Replacement for 3rd down for what

[UTwild82]

Anything. Anything at all. Just replace it.

(Disclaimer: while I hate it, if the players and recruits like it, keep it. While I can't even put into words how God awful I think it is at this point, if they like it, that means a lot more than my pure unadulterated hatred of it.)

How about involving the band? College is headed towards the soulless atmosphere of NFL games, and marginalizing the band is part of that. College is about tradition. There can't be any tradition if we change rap songs every two years.

Now now. We need to make sure that any songs we play don't make for a "hostile sexual environment"
How about after 3rd down stops everyone hugs the person next to them.

Oh yeah what a great idea! Then we'll get a balloon for a ball and have everyone be nice to each other the whole game and whoever is the nicest wins! We'll call it sarcastaball!

A long time ago, before most of your parents were zygotes in mamma's womb, The Pride of the Southland would play just the right excerpts at just the right moments - like an excerpt from Gustov Holst's Mars when the Vols defense had made a good play, forced a third down & long, fourth down punt... It was far more impressive than the innumerable renditions of Star Wars Imperial March. When one has among the most powerful bands in the world, they should be providing the musical interplay with the action on the field. Leave the piped in recorded nonsense to the lesser schools.

Change the lyrics to "staring down the barrel of a 4th and 5. Swimming through the ashes of another drive."

Glad they are going to play Kashmir. Cool song from Zeplin.

The cool thing about 3rd down for what was the student section flailing their arms around in unison. Whatever the replacement is, we need THAT.

You'll still see like 6 players doing it occasionally.

That was a weird thing. Not sure what CBJ was going for there.

Still better than the first down thing they tried the same year.

Clap, clap, clap.:thud:

How about one side yells "Sh**!" And the other side yells "Poop!" Then "Sh**!" "Poop!" "Sh**!" "Poop!" and finally everybody together yells "SHOOP!"

This got me.

I nominate for post of the year.

Agreed.

The worst part was when Butch was trying to explain it the section I was in just wanted to start a slow clap.

How 'bout Rocky Top

Rocky Top should be played <I>after</I> we do something good, not before it. Waters it down if we play rocky top on third down.

How about we just get loud?

Mega props to the guy on Reddit wanting Bobby Roode's entrance music.

That would be so awesome.
