Your trash country "chart" doesn't count. Read the thread heading.

I feel like getting some downvotes...

So I'm going to mention "Rednecks" by Randy Newman...

Don Henley's Sunset Grill (No. 22 in 1985) has the line about "staring up at the Auburn sky".

Has your school’s campus ever been depicted in a beloved cult classic movie?




Not classics but,

The Reaping with Hillary Swank,

Everybody's All-American with Dennis Quaid, Jessica Lange, John Goodman and Timothy Hutton

Toothless in the outhouse was a big hit in the 60s, inspired by Deacon James time living in Starkville Miss

Very cool that LSU was used as a filming location, but the movie doesn’t depict LSU. It uses LSU as a set to depict a fictional university

Auburn’s actual campus doesn’t appear in Big Fish, but the characters in the movie are at Auburn University

I believe they filmed their Auburn scenes at Huntington College in Montgomery

Queen was prescient in 1977 with "We Are The Champions". While not mentioning UGA by name its obvious who the song was written about...GO DAWGS!

Reefer man by cab Calloway mentions the state of South Carolina, and the movie “the program” with James Caan, all the stadium scenes are at early 1990s Williams Brice Stadium.

There's a song out right now. A country song where she is dating a guy from Tennessee and her family are all UGA fans.

Tennessee Orange. I think that would count for both UGA and TN. It hit #30 in the top 100

quote:
In Georgia, they call it a sin
And I still want the Dawgs to win
But I'm wearing Tennessee orange for him
I'm wearing Tennessee orange for him




The fact that an OSU fan responded to an UGA fan with this is awesome.
