[@joshsalmons1867]

I've always liked Arkansas, Auburn, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, mississippi state, Tennessee, Oklahoma, USC west, and Ohio States fight songs. Tennessee's rocky top is the reason I started loving college football when I was younger. I was watching Tennessee and Arkansas in a competitive raining game and heard the band playing rocky top with rain drops bouncing off the bass drums. First time I ever heard rocky top.

[@hydraFB]

That sounds cool! Glad you like Arkansas’s!

[@timothythorne9464]

It's funny that everyone thinks "Rocky Top" is Tennessee's official fight song. Actually Rocky Top is of quite recent vintage, being written in 1967 by Nashville songwriters Felice and Boudleaux Bryant. The Tennessee song is actually "Down the Field", an ancient song played after each Tennessee TD (which have become rare in recent years; that's why it's so infrequently heard nowadays).

[@timothythorne9464]

#17 is the Tiger Rag, originally a fight song for LSU dating back to the 1920s!

For the love of god I can never figure out what time signature Ohio state’s fight song is

[@jordanmorris4090]

It is 4/4 or 2/4 (really there's no difference unless you're conducting it) but it does have a lot more syncopation than most fight songs

[@JFed4]

It’s just 4/4 lol

[@jackbond2418]

If you went across America and played 25 fight songs most people would recognized Michigan's, Ohio state, Florida state, Notre Dame , Oklahoma and USC

True but maybe not Florida state.

I am not a Seminoles fan, but just an old geezer. FSU in the late 80’s and early 90’s were perennial Top 5 and unstoppable ~ so their fight song was really recognizable ~ at least to a generation 😊

Wait, don't tell me. You graduated from Arkansas, correct? While any list of the best college football fight songs would be highly subjective, every list I have seen had Michigan and Notre Dame occupy the top 2 spots.

Incorrect. And this is MY list NOT POPULAR OPINION!

[@irahartoch1075]

I found it interesting that in your B1G rankings you used "Across the Field" for Ohio St., but "Buckeye Battle Cry" for your "all schools" rankings. Both are good but the Battle Cry will always get a better ranking imho (and I HATE Ohio State, but appreciate their songs).
