I remember reading a sports illustrated magazine and it had the hog call behind roll tide roll as one of the best college football traditions.

I can't believe the TV networks allow that jackass whistler to dominate a broadcast.

And, yes, the cowbells are horrific.

The Florida game operations office has now twice told LSU's Tiger Band when they could play something during that break only to start playing "Won't Back Down" at the same time to make it look like LSU's band was disrespecting Tom Petty. (I heard this directly from people in the LSU band department.)

Just saying.


I could see there being miscommunication the 1st time given it had never been done before, but after that it's been pretty well established that UF plays both We Are the Boys and Won't Back Down after the end of the 3rd. I don't particularly like that, but it is what it is.

Mine are:
1. Vandy Whistler
2. Moo State cowbells
3. Everything A&M does


1. CBS afternoon game/ Gary Danielson
2. Moo State Cowbells
3. A&M people trying to "explain" "They're yell leaders..." when you say they have male cheerleaders. (Hint: they're male cheerleaders...with no female cheerleaders.)

I get a good laugh out of people complaining about Midnight Yell. The only way it could really annoy you is if you attended the yell practice. Why would you want to attend what is essentially a pep rally for the other team?


I mean, who doesn't wanna go to the visitors pep rally at midnight? There's nothing better else to do.

Tom Petty HATED UF. Once he passed, they acted like they were super tight.

Naw.

The cowbells don’t bother me on broadcasts, but that damn whistling is like Chinese water torture. I mute our games with them and don’t watch any other of their games at all. I treat Dick vitale the same way, too irritating to listen to.

Who TF says you can tell LSU’s band when to play? LSU’s band had a tradition to play “Pregame (Hold That Tiger)” at the end of every 3Q. The University of Florida doesn’t get to stop us from doing that.

Opposing teams bands in Tiger Stadium play their songs at the end of the 3Q all the time. We can’t stop them from playing, nor do we try.

LSU fans (and formerly Gator) fans chanting “Tiger/Gator” bait at opposing fans

They do realize that eating bait is setting them up for a trap right?

Watering down the gene pool with expansion for the sake of expansion has unfortunately become an SEC tradition.
