Every team since Marshall in the 70's has been allowed to do that man No. Because they have 12 true freshmen at the caliber/level to compete and win a national championship like that.

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I started pulling for Alabama in the 3rd quarter Monday night simply because I got tired of hearing Georgia's band constantly playing the same thing over and over again. And I thought Union's band was repetitive... Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VT constantly plays he H O K I E S HOKIES chant. FSU has the war chant. USC has their litttle tag. UF has the Go Gators thing. Just about every band has “that song.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol HOKIES is only after every first down... don't know enough about your other examples to comment. The UGA riff was cool at first, but then it got old, then it got infuriating. It's like that song you really really like... are you going to play it on repeat over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again for every mile of a 4 hour road trip? No, you're not, because it will eventually get old and you'll be tired of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listened to the new Justin Timberlake song called Filthy 32 times according to my iPhone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way bigger than anticipated (I guessed 12k attendance, My buddy guessed 9k: it’s axurally 14.5k). Parking wasn’t too bad once I found the Media lot. My only complaint was the Media seating was behind the basket, but about 50 feet from the court and very low. At least at VT, you’re behind the basket but it’s up high with a nice angle and not that far away. But overall a fun experience. It will be the bottom of my list this season, though. Hard to top Rupl, Cameron Indoor and JPJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one cares who was ranked #1 in week 5 of 1990. Only UVA fans even know that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They play Glory Glory in a normal/slow pace when time or at a super quick annoying pace about 120 times a game traditionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first thing they play in the video below is Phantom. Is that the song you were taking about, @swva_havok_fan??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam McPoyle 1,863 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Is this the song, @swva_havok_fan? Or does UGA's band have multiple songs that are horribly annoying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 It was definitely Georgia's band because the song was played the entirety of the Rose Bowl also, it just didn't start getting infuriating till about the second quarter of the championship game.

Ryan4VT 4,554 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Ah, that's Dies Irae. It's an old latin hymn that translates to "Day of Wrath." It's mainly known from being in the Requiem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
