I just heard Alabama's fight song for the first time yesterday. I thought the following lines were funny:
"Go teach the Bulldogs to behave. Send the Yellow Jackets to a watery grave."
AND:
"Fight on, fight on, fight on men. Remember the Rose Bowl we'll win then."
The first line got me thinking - are there any other fight songs that mention other teams? Especially teams that aren't currently in their conference (they haven't played Georgia Tech since 1984!)?
As for the second line, to paraphrase Steve Goodman:
"The law of averages says anything will happen that can.
But the last time Alabama played in the Rose Bowl was the year we dropped the bomb on Japan."
