There are thousands of screaming fans, and the team is about to emerge from the tunnel. As they run on the field, they hear the cacophony of the fans, but more importantly they hear their FIGHT SONG!
The college fight song is above all synonymous of the boundless pride of each particular college team. The fight song commands us to dance, lead cheers, march in step with the band, and get our players pump
ed up. These fight songs send chills down die hard fans backs, and unite an entire stadium with the pride of their team. According to Matthew Jones, "The fight songs really pump me up and get me into the game." These anthems usually mock rivals; they fill the home team with pride, and they fill opponents with outrage.
In singing fight songs, fans feel apart of a large, time honored tradition. Everyone at the game hears the fight song and they are immediatly fileld with school spirit and pride. The players hear the song and become determined to win to keep their schools high sense of pride. Everone loves a good football game, but these fight songs just complete the overall rush and atmosphere of college football.
