Which schools don't play their fight song after a touchdown?
Was just watching the Holiday Bowl and noticed how Wazzu's band played the generic "Eat Em Up" cheer after scoring their late touchdown. I think I remember Wisconsin doing something like that as well, although I'm not a fan of the practice myself. Anyone else know of any other cases?

Tennessee does and it doesn't ... the official fight song is some generic 1920's type fight song, but Rocky Top is the unofficial fight song. I had to look up the official fight song on Google ... I don't recall ever hearing it in Knoxville.

I wonder how many schools have multiple "fight songs."? UC has "Cheer Cincinnati" which gets played after TD's, but we also have "Down the Drive" which gets played in the games as well...

Notre Dame's band plays the Damsha Bua (Victory Clog) after the Irish score a touchdown.

It then plays the Notre Dame Victory March ("fight song") after the extra point.

RE: Which schools don't play their fight song after a touchdown?
I was wondering about that as I was sitting in the QuickLane bowl, listening to the Lakeland High School band play one of the 3 or 4 songs they had for Boston College (whose band they were sitting in for). The only time they played the BC fight song was before the game, and some BC fans booed them. Maryland brought their band, but didn't play much either.

All the Michigan schools I've been to a home game of play either the fight song, or an abbreviated version of it after the extra point, some of them play that or another school specific song upon the touchdown. I've been to many other college games, and there is almost always some school specific song after a touchdown or other scoring play.

A&M does not play the War Hymn after TDs and instead plays another FTAB song "Hot Time" which is based on the old rag time song "There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight"

Hot Time

Rutgers does something similar. They play "Colonel Rutgers" after the TD and "The Bells Must Ring" (Fight Song) after the XP.
