Pregame: Rose Bowl Game - Ohio State vs. Utah (Jan. 1, 2022)

[@mattbrew11]

I was at the game. As an alum having been to ~ 65 games that was one of the best, most emotional games ever. Amazing day so lucky to have been there and it was my very first Rose Bowl. The stealth bomber flyover was awe inspiring To the TBDBITL: Thank you! Your performance was as typical, mesmerizing and the Utah fans were uneasy watching their band afterward

[@FloofyMinari]

Perfect performance once again by The Best Damn Band In The LAND!!!

[@Fieldon]

Ohio State, best damn band in the land. Always, always a pleasure to watch them!

[@heathcox4944]

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!! Gotta Love It, Both Utah and Buckeyes fans ERUPTED!! Can feel it just watching the video! Best Damn Band IN THE LAND!

[@maplebeam5279]

Respect the vets good words OH

[@kevinwilkin1427]

I wish the networks would show bands like this at halftime instead of the studio analysts and highlights of other games. They used to when I was watching as a kid! The bands are part of the tradition of college football which separates it from other sports.

[@mikekeiser6103]

Agreed. I'd much rather see TBDBITL, than some talking head like Kirk Herbstreit ( who never won a bowl game or beat Michigan) talk about how to win a bowl game or beat Michigan.

[@aninterestingpenguin9374]

Networks do show the bands at halftime for the Rose Bowl, actually!

[@merccadoosis8847]

@@aninterestingpenguin9374 I agree with the OP that every game of the week presentation have the band perform instead of the seemingly endless analytical comments made by announcers. The Historically Black Colleges do during their broadcasts and all should the same as these shows are very spirited and add much to the atmosphere.

[@carrieannmcleod5219]

Never get tired of watching the cursive "Ohio" but this is fantastic, never seen double "Ohio!" Not just talented musicians to be able to play so well but to do all the maneuvers. Great job!! And thanks.

[@zilla2760]

I play in my Highschool band and this is my dream college. I’m a freshman and it was my school’s first marching season and it was the best semester of my life. I wanna do marching band all throughout college, this school preferably.

[@louisespadafora9790]

Great job!! This band does fantastic shows week after week! Amazing!!

[@carseye1219]

Love being able to hear the band sing "Buckeye Battle Cry" after Script! They always cut away from that (damn commercials) during TV games. Goosebumps.

[@yourroyalhighness7662]

And an incredible game!

[@BlueDevils_42]

Amazing job today. I can’t wait to see you guys tomorrow at Disneyland

[@billwilliams5889]

Utterly jaw-dropping. Being in that band instantly makes you muy cool !

[@talegunner115]

TRDBITL Yea Ohio State! That made my day.😀 I spent 10 years in the Navy and that made me proud to be an American.

[@francesfehrman741]

Go Ohio State, Brutus buckeyes,

[@christopherjohnson8743]

Haha! The drum major around the 5:20 mark smacks his bandmate on the bottom when he runs past. Love TBDBITL!

[@chrisrobertson3189]

Simply the best!

[@toddb2537]

Makes you proud to be a Buckeye! Definitely The Best Damn Band in the Land!

[@Ltenney1]

Wil you post the halftime? Thanks for making us all so proud!!!

[@StevenJRoosa]

Script Ohio, always stirring! Thank you BDBINTL.🌹

[@gipstetz6720]

The Best Damn Band In The Land!! Period! Go Bucks. O H

[@Awesomeness-hb5zl]

I O

[@Zug75]

the bands better than the team

[@armanmonding5604]

Wow amazing ,,,,,, good work and good job very nice.

[@yourroyalhighness7662]

TBDBITL by far!

[@nickma71]

What an honor for those 2 that got to dot the i. This is the only thing bigger than doing it in the Game.

[@bobcarter4343]

Now THIS is what college football is all about! And while this great band was thrilling the crowd, ESPN was showing car commercials and having their 3 talking heads speculating about the game and those to follow during the day (promotions). This bands should be part of every game. They set the stage for the tribalism and regional pride to follow. Even the trophy ceremony was not shown on live TV but rather on line. Great job OSU Band. Wish I would have been there to hear it in person. Nothing like the Grand daddy... Wonderful game to. Just WOW! Brent Musburger used to start the show with "Your looking live at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena"... What a stage indeed. See it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppTcmKCLi5KjhLM Chills!

[@susanlain6951]

Damn a double script Ohio? TBDBITL some days is not even enough ❤

[@auntt7856]

Hang on Sloopy!

[@kevinlassberg]

Imagine being a Utah fan and having the audacity to try and interupt the OSU band

[@flyflorida2001]

The difference between TBDBITL and Utah’s halftime performances was palpable. Precision and power one one side, not a hat or foot out of place…on the other side half were on the left foot half on the right, random swaying back and forth, zero precision

[@andrewfurst5711]

To be fair, no band comes remotely close to the OSU band. And I say that as a U of Illinois grad; all the Big 10 bands are pretty good but OSU is always the best by far.

[@williamfell1802]

None Better!!!

[@hl9753]

The best damn band in the land what’s the second song?

[@carycomic1954]

This would've made my viewership of the Rose Bowl a lot more pleasant if it had been done for the halftime show (instead of those boring stats).

[@bobeberhart3084]

Always TBDBITL !

[@freidioactive2906]

I feel bad for the folks who are going to have to wear their hats for the next 9 months.

[@douglascarter4994]

TBDBITL. Nuff said!

[@trombonefreakus]

Impressive! If I would ever be around, I would visit the stadium for the music. Definitely not for the sport.

[@newmnho1934]

BGM???
