College fight songs are cool. They are what helps separate college football from the NFL. And let’s face it, college fight songs are better than stadium jock jams every day of the week (especially on Saturdays). Over the years we have seen plenty of college football players lead their school’s marching band in a celebratory rendition of the school fight song, and that is always a specioal moment.
The Denver Broncos went the extra yard and organized an opportunity for members of their football team’s roster to lead the Colorado Symphony Orchestra in symphonic arrangements of their various alma mater’s fight songs, and some of them even managed to stay on the down beat! Wisconsin’s Montee Ball starts off well but starts to fall behind the beat, although he did manage to get back in time at one point. As for Peyton Manning, well, for some reason he held his conductor’s baton the wrong way [insert Super Bowl opening play against Seattle here].Um, Peyton Manning? You’re holding that conductor’s baton the wrong way. pic.twitter.com/28Um1x3Sue
