We've certainly been hearing the "Tiger Rag" a lot in recent years. Ever since Dabo Swinney took over as the Tigers' head coach, Clemson has been one of the best teams in college football. After guys like Deshaun Watson and Trevor Lawrencethrew tons of touchdowns en route to winning multiple college football titles, we've heard "Hold that Tiger!" m...

The Yellow Jackets' "Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech" definitely has maybe the most unique name of any of these tunes. While Georgia Tech's college football team has seen better days, Geoff Collins is doing his best to get them turned around. Besides, down in Atlanta, or on road trips around the ACC, you can also hear "Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia ...
There is a lot of history in many of these fight songs, and that includes this one coming to us from Madison, Wisconsin. The Badgers have been serenaded with "On Wisconsin" since all the way back in 1909. That's well over a century of Wisconsin Badgers football teams taking the field to this fight song. Whether it was Ron Dayne or Russell Wilson, B...

If you aren't a fan of the team from South Bend, Indiana, you may roll your eyes at some of the trappings of the University of Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish definitely like to tout their history — from "Touchdown Jesus" to their indelible fight song. If you watch college sports at all, you have heard the Notre Dame Victory March. The song is simpl...
"Fight On" is more than just a college football fight song for the University of Southern California. It's basically the rallying cry of USC fans. It's the motto for the Trojans. "Fight On!" is surely in the email signature of many an alumnus of USC currently. When we think of "Fight On," we think of the guy dressed as a Trojan at the Los Angeles M...
Admit it. The second you see the words "Boomer Sooner" the Oklahoma fight song starts playing in your head. The Oklahoma Sooners have been at the forefront of college football for decades, and we have not minded it because that means getting to hear "Boomer Sooner" a whole bunch. It's one of those songs that feels like college football. There is a ...
If you tune into the Tennessee Volunteers, you are going to hear "Rocky Top" a few times. It's ubiquitous at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. Interestingly, this is not some century-old song, unlike a lot of offerings on this list. "Rocky Top" was written by the husband-and-wife team of Felice and Boudleaux Bryant in 1967. They were just t...
There was no other choice for us but "The Victors," or as you may think of it "Hail to the Victors." The Michigan Wolverines have the best college football fight song. It's one of the fight songs with lyrics that we know pretty well, and the lyrics are perfect for a fight song as well. Who doesn't want a little braggadocio from their school's fight...

- Texas A&M, “Aggie War Hymn” If this war hymn seems to have a particularly patriotic flare, it’s with good reason: The song was written by an Aggie fighting in World War I—he sent the lyrics “Goodbye to Texas University” back home in a letter while he was in trenches in France.
- University of Southern California, “Fight On” A fight song so good that high schools across the nation use it (with altered lyrics), you’ve likely heard this one if you’ve ever found yourself at a parade with a few marching bands.
- University of Tennessee, “Rocky Top” Nashville might be a couple hours drive from the University of Tennessee, but the love of country music is plenty strong in Knoxville where they’ve adopted the late ’60s hit “Rocky Top” as their unofficial fight song.
