we sing the alma mater at half time? I think a number of other schools do this. I think it would be a great way to get the students involved and ready for the second half.

Honestly, I don't think I even knew those words. But, that's the problem.... nobody ever hears the song or sees the words so how can they learn it. I'm sure the first couple of times we try to sing it it'll be quite bad. But, after a seasons worth of home games I think we'll have it down pretty good.

Sorry

What about every other game?

Just put the words on the screen, its funny singing only the last line, but kinda lame at the same time.

Hail to thee our Alma Mater

May thy name be told

Where above thy gleaming splendor

Waves the Green and Gold

Thou our guide in quest for knowledge

Where we all our free

University of South Florida

Alma Mater, Hail to the!!

Typed without looking them up because I have been singing them at every football game and basketball game I've attended since 1990.

Of course, back then they actually put the words on the scoreboards/screens.

I think there should definitely be a time where we all sing the alma mater. But I'd love to see us all sing the fight song too, because no one knows that either.

Ok... after reading the alma mater I think the fight song would be better. But, I think this is a good idea for next year.

Here is a link to an MP3 of the alma mater...

http://www.usfalumni.net/audio/AlmaMater.mp3

And the alma mater is sung before the national anthem before the game... and the band plays it at the end of the game.


The fight song has words, too... but virtually NO BODY sings it.

USF Bulls are we,

We hold our standard upright and free.

For Green and Gold we stand united.

Our beacon lighted and noble to see.

USF Bulls are we,

For USF we'll always be.

With all our might we fight the battle

Here and now, and we will win the

Victory...

(shout) S-O-U-T-H F-L-O-R-I-D-A

South Florida, South Florida

Go Bulls Go!

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
