CBJ Wants First Down Chant

I'm thinking that Butch wants is something like what Auburn or LSU have. It's a short, loud chant that is actually lead by the band. I must admit, when AU whipped us a few years ago in Neyland I was pretty sick of it at the end of the game, but I think that's one of the points of a chant, to annoy the other team.

While I like the "First and tenNESSEEEEEEEEEEE" idea I think the "GO BIG ORANGE" chant would be louder and more effective. But, working the band into the concept would be essential.

The band could get in on the 1st and 10 essee. Or a snippet from Rocky Top could come over loud speakers. As they announce the "1st and" the crowd yells "TENNESSEE!"As the band plays the Tennessee outta Rocky Top

Then on first and goal we chant carry the fight.

If the band is used then we would need to use the old Down The Field fanfare the band used for their entrance back in the 60's and 70's. And add "Go Vols" on the end.
 
I like First and Tennessee.

Also like First and Pancake

First and Score

First and Burst

How about instead of a chant, the PA plays "Baby, baby, baby ooohhh" from the Bieber
 
I have a good one. On first down Pearl plays Lil Jon and we say
"FIRST DOWN FOR WHAT!"
Then on second down Pearl plays Lil Jon and we say
"SECOND DOWN FOR WHAT!"
Then on third down Pearl plays Lil Jon and we say
"THIRD DOWN FOR WHAT!
Then on fourth down Pearl plays Lil Jon and we say
"FOURTH DOWN FOR WHAT!"
This could really catch on.
 
A simple "Go Vols" or announcer says First down and the crowd chants "Big Orange" or "Rocky Top". Keep it simple.
