Not SEC, but SEC Rival related and hated by Kentucky. I present, the kansas jayhawks, the greatest little brother of them all!
Talk about the Sooners, the Cowboys and the Buffs,
Talk about the Tiger and his tail,
Talk about the Wildcat, and those Cornhuskin' boys,
But I'm the bird to make 'em weep and wail.
Chorus:
'Cause I'm a Jay, Jay, Jay, Jay Jayhawk
Up at Lawrence on the Kaw
'Cause I'm a Jay, Jay, Jay, Jay Jayhawk
With a sis-boom, hip hoorah.
Got a bill that's big enough to twist the Tiger's tail,
Husk some corn and listen to the Cornhusker's wail,
'Cause I'm a Jay, Jay, Jay, Jay Jayhawk,
Riding on a Kansas gale.

texas also plays their fight song about 100 times a game, we only play the war hymn 4 times or so max. They they actually spend more of their time singing about us than we do about them.

The difference between the Aggie War Hymn and other fight songs is that every Aggie in the stadium stands and sings every word of the song.

Teams usually play their fight song after scores...

Favorite- LSU. I love all of their band music, really. Especially the pregame song- the most intimidating pregame in CFB.
Least favorite- Vanderbilt.
I'm not sure what Missouri's sounds like

Posted by I Ham That I Ham State's is catchy but get's a little old imo. I like the "Hail State" line though. Vandy's is very bland. Gotta be the least distinctive
It's actually:
"Hail Dear Ole' State"
"Hail dear 'ole State,
Fight for that victory today;
Hit that line and 'tote that ball;
Cross the goal before you fall,
And then we'll yell, yell, yell, yell!
For dear 'ole State we'll yell like H-E-L-L!
Fight for Mis-sis-sip-pi State,
Win that game today."
Then the fans scream
"Go State!" at the end

This is what I hear UGA fans sing as their fight song every game we play them (to the music of The Battle Hymn Of The Republic):
Glory, glory to old Georgia!
Glory, glory to old Georgia!
Glory, glory to old Georgia!
And To Hell with USC!
Glory, glory to old Georgia!
Glory, glory to old Georgia!
Glory, glory to old Georgia!
And To Hell with USC!
Yeah, I don't think they have any 2nd verse to it...

I love Rocky Top too. I think it's a pretty cool song.

Ok i must be thinking of just a cheer. It's like Hail...State...Hail State. Either way it's cool to say "hail" 
Kind of reminds me of Washington's fight song "Bow Down to Washington"

It's OK to hear 2 or 3 times, especially in big band form. But that shite gets old after the 20th time. And that's if they are losing
Another team that wears a fight song out is Auburn. I swear I hear Glory Glory Hallalujah every time they make a first down.

Yeah. They do that to the first 4 notes of the fight song in about four different octaves 
And it's Go! State!
Go State!
Then they conclude it with fight song in its entirety

Growing up in Memphis, it was required learning in music class. I don't think I could hate it.

Never been a fan of fight songs that bash your rival. It makes it look like that's all you're thinking about. Although State fans do say Go To Hell Ole Miss instead of Win That Game Today. Still not official lyrics.

I banged an Aggie, and went to a few games in the student section. I heard all the stuff at some point.
Must've been some great pussy.
