I'm surprised they ranked it so low along with NFL on Fox. I mean don't get me wrong SNF has the best theme but seriously why put NHL on NBC and NFL on Fox so low? Also where's NBA on NBC?
Man I’ve only watched a bit of hockey this year but that NHL on NBC theme feels so nostalgic to me The MLB of FOX one got me in the feels Edit: NHL on ESPN goes hard af
@@duffal0 I think MLB on Fox used to play in the early 2010s and I was pissed when they got rid of Fox Sports Network for Bally Sports but I quickly got used to it, I like the scores being directly at the bottom without potentially blocking anything
Hearing is one of the stronger senses that brings back a memory, smelling is too, like getting a whiff of something from your childhood it’ll bring back so many memories
Missing: NBA on NBC (Roundball Rock) NHL on ESPN The original Hockey Night in Canada NFL on CBS, late-1980s "Pots and Pans" Monday Night Football (Heavy Action) Also, the original version of the CBS NCAA, not the current remix that just vamps over the same couple of bars ad nauseum.
LOL yeah it's nothing like waking up on a late Sunday morning getting ready for some NFL football by hearing your local and National analysts talk about your favorite teams and the days match ups!.. definitely one of the best days to look forward to my football season comes around
College Basketball on ESPN 2011-2016 was always my favorite. Whenever it was the conference tournaments, it was awesome to hear that theme for the Horizon League conference championship.
The fact that the classic MNF theme is not on here is not only a travesty, but shows just how in the moment we have become. Sure, some great themes on here, but the cold, piano intro of MNF was a fixture for decades! I love it when they break it out still today!
Out of the 15 on this list: 1) CBS College Football 2) Thursday Night Football (2009-13) 3) CBS College Basketball 4) NHL on NBC 5) NFL on CBS 6) MLB on Fox 7) NFL on Fox 8) ESPN College Football 9) ESPN College Basketball 10) NBA on TNT 11) Thursday Night Football (CBS era) 12) Sunday Night Football 13) MLB on TBS 14) NBA on ESPN 15) World Series on FOX Since you didn’t limit yourself to current themes, I’d bump the bottom few for the NBA on NBC (#1), NHL on ESPN (#6), the second-to-most recent NFL on CBS theme (#12), and the ABC College Football theme (the “Marching Band” version that was also used for Basketball) (#15).
My personal top 10: 10. Monday Night Football The most iconic theme song in all of North American sports. Fight me on this one if you'd like, but I think it deserves a mention. 9. Hockey Night In Canada (2014-present) Yeah, I'm a Canadian. We have some really good sports songs north of the border. 8. NHL on NBC This one can get you really pumped. Excellent song for hockey broadcasts. 7. NFL on CBS (1991-93, 1998-2003) I love the opening part of this song. Sadly, no good recordings of this seem to exist. 6. FOX NFL This song just screams football. It's been going strong for 25 years, and will likely keep going forever. 5. NBA on NBC UrinatingTree introduced me to this wonderful song. While I'm not so keen to put Roundball Rock any higher, I understand why so many people love it to death. 4. Thursday Night Football (2009-13) I miss the Christmas bells and epic orchestration of this one. NFLN still uses it occasionally for a few of their programs, but I feel that they need to make this the theme of TNF again. 3. ESPN Sunday Night NFL (mid-1990's) Best NFL theme of them all. How this one didn't make it into this video baffles me. 2. FOX MLB (1996-2010 for national broadcasts, still used for team-specific broadcasts) Why the hell did FOX replace this with the NFL theme? As much as I love the FOX NFL song, this fits baseball better and is actually a better song in general. 1. CBS College Football/SEC on CBS This, right here, is the pinnacle of sports themes. I love it to death, and I don't even watch collegiate sports.
Recently in 2022 roundball rock is a classic but no one can deny the NHL returning to ESPN is legendary. When you heard those drums go off you knew it was go-time
The NBA on NBC theme by John Tesh is the best of all time and it’s not even close. Some good choices on this list for sure, but without the best this list is too flawed to be valid.
the MLB on Fox theme is back in 2020, also that theme was also used between 2009 and 2020 on Fox Sports Regional Networks such as Fox Sports Kansas City
MLB on Fox brought back this cool version! Not copying off NFL anymore. Jon Miller/Joe Morgan Sunday Night Baseball 2000s, ESPN College basketball 2000s, college basketball on CBS, NBA Finals on ABC, MLB on TBS are my favorites.
1. Forgot how good the FOX MLB is. 2. No NBA on NBC or Monday Night Football? 3. NFL Primetime is missing. 4. I imagine this is an American list, but any sports intro theme is incomplete without the classic Hockey Night In Canada.

That's not true exercise. Banging on the drums is.
Lol
Listening to this during corona SZN got me crying cant lie
Money Matton - these these hit different right now
Money Matton same I will sit and hum them all say
When that SEC on CBS hits I become incapacitated
Money Matton FAXXXX😭😭😭
Money Matton on God
If you’re a fan of an SEC college football team, that CBS college football theme is just a special sound.
An amazing piece of music.
A good way to watch Vanderbilt get blown out.
@@doncarpenter1040 Hell yeah. There was no doubt in my mind that it wouldn't be number 1, until I saw that it wasn't.
@@ryanjustice2670 The creator of this vid must not be a SEC fan
i get tears every time i hear it
NBA on TNT= Mario Kart music
LMAOOOOOOOOOOO
And there’s nothing wrong with that
NHL on NBC is top five for me especially during playoffs it just has that feeling of playoff hockey. Get chills
#1 for me
I'm surprised they ranked it so low along with NFL on Fox. I mean don't get me wrong SNF has the best theme but seriously why put NHL on NBC and NFL on Fox so low? Also where's NBA on NBC?
Apache Helicopter Olympics? World Cup?
i don’t watch hockey like at all during the regular season but playoff hockey is a must watch especially if my sharks are in the playoffs
Playoff hockey is hands down the best things in sports. College football is a close 2nd tho.
They all good, but the NFL on CBS during thanksgiving is a different vibe
Favts facts facts
oh hell yes
Fax
That screams Lions getting embarrassed on national television.
It's epic, maybe a little too epic for some people but it's one of the only themes I can think of being played during a battle.
SEC on CBS is laughably low and MLB on TBS is nauseating
ringworm9 fax
TBS is good
TBS coverage is OK, but their baseball music is lousy. I’m with ringworm9 on that.
tbs sounds like shark tank or am I crazy
Matthew Foote oh damn u right i never thought of that😂
Number 1: Sunday night football on NBC - theme by John Williams
“The force is strong with this one”
I recorded and mixed that :)
I thought it had March on the Jedi Temple vibes 💀
NBA ON TNT JUST GOT DISRESPECTED NO CAP
NO 🧢🧢🧢🧢
Yes sir
It’s not that good
being played on a 3ds
Kinda sounds like it should belong in a Wii game tbh

AND AFTER 2024 WE DONT GET TO HEAR IT😭😤
That's one of the best and the longest since 87 I think. It was originally the CBS NFL theme.
The 3 Prankskateers SEC don’t matter they had it before when the big East was around
Kyles face is definitely how I feel hearing the old mlb fox theme.
You put the MLB-TBS theme on number nine over the fox-MLB classic theme. Wow, this is heresy.
No MLB theme will ever top the MLB on FOX theme from 96-09. Personally, I would say no sports theme would top it, but, that's just me.
Right? This theme defines baseball!
Even more heresy is excluding NFL on Fox from the podium.
Tbs theme is awesome and at least original. Fox baseball
Just uses the nfl theme . Lazy.
NFL on Fox, on a cool crisp October or September afternoon😍😍
november too
Until they said you know what play this theme for all the sports
On Sunday afternoon, after you'd heard the MLB one on Saturday. Those were the days
It’s always a Cowboys, Packers, or Seahawks game too
@@anthonywnek Fox is normally NFC and CBS AFC so yes.
Yo I got mad nostalgia from the college basketball on ESPN from (2011-2016) underrated
Forgot about that one 😢
This guy has non functional ears dude
games going on during the week or the usual Saturday night ranked game hits different
Yeah baby!
Fox absolutely needs to bring back the baseball theme. No idea why they decided to use the football theme as a generic catch all.
Because Generic defines FOX, and luckily they brought it back!
They did
Cbs March madness theme had me with actual tears
especially after missing it this season
Nothing better than good weather on an Autumn day hearing the College Football theme
SEC on CBS
its going to the big 10 now:( @@holasoyalejandro9822
Man I’ve only watched a bit of hockey this year but that NHL on NBC theme feels so nostalgic to me
The MLB of FOX one got me in the feels
Edit: NHL on ESPN goes hard af
Never heard the MLB one but then again who has lol. NBA on TNT and NFL on NBC the best
@@duffal0 I think MLB on Fox used to play in the early 2010s and I was pissed when they got rid of Fox Sports Network for Bally Sports but I quickly got used to it, I like the scores being directly at the bottom without potentially blocking anything
NHL on NBC is underrated
Only to hockey fans
Lets go Pens
Every one of these bring back memories. So crazy how we connect music with a time ,place or thing .
Hearing is one of the stronger senses that brings back a memory, smelling is too, like getting a whiff of something from your childhood it’ll bring back so many memories
SEC ON CBS SHOULD BE NUMBER ONE!!!! PERIOD!!!!
Yeah but like SNF was composed by John Williams
Ok bama fan
Andrew K um no that’s a very popular opinion from even non sec fans
Fax
No NBA on Nbc Is Number One All Time
God I miss sports
Missing:
NBA on NBC (Roundball Rock)
NHL on ESPN
The original Hockey Night in Canada
NFL on CBS, late-1980s "Pots and Pans"
Monday Night Football (Heavy Action)
Also, the original version of the CBS NCAA, not the current remix that just vamps over the same couple of bars ad nauseum.
NHL on ESPN being left off is a travesty
American list, they're never gonna feature OG HNIC even though its basically the second Canadian national anthem.
MLB on Fox is unparalleled. Glad they brought it back.
NFL on FOX is waaaay too low
I agree
4 real, i grew up on this. and im even not from the states!
Not really, I like CBS, NBC, and MNF more than it
Me realizing this theme is from nfl
Anyone else think of the certain announcers or great moments from these themes, like I can just hear Al Michaels on the NBC theme
Rydawg 26 i hear chris fowler with college playoff theme, i bear verne and gary with the cbs
NHL on NBC. Eddie and Doc
Mahomes winds up and I going to launch downfield to watKINS SAMMY WATKINS FOR THE TOUCHDOWN

@@cadenstephens138 if you’re thinking about Mahomes as nostalgic you gotta be 7 years old lmao.
CBS college football is the best by a WIDE margin.
Wilson Key yes sir ✊🏼
You are very correct
Exactly right. I mean they put it at #8 behind ESPN NBA theme? Their ears must not be functional; like not even in the same universe.
Wilson Key, Ironically first used by CBS for Super Bowl XXI Giants vs Broncos
Yep, and nothing else comes close
NFL and college football on cbs is way too low. My personal favorite is cbs college basketball. Really missing that rn 😢
Savage Carlos we all are😢
This list is invalid without NBA on NBC. Greatest theme of all time.
True!!
Its now used for FOX College Hoops
CBS College Basketball - number 1 and it's not even close. It's an atrocity that it's number 2 on this list.
agreed
Sammy Sharps this theme sucks
I'm not sure what the heck your talking about
It should be like 12
Sunday night football is the best
Its too happy to be number 1, nbc on sunday makes me want to eat another mans heart
👍🏻
Where is NBA on NBC?!!
Immediately disregarded this when they didnt include NBA on NBC which is top 5
In the 90s
KingSkyLord Thank you! Truly the greatest!
Nate Zukoski it should of been number one, it’s the best
WHO? NBA ON NBC??
I love the NFL ON FOX theme song number 1 for me
I only Like the fox NFL theme.
4KT.Fabian_ it’s so Overrated
Peter Elder how? It’s god tier
Call me crazy, but NFL on Fox makes me think about the Sleigh Ride Christmas song. ‘Giddy Yup, giddy yup, giddy up let’s go, let’s look at the show’
LOL yeah it's nothing like waking up on a late Sunday morning getting ready for some NFL football by hearing your local and National analysts talk about your favorite teams and the days match ups!.. definitely one of the best days to look forward to my football season comes around
College Basketball on ESPN 2011-2016 was always my favorite. Whenever it was the conference tournaments, it was awesome to hear that theme for the Horizon League conference championship.
I love how CBS has used the same college football theme for 30+ years. I wish they'd go back to the old ncaa tournament music from the early 90s
CBS College Football is CLEARLY #1 (and then CBS college basketball or ESPN college football a distant second).
As far as pump up factor; CBS college football theme is on par with "Eye of the Tiger".
CBS college football is the best by far
Gives me feels every time
The fact that the classic MNF theme is not on here is not only a travesty, but shows just how in the moment we have become. Sure, some great themes on here, but the cold, piano intro of MNF was a fixture for decades! I love it when they break it out still today!
Absolutely love the Sunday night football theme
Chris S The best!
Until you realize you have school/work Tomorrow
The US Open golf theme from NBC is rarely heard anymore but I love it. Slept on classic theme song
Sorry real sports only :)
You need the Olympics theme from nbc
go Irish and also go bucks and also muck fichigan
Mike Biederman Go Irish☘️
Go Hooisers :D
its.chummy .....45-14.......
Go Green!
NFL on Fox is iconic.
I’d put NFL on ESPN there just because of those mad nostalgic fantasy football draft flashbacks
How could you forget the Olympics on NBC theme
MLB on fox is easily top 5 and wayyyy over mlb on tbs
NBA on NBC anyone?
Out of the 15 on this list:
1) CBS College Football
2) Thursday Night Football (2009-13)
3) CBS College Basketball
4) NHL on NBC
5) NFL on CBS
6) MLB on Fox

10) NBA on TNT
11) Thursday Night Football (CBS era)
12) Sunday Night Football
13) MLB on TBS

15) World Series on FOX
Since you didn’t limit yourself to current themes, I’d bump the bottom few for the NBA on NBC (#1), NHL on ESPN (#6), the second-to-most recent NFL on CBS theme (#12), and the ABC College Football theme (the “Marching Band” version that was also used for Basketball) (#15).
William Yeager Sunday night football is kinda low, for me it’d be much higher
My personal top 10:
10. Monday Night Football
The most iconic theme song in all of North American sports. Fight me on this one if you'd like, but I think it deserves a mention.
9. Hockey Night In Canada (2014-present)
Yeah, I'm a Canadian. We have some really good sports songs north of the border.
8. NHL on NBC
This one can get you really pumped. Excellent song for hockey broadcasts.
7. NFL on CBS (1991-93, 1998-2003)
I love the opening part of this song. Sadly, no good recordings of this seem to exist.
6. FOX NFL
This song just screams football. It's been going strong for 25 years, and will likely keep going forever.
5. NBA on NBC
UrinatingTree introduced me to this wonderful song. While I'm not so keen to put Roundball Rock any higher, I understand why so many people love it to death.
4. Thursday Night Football (2009-13)
I miss the Christmas bells and epic orchestration of this one. NFLN still uses it occasionally for a few of their programs, but I feel that they need to make this the theme of TNF again.
3. ESPN Sunday Night NFL (mid-1990's)
Best NFL theme of them all. How this one didn't make it into this video baffles me.
2. FOX MLB (1996-2010 for national broadcasts, still used for team-specific broadcasts)
Why the hell did FOX replace this with the NFL theme? As much as I love the FOX NFL song, this fits baseball better and is actually a better song in general.
1. CBS College Football/SEC on CBS
This, right here, is the pinnacle of sports themes. I love it to death, and I don't even watch collegiate sports.
A few left out, NBA on NBC, NHL on FOX, NBA on FSN (2 versions)
World Series on fox is top 5 easy
CBS college football theme is the GOAT! Such a banger
bro wheres the NASCAR on FOX theme at? and why is the NFL on FOX theme so low?
This joker doesn't know how to make a true list. NASCAR on Fox theme 🔥 and SEC on CBS should be #1
AZtronics Seriously. And also forgot NBA on NBC, probably the most iconic network sports theme in history. Terrible list.
Recently in 2022 roundball rock is a classic but no one can deny the NHL returning to ESPN is legendary. When you heard those drums go off you knew it was go-time
I am disappointed NBA on NBC did not make this list.
Original Hockey night in Canada theme is king🇨🇦👍🏒
NFL on cbs theme is so good whenever I hear it before a jets game I get so pumped
The NBA on NBC theme by John Tesh is the best of all time and it’s not even close. Some good choices on this list for sure, but without the best this list is too flawed to be valid.
Man, the NFL on Fox theme had me feeling some kind of way...back when I was about that life.
How does this not have more views?
Because it’s not very good.
5:03 “welcome to the swamp as Florida hosts Georgia for a beautiful midday matchup.”
Since when did Florida host Georgia in the swamp? That’s always in Jacksonville.
This is missing the Canadian intro for CBC Hockey night in Canada and NBA on NBC

One truly forgotten one is the BCS theme. Imo that one is the most underrated of all time.
It's bad enough that the NBA on NBC and NHL on ESPN themes weren't #1 and #2...unbelievable that neither are on the list at all...
5:04 anytime I hear this I know when it’s gonna be a good game

NFL on CBS is mad underrated
8:48 the best one! (In my opinion)
Fox on NFL is always going to be my all-time favorite.
I listened to this video all the time in 2020 when we didn’t have sports and it helped me through
NFL on CBS especially in the early 10’s all you think of is Patriots,Ravens,Steelers, and Broncos 😂
NFL theme songs be flat out war-like
#2 got me in that March Madness feeling
My favorite is the Thursday Night Football NFL theme. It sounds elegant, extreme and epic at the same time somehow.
You can also imagine some video highlights and a commentator jntro over it
Man, I miss that 2014-2017 TNF theme!
NFL on CBS is so underrated
College Basketball on CBS. Nothing beats that.
No "Roundball Rock"? The heresy! Haha
Crazy the memories hearing these bring
I will sit and hum these all day

@@pepperybread738 now Fox Sports regional Networks are Bally Sports Network and Fox Sports National broadcasts now in sole of the MLB on FOX Theme

Jon Miller/Joe Morgan Sunday Night Baseball 2000s, ESPN College basketball 2000s, college basketball on CBS, NBA Finals on ABC, MLB on TBS are my favorites.
8 should be in the top 5
All feels when those SEC on CBS drums hit! 5:03
So glad we got to hear some of this
World Series on Fox...my goodness...
I'd forgotten that one. So epic
#6 always plays during the Saints vs Falcons Games its so epic
Where's the NBA On NBC theme??? Only the BEST THEME EVER!!!
1. Forgot how good the FOX MLB is.
2. No NBA on NBC or Monday Night Football?
3. NFL Primetime is missing.
4. I imagine this is an American list, but any sports intro theme is incomplete without the classic Hockey Night In Canada.
CBS so much better at theme songs than other networks.
The Stanley Cup Playoffs with that NBC NHL theme. 😃
MLB on Fox give me chills!!
as someone born and raised on alabama and SEC football that CBS brings a tear to my eye
NFL on cbs is underrated!
The NFL on CBS theme could get a person hyped enough to run through a brick wall. That theme goes hard.
The memories wow
Thank you for making this
SEC on CBS is #1
College Basketball on CBS #2
NHL on NBC #3
cbs college football with sec is the best no one will top it
I live in Louisiana so Ik abt the SEC on CBS I think it’s top 3
