• Help Shape NCAA Football: Crowd Chants

    The NCAA Football team is reaching out to the community once again and wants your help in gathering team reference details for possible inclusion in future editions of the game. After asking for info on band and cannon locations in the past (all properly placed in NCAA Football 13), they now want your help in learning all of the crowd chants for every FBS program. This list will be utilized as a checklist for the team as they travel on-campus to each program in the future to record crowd audio as they build upon the crowd chants and improved crowd audio added in NCAA Football 13.

    Share your team - or any team you know - info in this thread. Links to media of the chant (YouTube video, MP3, etc.) or articles/references for each chant are welcome. Post the chant and - as important - when it typically is heard during each game.

    Continue on to see an example of the desired information (school, chant, when it occurs) and to share your school's chant information.

    Here is an example of the information the team is looking for:

    SCHOOL CHANT WHEN IT HAPPENS
    Michigan
    "Go Blue!" (with cowbell) Stoppages in play
    Nebraska
    "Husker ... Power" Before team entrance
    Randomly throughout game
    "Go Big Red" Randomly throughout game
    Notre Dame "Let's go Irish" Any lull
    "Oooooooooo Irish!" All kickoffs
    "We are N-D" (Four corners) Start of 4th quarter
    "Go Irish (Men), Go Irish (Women); Beat [Opposing Mascot] (Men), Beat [Opposing Mascot] (Women)" Stoppages in play
    "Here come the Irish" ... clap clap clapclapclap Team walking down the tunnel at the start of each half; offense driving towards the student section

    Continue on to see the full list of gathered crowd chants and to share your school's.

    After sharing info on your team's chants, feel free to review your team's info on band & cannon locations and provide an update, if necessary. (Admin Note: All off-topic posts will be deleted.)

      i remember the wazzu/hawaii game 2 years ago at century link field in seattle. every time the cougs got a first down, the pa announcer would say, "and thats ANOTHER Cougars First Down!" all of the wsu fans would say "first down" at the same time the pa announcer did. not sure if it applies here though.

      Like the "Bulllllll Shiiiitttt" chant above, that could pretty much apply to every stadium in the nation. Maybe not every, but the majority at least.

      Yep, I remember them doing that at Ohio State when I was there for the Navy-Ohio State game a couple years back.

      Every college stadium I've attended a game in has done it. And more than a few high schools.

      Yeah, we were even doing it when I was in college at a D3 place. Both the people in stands and us students all standing around and sitting on couches at the back of the end zone.

      WVU does this after every first down:




      Not that it matters or anything...

      Also, the Let's Go Mountaineers cheer is at the beginning of the game and the 2nd half.

      Clemson : As you go around the stadium starting at the student section, the student section will chant 'C', then the nextion will chant 'L' ,then the next section chants 'E', the next 'M', the next 'S', the next 'O', the next 'N'. This done like a wave going around the stadium. Also, the South stands will chant 'Orange', then the North stands will chant 'White'. Both of these chants will occur during extended stoppages in play.

      We've got a great start so far, but we'd appreciate if our members/lurkers who are on Twitter would give us a RT to help spread the word even further.

      For Illinois, one half of the stadium chants "I-L-L," then the other half chants "I-N-I," and they repeat this a few times. It's done randomly throughout the game. This was actually included in the last-gen version of the game (as were so many other things).

      We Are...Marshall happens before the team entrance and during lulls in play.

      Other TCU Chants:

      PA: "and its...", PA and crowd "third down!" (on defensive third downs, students hold up the third down sign (the one the refs use))

      On punt returns the students chant the punt returners full name e.g. "Cor-y Rog-ers (clap clap clapclapclap)" or "Bran-don Car-ter (clap clap clapclapclap)"

      After all TCU points are scored and when the team takes the field pregame and after half the "Frog Horn" sounds. It is a 80dB BNSF train whistle.

      Rutgers 1st Down Chant



      Also, bring back the cannon firing after RU score. It used to be in the game, but then they got rid of it.

      Oklahoma: "Boomer...Sooner," as noted during pre-game, but sometimes during timeouts.

      @ kickoff, they chant "OOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo ," until ball is kicked, then "Uuuuuuuu!"

      after scores, the "Rufneks" fire off their rifles, which sound like cannons, and the Sooner Schooner rides out to midfield and back.

      Oklahoma State: Orange...Power," as noted during pre-game, but also during some timeouts.

      @ kickoff (I haven't been to a game in several years now, so don't know if they still do it), fans take out their car keys and jingle them until the kick.

      after scores, "Pistol Pete" fires off a pistol, which is louder than a normal one, and "Bullet" the horse rides out to midfield and back with his rider hoisting an OSU flag.

      too bad I'm late here but ASU has several chants including A-S-U that increasingly gets faster for every big play we make, also the "hells bell" rings every third down for the opposing team THREE times while we give the pitchfork and if I am correct we do A on the left S on the right then U in unison during the game but I think that was just for the Oregon game I went to...

      At ending of the victory song after scores, the fans usually sing the last line of the song and pump their fists as it goes "M-A-R-Y-L-A-N-D Maryland will win!"
