If there were no 2001...

[Judson1]

and you had to decide the intro music to bring in the Gamecocks, what would it be?

 

[Gamecockalypse325]

No 2001?
NO 2001!!!????? ARE YOU CRAZY!!!!!
Just kidding, if there were no 2001 I think our next best bet would be the fight song/fireworks combo that currently accompanies TDs.

Alice in Chains "the rooster" ala enter sandman at VT.

 

[IrmoRed]

Reigning Blood by Slayer.

 

[superflyby]

I was going to say there wouldn't be a 2002...I guess that's the wrong answer.....

 

[usaguy40]

superman baby....at .44 seconds in they come running in

 

[67gamecock]

Actually, I'd like to see a change re: 2001 . . . Crank up the volume. When the fans get jacked up for a big SEC game, they often drown out 2001. This wouldn't/couldn't happen at most schools, but it's the norm at Carolina!

Go Cocks!!!

 

[Gamecockalypse325]

Ooh. I just remembered something. The band sometimes plays the song from pirates of theCaribbean during games.
There's my answer nix that last one.

 

[DarkCock]

Sandstorm, of course. Let's just play the damn song from the time the team steps on the field until the game is over. Is it possible to play too much Sandstorm? I think not.

 

[trucheck]

This should work just fine

 

[G-C-Gamecock]

#3: Welcome to the Jungle, GNR
#2: All I Do Is Win, DJ Khaled
#1: Lose Yourself, Eminem

 

[AtlasShrugged]

Remember when we used to play a mix of ACDC during 2001?

 

[gamecockengineer2011]

 

[Cocky4SC]

I know.... 1)Carolina Girls
2) Louie Louie

Seemed to be a great "pumper-up" going into the fourth quater

 

[thecarolinacrazy]

Let The Bodies Hit The Floor

 

[superflyby]

I remember the "Are you ready to rumble...". Heck even the players got into that....

 

[Quisp]

Enter Sandman. Rip off Mariano and Va Tech? Sure, but other teams have ripped off 2001, so I say, so what?

 

[wentzel25]

Wannabe - spice girls

 

[usaguy40]

this is a good one too

 

[SILVERSPUR-rier]

This would be an AWESOME introduction...

dang...couldn't get the link to work...

 

[Judson1]

Intro music of Mr Crowley: Ozzy Osbourne

Intro to Doc Holiday: Volbeat

Another poster above mentioned " let the bodies hit the floor" that'll get u jacked up too!

 

[jonesz21]

Didn't we used to play hells bells

 

[zack#]

and you had to decide the intro music to bring in the Gamecocks, what would it be?

"start me up" the Stones

 

[GunTotnTigr21]

"End of the Road" - Boyz To Men

 

[Cocky4SC]

Hey TaterTot, I mean GunTot-

That is funny... NOT! How 'bout y'all play "The wheels on the bus, go round and round" as they show on the video board the Magic School Bus making its victory lap from the locker room to the other side of the valley...

Clemtech is some kind of stupid.

 

[Quisp]

Clemson would be Dueling Banjos

 

[Gamecockalypse325]

I suspect that the Tillman tech taters would love to run down the crap hill into dung valley to the tune of a few David Allen Coe songs....

 

[uscg1984]

I like the Thunderstruck suggestion. I can imagine 85,000 crazy fans yelling "Thunder!" those three times at the beginning. I also like Welcome to the Jungle, Back in Black, and Enter Sandman.

But the problem with all those songs, compared to 2001, is that they don't reach a good crescendo that marks the point the team would run out. You just kind of pick a point in the song and fade it out.

I like the "Let's Get Ready to Rumble!" suggestion, but that really needs to happen right before 2001. It should fade right into it. Someday, when Carolina and Clemson meet in Columbia as top 5 teams, we need to get Michael Buffer down here on short notice to introduce both teams, just like with a championship fight. Introduce Clemson representing the ACC, give their record, wearing Barney purple and white, blah, blah, blah. Then, representing the SEC, with a record of such and such, wearing such and such, led by Hall of Fame coach Steven Spurrier. . . YOUR. . . SOUTH CAROLINAAAAAAA. . . GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMECOCKS! and it fades right into 2001.

 

[superflyby]

This is the one we did several years ago...the place went crazy....

 

[stevestrat2]

The South's Gonna Do it Again- CDB.....just kidding!.......is Back in Black AC/DC too dated?

 

[stevestrat2]

Confession time- pretty much every home game I get choked up during 2001. Yep- something happens to my eyes as Hank Hill would say and a slight bit of moisture rolls down my face. Especially during the old video they would show, Big George, Sterling, vids of our beautiful campus, and State. So many memories of my times at Carolina., etc....just overwhelms me and I get (dare I say) emotional. Then I wipe it off, and man up.

 

[Anna Mule]

Something powerful and rousing by The Irish Rovers.

 

[msc1992]

I'd like to hear the Bells as an intro from Hell's Bells, then the opening chords of 2001.

 

[bowiestar2003]

They need to play a section from "Here Comes the Rooster" by Alice in Chains. like when the announcer says, IT's 3RD DOWN!!! play "Yeah...here comes the rooster."

 

[Melbourne 'Cock]

Walk by Pantera!

 

[Cock-Vader]

Going to go a little out of the box but this works well IMO -

 

[jonesz21]

I don't care what they play as long as it ain't the tater woooo who who who

 

[pepsicock]

 

[blacklist71]

Enter Sandman. Rip off Mariano and Va Tech? Sure, but other teams have ripped off 2001, so I say, so what?

Ohhhh, just like Tommy Suggs ripped off Elvis. Got it.

 

[dcdayday]

If any of these songs that you guys have listed are played as a replacement to 2001 we will have already lost our competitive advantage before we take the field. SMH!
