Most Annoying College Football Bands

Feel free to add your own.
I picked a few from this list that I agreed with and added one of my own.
1) Florida State - "War Chant"
Doesn't matter the score or the situation. Seminoles could be about to punt on 4th and 55 down by 70 points and the band is still cranking out the War Chant. I haven't been to a LSU/FSU game in decades but I still remember how god awful annoying that chant is from the 1981 and 1991 games. Sadly I missed the 1982 game where we rained oranges down on them.
2) USCw Trojans - "Tribute to Troy"
Like FSU they play it way too damn much and in each and every situation.
3) Tennessee - "Rocky Top"
So I'm told. We don't play them often enough to really hate it but I can understand why it drives people insane.
4) Florida - "Go Gators"
It was a lot more annoying when Spurrier was the coach for obvious reasons. Between this and the War Chant, I needed a lot of liquor to survive watching the '97 Sugar Bowl between UF and FSU.
5) Mississippi State - "Go State" or WTF they call it
This would be #1 for me if State were on the same level as the four programs above. Nothing is more annoying than hearing that damn kazoo band over and over again with "Goah Stayut! Goah Stayut!" interspersed with cowbells.
Goah Stayut! Goah Stayut!
Bands that many of you find annoying
Oklahoma - Boomer Sooner
I actually like this song but clearly it drives many of you insane so I'll add it. I can see where it would get old in a hurry. I haven't experienced it live or else I might concur.
I guess LSU's band probably annoys some of you. But at least our band recognizes that you should have different songs for different situations. We have a first down cheer. Chinese Bandits for when our defense stops the other team. A song for the PAT. A song for Pregame. Not the same War Chant ad nauseum.
Those five schools are the ones that stick out for me.
What say you? What band annoys the shite out of you?

LSU is definitely the most annoying.

This will be a unanimous Tennessee, I just feel bad you put so much effort in the OP

Tennessee is at the top of that list for all-time. I swear to Christ that band doesn't know any other song. A close 2nd is Oklahoma. They played Boomer Sooner after every other play in 2003.

Boomer frickin' Sooner. 5,000 times per game.

Obviously no one here has seen the circle drill.

You'd love it a lot less if Auburn and FSU still played.
It's fine the first few times. But they play it so damn much that even the first few drumbeats are like nails on a chalkboard come the fourth quarter. There's no rhyme or reason to it at all.
Makes me want to scalp them.

OKLAHOMA without a doubt. HATE their band.

Easily this. A great song that gets played 1000x before halftime and will quickly get on your nerves.

Well being that Auburn is in Georgia we are all huge Braves fans, which if you didn't know do the chant as well.

Most of those are great tunes, just terribly overplayed.

Boomer Sooner is brutal.
BTW, up until a few years ago I didn't realize that was the entire lyrics to their song. Just say "Boomer Sooner" over and over and over again at different speeds.
Rocky Top is wearing but at least it is kind of a cool song. The FSU War Chant is lame and annoying.

I was hoping we'd get some Big XII perspectives.
The list I linked was written by a Colorado fan so it was Big XII heavy (well, Big XII at that time). Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas were all listed.
So do you find Oklahoma's "Boomer Sooner" more annoying than Texas's band?
