Supposedly, it's to generate more noise. You're not supposed to bend completely over...more like a 30-45 degree angle.

Supposed to help you project your voice more loudly, according to legend. It's also a signal to the rest of the students behind you that a yell is beginning.

FWIW, it is true. According to my scientific research, women do get louder when they bend over.

I don't hate the Aggies. The yell leaders are kind of weird. But it is what it is.

Vepp had the correct answer, but I acknowledge it's another weird thing that sets Aggies apart that can never be fully explained.
