5 Favorite College Football Traditions

I’ll go ahead and get Florida State’s Chief Osceola out of the way and not count him as #1 since I’m heavily biased. I particularly like when Chief Osceola dismounts Renegade against Florida. It’s a special event, double the fun if he hands the spear to an actual member of the Seminole Tribe as he has lately.

#5 Michigan’s Touch The Banner Entrance – Hail! Hail!!!!! Go Blue!!! Wooooo!!!

#4 USC Song Girls – Thank you CSTV for covering them. I’m sure there was a national title game going on or something when this aired, but really, who cares when it’s the USC Song Girls? (Yeah Pete, it’s the “athleticism” of them. Right.)

#3 Clemson’s Hill Entrance - Admit it, it’s exciting. It might even be the most exciting 25 seconds in a Clemson football game. I hope to see it in person one day.

#2 Virginia Tech – Team Entrance via “Enter Sandman” - I’m biased, I love the song. Blacksburg looks electric when the Hokies come out to Metallica.

#1 Texas A&M’s Midnight Yell Practice - 40,000 crazy Aggies practice cheers the night BEFORE the game. That’s awesome!

    #5?!???!!? Surely you jest. Maybe #2 behind the USC song girls. They seem to inspire a swelling of pride that fills those Trojans up.

    WHOOP!

    I don’t think I could’ve made a better list, nice job.

    So I think Clemson should definately be #1. I’m sure you’d agree with me if you were to see it in person. It gives me chills =]

    Someday Erin, although I’d like to attend a midnight yell someday too.

    And as always, Chief Osceola will always be #1 in my heart.
