5. TIE: Illinois and Florida State - "War Chant"
4. Southern California - "Tribute to Troy"
3. Tennessee - "Rocky Top"
2. Notre Dame - "Notre Dame Victory March"
1. Michigan - "The Victors"

Honorable Mention: Georgia Tech - "Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech" (mentions moonshine, rum, gambling, and hell)

BTW, there's a fight song I've heard on NCAA 10 that sounds like a tune from a Western movie or musical about prairie life. It's slower than "Boomer Sooner." Any ideas on what it might be?

The only one of those I know is Rocky Top.

I wouldn't even know one of the others if I heard it.

12/30/2009 9:47:16 PM

Rocky Top is great, but it's not the UT fight song

Yea, Alabama is the best college fight song ever

During WWII some B-52 bombers actually hooked up some speakers and played USC's Fight On during bombings.

12/31/2009 12:46:03 AM

I've disliked "Fight On" since hearing it 1,000 times in a row when USC beat Oklahoma 55-19 in the 2005 Orange Bowl.

12/31/2009 1:09:56 AM

LSU >>>>>>> Clemson

12/31/2009 1:46:50 AM

12/31/2009 3:42:51 PM

In all seriousness, "Willie's Chant" is the best school-related song. Anyone who thinks otherwise only likes other songs because they like the schools.



In second place, but only 1 vote behind, is the glorious classic from our neighbor to the west, Appalachian State: HOT HOT HOT!

App St. has a pretty awesome one

12/31/2009 3:59:55 PM

Illinois has a war chant? Get the fuck out. Fail. Suspend.

12/31/2009 4:34:14 PM

they sure do, and it rocks: http://www.fightmusic.com/mp3/big10/Illinois__War_Chant.mp3

12/31/2009 4:47:26 PM

I know it's not their fight song, but I've always like Alabama's "Rammer Jammer". There's nothing better than having over 92,000 fans pointing out how their team just beat the hell out of you.

Just because I'm an alum, I'll say NCSU- Fight Song and Red and White
the best Non-NCSU song, easily Georgia Tech

-Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech I'm a Hell of an Engineer
Helluva, Helluva, Helluva, Helluva an engineer
Like all my jolly good fellows I drink my whiskey clear
I'm a ramblin' wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer

..it goes on to talk about having your kids go to school there and yelling go to hell georgia.

1/7/2010 8:18:27 PM

Bit of a silly moment last night when my neighbor, who is a Bama grad and who I was watching the game with, did the Rammer Jammer cheer on his own along with the crowd on TV. Apparently they banned it in the 90s and only brought it back when the current AD was hired.

As a former band geek, I can say mine are:

1. Rocky Top
2. Hail to the Victors
3. Glory, Glory to Old Georgia
4. The Rouser (U of Minnesota)
5. U of Idaho (includes La Marseilles in one part)
