Even though I'm an LSU fan, its hard to not like "Rocky Top".

Best unbiased-Tennessee
Biased-LSU

Worst Unbiased- Texas A&M because they seem to try and compensate for their lack of creativity with made up words and a verse about a school that isn't their school.

Hullabaloo, Caneck! Caneck!
Hullabaloo, Caneck! Caneck!

Good-bye to Texas University
So long to the Orange and the White
Good luck to the dear old Texas Aggies
They are the boys that show the real old fight
"The eyes of Texas are upon you..."
That is the song they sing so well
So good-bye to Texas University
We're going to beat you all to--
Chig-gar-roo-gar-rem
Chig-gar-roo-gar-rem

Rough Tough! Real Stuff! Texas A&M!

Da fuq is all that nonsense aggies?

Written by a soldier while on the front lines in France during WW1.

It's not changing and no one cares what you think.

Guess you hate every fight song with some form of onomatopoeia in it?

Is there some sort of Aggie bat symbol when threads like these pop up?

It shouldn't, tradition is what makes College Football great IMO

Obsession.

Only little brother schools have lyrics about their big bros in their fight songs.

So, the fact that it was written by a soldier excuses that it's nonsensical and reeks of little-brother syndrome?

I'm a Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech, and a hell of an engineer— A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, hell of an engineer. Like all the jolly good fellows, I drink my whiskey clear. I'm a Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer. Oh! If I had a daughter, sir, I'd dress her in White and Gold, And put her on the campus to cheer the brave and bold. But if I had a son, sir, I'll tell you what he'd do— He would yell, 'To hell with Georgia!' like his daddy used to do. Oh, I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds, A college bell to put it in and a clapper to stir it round. I'd drink to all the good fellows who come from far and near. I'm a ramblin', gamblin', hell of an engineer!

Lyrics to Texas Fight (University of Texas)

Texas Fight, Texas Fight,
And it's goodbye to A&M.
Texas Fight, Texas Fight,
And we'll put over one more win.
Texas Fight, Texas Fight,
For it's Texas that we love best.
Hail, Hail, The gang's all here,
And it's good-bye to all the rest!
(YELL)
Yea Orange! Yea White!
Yea Longhorns! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Texas Fight! Texas Fight,
Yea Texas Fight!
Texas Fight! Texas Fight,
Yea Texas Fight!

I agree that A&M's is the worst. Dragging, moping, nasty old song.

I'm biased because I learned to dislike it at a tender age.

I actually kinda like it. I guess they should have left out Georgia, but it seems pretty bad arse regardless.

Yea Alabama

Yea, Alabama! Drown 'em Tide!
Every 'Bama man's behind you,
Hit your stride.
Go teach the Bulldogs to behave,
Send the Yellow Jackets to a watery grave.
And if a man starts to weaken,
That's a shame!
For Bama's pluck and grit have
Writ her name in Crimson flame.
Fight on, fight on, fight on men!
Remember the Rose Bowl, we'll win then.
Go, roll to victory,
Hit your stride,
You're Dixie's football pride,
Crimson Tide, Roll Tide, Roll Tide
