Hugh Hewitt on his radio talk show loves to talk lovingly about his famous [or infamous] Ohio sports teams. He is a big Ohio State Buckeye fan and loves to play their "we don't give a damn about the whole state of Michigan song" especially on the week they are playing their hated rival-the Michigan Wolverines.
While that is not Ohio State's fight song, that got me to thinking of all of the great college fight songs in the nation. I have made a list of my top 6 college fight songs. I am sad to say my University of Houston Cougars song [while I always love to hear it being played and it is a great song] did not make the list. Two Texas University's songs did make the list. The top song on my list is from a school, while not in Ohio, is Hugh's second favorite team [maybe a tie in Hugh's mind] outside of his Buckeyes.
So, without further ado, Tales top 6 college fight songs are in reverse order:
#6 Texas A & M Aggies, "Aggie War Hymn":
#5 Oklahoma Sooners "Boomer Sooner":
#4 Wisconsin Badgers "On Wisconsin":
#3 University of Texas Longhorns "Texas Fight":
#2 Michigan Wolverines "The Victors":
#1 Notre Dame Fighting Irish "Victory March":

Although I'm an orange blood, my favorite has always been the Michigan fight song--- you left off MY second favorite, and that is Tennessee rocky top!
You're right brother...I knew I would forget one. :-)
