LSU's "3 notes" (or whatever it's called). The one played as LSU is about to take the field and at the end of the 3rd quarter of each game. That one gives me the chills

That's our pregame salute, or "Hold That Tiger"

IMO the best are:

1. LSU Chinese Bandits (nothing else like it)
2. UF's "Gatorbait"
3. Auburn's fight song

I think the SEC is pretty weak when it comes to bands. I think that's mostly because of all the piped in music.

Even though they'll likely get beat down in a couple of conference games next year, I think the A&M band is pretty good for what they do.

The Aggie War Hymn & Nole Men of Kyle are pretty impressive.

....But we'll still "drum" them again.

On a musicianship basis LSU is without peer in the SEC. The band that has surprised me recently has been Auburn's. They used to suck, but the quality of their musicianship has improved as well as the diversity of the songs they play. But none of that has to do with the theme songs that all SEC bands can play with adequate skill.

Rocky Top is probably the most recognizeable song from the SEC, but evryone gets sick of hearing it except the most diehard Tennessee fans.

The one band that will never be as impactful as its predecessors is Ole Miss. The songs it no longer plays were those that were the most inspirational to the fans.

I don't think there's a better, more fun, more stirring pregame band entrance in the SEC than the Auburn University Marching Band's (LINK).

I've always liked that UGA defensive cheer where the flutes play like 50 notes before the rest of the band joins in.
