I also gave it a rah rah. kids these days give it a "Go Hogs" and Awwooooooo.....
Slightly off topic, but question: is that kind of a generational thing? I ask because it's kind of a similar thing with Ags with regards to "whooping." Nowadays, it's pretty much the way it sounds, but my dad and his peers do it with more of a "whoo-ahh" sometimes.
Sounds weird (what doesn't with Aggy?
), but it's noticeable between some generation gaps.

Its generational, the soft a in front of whooo started a few years ago, you go back to Uncle Jerah's time and they call the hogs in a farm scenario type call, which was done at random during the games, which is why he sounds dyslexic when he's saying sooie pig on national tv.

Yes. And woo pig is straight up SWC, so there are commonalities I'm sure.
Kids these days like to go "OWWWWWwoooooooo" and woop and do other weird shite. You know, we like it to be just regular old "normal" yelling of WOOOOOOOOOO..... PIG! Sooie!" Like normal people.
Fight song lyrics are "give a cheer, rah rah, never fear, rah rah" but it seems like with the Millennials it got changed to "Go Hogs" instead of "rah rah". Millennials and non-alum. It annoys me, but I'm normal. I like songs to be sung how they are written. There are also three "A"s in the last line, but the kids these days only sing 2 As.
This below is the proper singing. It's all kinds of fuxxored now.

We moved to Oxford when I was seven. My dad was finishing a double major in pre-med at Ole Miss. He would check me out of school early and take me to Hemingway Stadium ( called that then) to watch the Rebels practice. Then he took me to games.
In Jackson during his med school years, we could walk across the street to Memorial Stadium......lots of games there.
Since he was my hero, I love what he loved. He loved Ole Miss. Now those two years prior to MED School in Jackson WERE the championship days! Everybody was excited. 22 years ago I got the chance to move back to Oxford....I love it!
Once REAL Rebel.....ALWAYS!
