USC fans chanting to Tusk...

[Livia]

USC I'm trying to hear this in my head, but it's not working....

"Standing on the field after the game, yes, it was disappointing. USC fans, of course, were being their classless selves, throwing oranges on the field, the USC rooting section punctuating their band’s Fleetwood Mac theme of “Tusk” by chanting “U-C-L-A sucks!...”

Maybe they chanted it to the drum beat...it'd have to be pretty fast though.

Aaah, who cares....the Longhorns are goin' to the Rose Bowl! Hell, yeah, baby! (Cue for Brian to chime in on this thread for his beloved Sooners in 5...4...3...2...)

Because I'm a huge dork, I whipped out my camera and recorded a sound clip of this at the first rally I ever went to

I have a version off the marching band's cd too (no chanting), if for some reason anybody wants that, lol. They claim Tusk is their most requested song and play it at everything (along with Heartbreaker, and some Ricky Martin song). It's kinda cool. Except when they do it outside your window at 2:00 in the morning pre-finals. Then, it really sucks.

Okay, I"ve got it in my head now - just the final U-C-L-A, like the slowed down 4 beats, right before "Sucks!" instead of "Tusk." Can you hear it now?

I HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE, HATE the Oklahoma @#$%@#$% Sooners...I only laugh at how often they beat the mighty Texas Longhorns, Which seems to be a yearly thing now.

I'm an OSU (That's Oklahoma St. not to be confused with that other OSU) fan...And I have always been a fan of USC, So ya can tell who I want to win on January 4th!!!

Sung to the rhythm of "Tusk": "Duh duh-duh-duh duh-duh-duh duh-duh-duh....OU Sucks!"

Brian "Why are the Oklahoma Sooners' team colors red & white? Easy...Their fans are RED necks & WHITE trailer trash " j.

Thats cool, Tiff you are always at the right place at the right time to capture these things.


I have a new one now for a certain team but I won't say who.

from espn.com "So I see Mack Brown had to gin up a pity vote in the polls, rather than actually win his first big game (defeating Georgia Tech in 1993 does NOT count) during the season, or a conference championship, to go to a BCS bowl. The voters should print up a bunch of bumper stickers that say "PROUD PARENT OF A TERRIFIC KID AT UT-AUSTIN" because this honor is about as meaningful, about as merited, and similarly based on no standard of achievement."

screw them....if theres one team i hate more than michigan its texas. both are forever overrated. but anyway GO BLUE!

You're welcome! Here's the cd version:

Just for fun, here are Everywhere & Dreams by one of our a capella groups. Dreams is based on the Corrs' arrangement, but still kinda cool. They do a neat version of Tusk as well, but I don't have the disc it's on.

There's also a full page photo of Stevie, Mick, & Lindsey on the field in a book about the marching band.
