Sun Bowl 2012 - USC vs GT - Battle of the Bands Part 1

Description

[@dmainfla]

My Dad went to Tech back in '59-61 and I love the Jackets, but USC has got the "flair"! They are just a fun band to watch. It'll be quite the day when Arthur retires, and I think that's this year as I recall. He's been with them I think almost 50 years. He will be missed....

[@cameronbassett1716]

Dr. Bartner retired in 2020 after 50 years with the spirit of Troy (1970-2020)

[@chaddelprete6724]

This “battle” was over before it started...

[@navajovik]

Georgia Tech looks like a high school marching band with ribbons on their hair and USC looks like a University Marching Band with barbies!

[@XJarhead360]

And those USC cheerleaders ARE barbies. Love'em

[@isaiahbangura4421]

I feel like the USC Spirit Squad are supposed to be similar to cheerleaders.

[@laker4life36]

USC Women >> Georgia Tech Girls

[@islandtat3414]

Haha for real!

[@stevencharles9534]

Skirts, skirts and more skirts !

[@Truly1Tom]

I initially was watching videos on KZbin about the Spirit of Troy because I was going through a lot of issues because of the COVID-19 work culture dynamic which made me reexamine what I wanted to do professionally moving forward. The coincidence of my watching a commencement 🎓 video 📹 got me seriously thinking about the curriculum offerings at the USC Marshall School of Business in its graduate 🎓 programs. I was a logistician in the US Air Force which gives me a unique understanding of how 🤔 supply chains operate on a fundamental level. So, the decision to go to school 🏫 at USC Marshall School of Business was a "nobrainer" to me!

[@luisnovelo8047]

Wow! - The world famous USC Song Girls are amazing ! ! !

[@fr8fr6dr69]

... this should have 17 trillion views...

[@BladeStar-uq6xe]

Man, they make a show just walking in! Go, USC!

[@taylorschoolar1393]

As a dancer, this is the first time I’ve ever liked a cheerleaders performance better than dancers. Nothing beats precision

[@flyguy212]

I Wish I could post pics of the USC screw ups and how far off they get from one another

[@artgalgenius]

These are the Song Girls, not the cheerleaders. They are all trained dancers.

[@flyguy212]

@@artgalgenius They look like they got their training at the local strip Club!

[@Lost-In-Blank]

If I was going to university to study band, or dancing, I'd definitely choose USC. USC is definitely a national leader in band and dancing. Band and dancing are a big affiliation for USC alumni. You hire a USC alum and you know what you're getting.

[@Lost-In-Blank]

Seriously, USC is fantastic in band and dancing. But I picked my university based on its reputation in science and the professions, not football or dancing or anything else unrelated.

[@JR-cn6nk]

Wish this was HD but still great!

[@bgould72]

Mmmm...Song Girls...

[@MtDuckford]

What are they chanting at the start?

[@brianwood699]

USC brought enough people for 5 marching bands, jeeeez.

[@XJarhead360]

Hey, that's what you get with parental bribes. Some hot chick isn't going to go to a podunk school when she can show off her bod at USC. No disrespect meant to Georgia Tech, a fine school but come on, the cheerleader routines from GT are pretty tame.

[@RoyalFizzbin]

Captain 1985 To be fair, USC is in LA, and their band is super high-visibility, which would draw some of the best. A lot of these kids - song girls and band members alike - are at USC because they want to be seen.

[@al4539]

GT is no match for USC Trojan Marching Band

[@thetruth-xb4yh]

who is the man on the ladder?

[@RoyalFizzbin]

I mean... anybody who battles USC’s band in anything *except* precision marching is gonna lose. Sound-wise and for just overall fun they are the top.

[@thetruth-xb4yh]

who won?

[@thetruth-xb4yh]

why do they point two fingers to sky?

[@chrisjetson8537]

FIGHT ON! ✌🏽

[@phantommp5]

Having been in bands and Drum & Bugle Corps….GT Band is ok, but USC’s band is far superior! (I don’t like USC football). But you have to give credit to USC Band and “Song girls!” They came prepared and won this!

[@Sambone702]

Georgia tech is a fine band. This is the biggest blowout/ mismatch in any competition ever. Sports, war or whatever.USC girls are just better in everyway and the music is great

[@flyingfox10001]

one in the red with the big cone at 1:00 just on screen at one minute mark, i want to do things to her i can't say on here!

[@howru2055]

Nobody stands a chance against USC marching band unless you’re Ohio state then maybe 🤷‍♂️

[@thetruth-xb4yh]

do tusk

[@Dutchinvegas]

Not even close. USC kills it.

[@BobSmith-dk8nw]

Nope. Apples and Oranges for what we saw - can't comment on the bands. Song Girls vs. Cheer Leaders - completely different - and both were really good at what they did. .

[@flyguy212]

Actual choreography rather that strip club rejects.

[@Dutchinvegas]

Seriously, a band that has some dude dressed like a bee?

[@herodlowery9923]

Monika Reyes It’s a Yellow jacket, more like a wasp than a bee and their sting is WAY worse than a bee.

[@goliathsinatra2912]

🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@islandtat3414]

GT band looks like the Mormon Tabernacle choir 😆 They are way out of their league! Their cheers are boring and the music sucks! 😆 Welcome, Hollywood! Song Girls, sprit squad, and the mighty Spirt of Troy and Dr. Bartner✌️Fighton✌️
