsin” an honorable mention???? It actually sounds unique! It was one of a couple of school fight songs sampled in the Beach Boys’ “Be True To Your School,” for crying out loud! So many in this top 25 really are classics…but tastes clearly vary here…
they all sound unique if you know what you're listening to lol
My high school school has always used "On Wisconsin' as it's fight song. Highly underated here. Rock Chalk. 😀
On Wisconsin is a good song, one of the few you can hum easily. Most of the fight songs played in this post all sound the same after a couple of bars. USC, UCLA, Michigan, Notre Dame are the exceptions. KU is my favorite of them all and rarely gets mentioned. Taste is taste. And lousy taste is just that.
Big Ten Fight Songs > SEC Fight Songs
You’ve obviously never been in Kyle Field singing the Aggie War Hymn, and feeling the stadium move when the entire Aggie crowd starts to sway when they get to “Saw varsity’s horns off”.
Song clip cut off before it even got to that part.
Hopefully the lyrics will have real meaning again, soon. 2011 was a long time ago, it seems.
And sometimes (I've been there) no one knows which way to go! Sometimes it's so bad that they start to crash into each other!
"Don't worry, commentators- this is completely normal!"
As a Michigan Fan, I love the Sparty Fight song for sure. Very deserving #4, but of course gotta love HTTV being one spot above it lol
Definitely a lot of nostalgia for a lot of these even from teams outside my region like Texas, Georgia and Clemson aside from the more regional ones like Mich, MSU and ND which I think may be higher on my list lol
Rocky Top #1 is legit tho lol
Can’t wait for you to cry in a few weeks at the horseshoe
Your opinion sucks M******* OH IS BETTER
I love both teams but i like MSU slightly better.
As a MSU fan, I do like Michigan's fight song but definitely like MSUs better...not biased at all though lol
Tbh as FSU fan and alumn I'm glad you choose the actually Fight Song, I wish you took the longer version with the Intro, but I've seen so many times people think the War Chant is the Fight Song.
Still love how Georgia’s fight song is “The Battle Hymn of the Republic”, almost as if to say “yeah, we didn’t really love that whole Confederacy thing either”
Also, TAMU’s fight song is just “Goodbye, My Coney Island Baby” which is also the melody for the Vasectomy Song from Family Guy, so that’s all I hear when I hear TAMU’s fight song.
Also, Texas’ line about it being “Goodbye to A&M will finally make sense again, now that that Texas is moving to the SEC
Tx is set to “I’ve been working on the railroad…”. That’s all I hear.
About TAMU and "Coney Island Baby": this as a whole was chosen as the fight song in 1925, and only a few years passed between when this and the music were first released!
I respect my Tennessee volunteers being at number one but our real fight song is down the field🤫👍
Yes it is.
rocky top sounds better though lol
They oughta just change the official fight song to rocky top. It’s just so iconic
@@mississippifishing2716 personally I think they are both even but Rocky top is more iconic
Rocnky top is more memorable for us Vols fans, but down the field will always hold the same place in our hearts. Most of us even know the lyrics,
"Here's to ole Tennessee
never we'll sever
we pledge our loyalty
for ever, and ever
backing our football team
faltering never
cheer and fight
with all of your might
for
Tenn-Ess-Ee"
I love the trombone rips in Clemson’s fight song. Definitely one of my favorites.
LSU plays it better
Clemson whole existence is a copy of other schools.
@@geaux13saints56 … no, sir, no it does not
Is it just me or was anyone else just vibeing with BAMAs fight song like I have never realized how good it was till now🔥🔥
So weird. It's as methed out as their mascots eyes.
Thanks for making this list. Great to listen to. Im not a fan of Notre Dame but them being at 7 is silly. I know it’s subjective but they gotta be top 3. Great fun to listen to all the great songs. Well done! Love Rocky Top!
As someone whos high school uses Notre Dame's fight song, I appreciate that 😂
Notre Dame sucks
Yeah ND needs to be higher
Notre Dame would be #1 on my list
@oklahoma sooners football there is no need to come onto a random reply thread and say another team sucks. it’s annoying, offtopic, and disrespectful. if you are going to disrespect a team however, atleast think about how your (unranked) team sucks more
Born in Knoxville, Tennessee and Dad graduated from the UofM. Glad to see both schools in the top three!
Having been born and raised in Hollywood, I just wanted to add that one of the nice things about USC is that they really have three distinctive songs. So they also do Conquest and Tusk. You can see how the worlds of movies and music both help define the unique position of this school.
I mean where else would you imagine something like this taking place? ua-cam.com/video/ATMR5ettHz8/v-deo.html
And I think just about everyone (except for a few aging fossils like me) may have forgotten where Conquest originally comes from... ua-cam.com/video/QZLMPZbj8So/v-deo.html
And the rest of the PAC ZERO can't stand USC! Learn more tunes!
I'd put Notre Dame and Michigan at #1 and 2, in either order.
My top 3 are those two in that order, but with TAMU between them (Notre Dame, A&M, MI, and then probably Navy)
As a proud Tennessee fan I’m so happy to see Rocky Top at number 1
What’s up man! I agree. Go Vols!
@@volsrock1171 go vols
That’s not a fight song…that’s a victory song.
If you are a true VOLS fan shouldnt you know that Rocky Top is not our fight song? It is actually "Down the Field." Very common misconception.
@@P13MAN2013 bro I know down the field is our fight song but they didn’t put they put Rocky top and I was just saying i was proud to here it even though it’s not a fight song
Texas A&M doesn't have a fight song. It's a WAR HYMN.
But... it's their closest thing!
same thing
Fun Fact I am a diehard Orange Blooded Vols fan and I am happy to see Rocky Top as the #1 song... however the official fight song for Tennessee is "Down the Field" its played after they score through the extra point and then Rocky Top starts. But I do think it is the most loved/hated song in college football.
marched 4 years in the Pride of the Southland..... fun fact about "Down the Field" - the music for "Looney Tunes" superimposes over "Down the Field"perfectly - and, despite the directors' best efforts, roughly half of the UT trombone players at any given time are actually playing the Bugs Bunny theme song when they are supposed to be playing Down the Field - if you were on an away game and Dr. Julian caught a trombone player doing that, you might have to find your own way back to Knoxville (don't worry - plenty of Tennessee RV's will be happy to have you along for the ride back to campus if you are wearing the band uniform - had a couple of trombone playing friends who had to get a ride back from Birmingham in 93.... and another from South Carolina in 92 - just make sure you check the license plate before you get in otherwise you might hear Alabama banjos...)
...John Philip Sousa once said that the Michigan fight song was the best he ever heard....
John Philip Sousa died almost 100 years ago.
@@martinbentleykrebs2486 ...so did pretty much everybody else 100 years ago..your point?
I disagree on the order of your top 4 but respect. It's all the teams I'd have. I'd probably put Navy at 5
This is a good list, but two of the most instantly recognizable fight songs being honorable mention is an oversight: On Wisconsin and Anchors away.
**Aweigh. REfers to hauling the anchor up to leave port
I agree...I was shocked when OW came up in the honorable mention....It's in my top 10
Interesting: "On Wisconsin" was submitted to a 1909 contest to write a fight song for the University of Minnesota. When it was rejected in favor of the Minnesota Rouser, it was subsequently offered to Wisconsin and accepted.
I bet the name had a lot to do with that. Lol.
Both MN and WI belong far above the two AZ schools!!
Thanks for posting. And, yes, the list is polarizing. LSU fan here, but I think USC has the best fight song, "Fight On". Tenn, Michigan & ND are rightly placed very high on the list.
Whoever made this video knows it’s volunteers all the way. I was born in East Tennessee and I will forever bleed orange and white. 🔥❤️
You lose a lot of credibility in my eyes when you put a song at number 1 that isn't even a fight song. Rocky Top is not the Tennessee fight song
That's true, but it's still one hell of a song....and "Rocky Top...you'll always be...Home Sweet Home to me!" Go Vols!
Notre Dame, Michigan and USC in no particular order and then all the rest…
With the 2023 season about a month away I needed this to get in the mood. ROLL TIDE!!!
From a Tennessee fan to an Alabama fan, one thing is for sure, we both hate Georgia. GBO 🍊
Amen!!
@@robertroyal8893 I'm excited for the bama game this year, hope it's as exciting as last year!
Much as I despise Notre Dame, The Victory March is College Footballs greatest fight song. Beyond question. My own Top Five would include USC, Michigan, Texas, Alabama, and Notre Dame at number one. As a Michigan State fan, I appreciate you having the Spartans at the lofty number four position. Overall, it's a wonderful list. Nebraska and Tennessee are strong top ten selections. Congratulations on putting your neck on the chopping block with these picks. Great list!!
Even tho it's not considered a "Fight Song", it's played and sang after every home victory and loved ALL AROUND the world. West Virginia University Mountaineers 'Country Roads' by John Denver.
true: it's the top-rated song at Octoberfest! The Germans know every word! They just belt it out!
I love that song and the WVU fight song as well. Going to miss playing you guys. Good luck in the Big 12 Conference. Boomer Sooner!
@garywest8705 same here... I understand why y'all moved, but I wished it hadn't happened. Texas...I could care less, but I've always got along with a majority of Sooners fans. Good luck in the SEspnC. Yes, that's a jab at espn.
By the way I love your mascot "The Mountaineer" in his buckskin and coonskin hat carrying his musket. He's one cool dude.
My high school in Wisconsin had notre dames fight song. Will always love it.
My college does too- and I'm in Texas!
Makes me think about the old and next NCAA Football when you'll score a touchdown
Honestly Michigan's slaps
After the top 3 the rest are very similar and the top 3 are: #3 USC Trojans, #2. U. Of Michigan, #1. Notre Dame.
22:45 THE OHIO STATE BUCKEYES ❤️🩶🤍❤️🩶 long live Haskins 💔😢🕊️
Be a usc trojans fan I think # 1Norte dame #2 usc trojans and # 3 Michigan has the best fight songs of all-time. Growing up just waiting for USC and Michigan coming down Colorado Boulevard in the Rose Parade and listening to these fight songs
You got the top ones right TN, Michigan, Nebraska, Ohio State, Notre Dame….all classics
I think Wisconsin got the shaft.
My school doesn't always have the best football team, but they do have one of the best fight songs -
Glad to be a Ramblin Wreck from Georgia Tec'K'...!!!
I do think we should be a little higher than 15, but hey at least we weren't 25 like UGA.
We can't beat them in the football rankings, but at least our fight song is original & fun (& pays homage to a tradition of producing many alcoholic engineers).
BTW,, I've always found it amusing that Univ of GA picked "Battle Hymn of The Republic" as its fight song since most of its fans are Confederates.
Die hard Notre Dame fan here, my father bled the Fighting Irsih and told me that Rocky Top was 100% the best fight song. I agree.
As a boilermaker, I gotta say that our fight song is pretty baller and fun to sing
Boiler Up
Btfu
You really have to combine the Arkansas fight song with the Hog Call…”Whooo Pig Sooie!” to get the full effect. It’ll send chills up your spine while standing on the sideline!!!
Totally agree! WPS!
WOO PIIIGG SOOIIEE! RAZORBACKS! 🐗🐗
Hog wild
Hail to the Victor's! Go Blue
How in the world USC Trojans fight song is not ranked? I think it’s the best fight song ever.
I’m biased but I think BYUs fight song is extremely underrated
