team entrances

[813Jag]

Does your team do anything special? I.E. a video on the scoreboard or some special run out the locker room to the field.

Here's Southern's (It's much better with the new fieldhouse)

Tribe comes out of a smoke-filled tunnel, through gauntlet of band, and cheerleaders to fight song, and mini-cannon blast. Video board does something, but I'm always watching the team. Nothing really special, or creative, and I'd like us to9 do better.

Lights out, videoboard magic, spotlights, inflatable helmet tunnel. It's a really professional style setup.

I've always thought Furman's a bit unique.

The players run out of a big helmet while the band plays a symphonic version of "Rock you Like a Hurricane" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxQJDues5LU), then to the fight song. Furman's football team used to play under the moniker "purple hurricane."

Oh, and I almost forgot. Our team is led onto the field by a guy in full plate armor riding a charger. That is definitely unique.

The fight song is a nice touch, but why are you playing Elons fight song???? ;)

[TheRevSFA]

I need to find video of it, but one lone SFA player comes through the gauntlet of cheerleaders, and drives an axe into a tree stump...and then the players come out through the helmet and such.

We have fireworks and a tunnel walk. I love it all except for the inflatable helmet. It looks pretty bush league. I also liked it better when Yosef rode a Harley instead for a four wheeler.

For all the people that say Delaware stole Michigan's uniforms....NDSU stole Nebraska's team entrance, not nearly as well I may add too.

[The Eagle's Cliff]

True to our roots, Georgia Southern doesn't do anything fancy. The team is gathered in the endzone while a video of our history plays. Erk's speech at a pep rally after one of our NC's :"One More Time for the Greatest Team in America!" ques the team to run through the band gauntlet led by cheerleader flags (new since 2006) and a player carrying the Black Flag (new since 2010) signaling "No Quarter Given, No Quarter Taken".

Tapping a simple GATA sign is part of it.

I've always loved the added touch of visiting teams unloading fancy buses with pretty uniforms, conventional offenses and other flash while the Eagles arrive in Yellow School Buses with plain uni's and beat the crap out of them with a "high school offense".

Since Eagle's Cliff didn't mention it I'll add that the bust of Erk Russell that is pictured at the bottom of EC's post is on the field right where the players walk down from the locker room. That being the case, many of them will do a symbolic head-butt with Erk, since doing that was a signature of his.

It's much much different indoors.

I can't think of a single reason why we would do things like Nebraska. xlolx

Cool way to pay homage to one of the great leaders of modern football...

Band forms a tunnel, 50 Cent's "Get Up" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSg4m1hpEFI plays leading into a video montage "Dare to ..." then the team runs through a inflated helmet with smoke through the band playing the Fight Song following the cheerleaders carrying flags spelling out Delaware (shown on this video, but the helmet wasn't up due to wind) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANsjJVNrW_s

Me neither....I guess "haters gonna hate". Another video below for the Georgia Southern playoff game intro along with a video of the intro itself (better audio).

(Speaking of "copying", check out the crowd :D)

I like the four-wheeler better. The Harley was too much like Wake Forest. Plus, Mountaineers don't drive spiffy Harleys.

Here's our intro video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIdmP4etckk

I tell ya, a well produced intro video can really make an impression. I remember at the National Championship game, several SHSU people were talking on their board how much better our package was than theirs. It really got the ball rolling.

That's actually our first ever intro vid, hopefully the one this year improves.

[McNeese72]

We do have an entrance video that changes from season to season.

But as far as the entrance of the players themselves, first the player, who is chosen to carry "The Wood" comes out of the smoke filled tunnel and shows that they are "bringing the wood" to the crowd. Then the other players emerge from the tunnel and he leads them onto the field between the Band and the Cowgirl Kickers preceded by the Cheerleaders with the flags and sometimes the Mystery Rider on Sundancer II.

NDSU's coach is a former Cornhusker player and coach. He also uses Tom Osborne's philosophy from the bench.

[eiu1999]

EIU is pretty lame in this regard, just the team coming out from the corner of the endzone, running through the band.

Here it is from the press box POV (more fireworks, crowd, etc.)


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLqh6NJlMS0

If you watch the video board just before the team runs out and the fireworks go off you'll see Sean Connery's "Welcome to the rock" line from The Rock, one of the greatest movies of all time . Yosef also shoots off a gun.

In other words, it's the anti-GSU entrance. xnodx

[GlassOnion]

I think the App fireworks need to be upgraded with "smokeless" powder. The current stuff doesnt get along well with low cloudcover on those misty moutain days.

[Uncle Rico's Clan]

Prior to the team coming onto the field we play a tunnel walk video, this is last years and I have a suspicion it will be changed...


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeEuORCr6rI

At the end of the video, the song "Bring 'Em Out" by T.I. begins to play(I have no idea if that is the correct song title or artist) and the team runs through a giant Griz helmet with smoke.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpBnVqAhiKs&feature=related

We have the smoke down pretty good, it usually looks great as the team comes out. I also love watching the opposing team, there are always a few players who think its a good idea to incite the crowd.

Bite your tongue, the Rock was one of Michael Bay's BEST. Sean Connery and Nicholas Cage.

Connery's best line in a movie ever: "Your "best"! Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and **** the prom queen."

The Rock, big thumbs up. Sean Connery, big thumbs up. Nicholas Cage, plugh, 2 thumbs down.

[andy7171]

This video was played on the scoreboard last year...


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BgUQ-Jvnl0

..followed by the team running out of the inflatable tiger head and smoke.

As the season progressed, more current high lights were added. I'll try and find one of those.

[seantaylor]

Monken has been improving our entrance each year. I bet he has something new on tap. And when we get our new building, I imagine the theatrics will be amplified

It seems funny to me that they run out from that end, instead from under the student section, IMO.

Here is the App State game hopefully showing everything you described.

[AmsterBison]

Some people want NDSU to run a live bison onto the field like Colorado.

Not a big fan of that - any bison you can trot out safely is not a really good example of a bison.

Georgia Southern lives by the man who made the program - Erk Russell. It's very simple now that the bust of Erk is in the corner of the endzone. Head butt.....kick butt!!!

[Twentysix]

For all the people that say Delaware stole Michigan's uniforms....NDSU stole Nebraska's team entrance, not nearly as well I may add too.

You think this is similar to NDSU?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=pu3iBW5gWP4

I guess the tunnel run is similar, our headcoach has heavy Nebraska ties, could have something to do with it.

this is south carolina state's video entrance


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USxojOOpRx8&feature=channel&list=UL

[Pard4Life]

Lafayette has a decent introduction: The video board starts off by playing some historic clips (b&w 1930s highlights), with flashes of key historical moments, leading up to the present day with ferocious hits, set to a Gladiator-like theme music of the Coleseium scene... at the end, the Leopards emerge through fog from an inflatable leopard helmet from the football building.

Lehigh has some old geezer mumble something and some moms ring cow bells.

[JMU2K_DukeDawg]

JMU's is at least creative with their board. We have a different cartoon video for each opponent showing the Duke Dog in someway kicking A** vs. the other team's mascot. In this entrance video, it features the Spiders:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQkPWXlPSHU

Otherwise, your standard blow up mascot, team running through the tunnel of the band, smoke, fireworks, etc. Fun stuff!! :)

sar·casm
   [sahr-kaz-uhm]
noun
1.
harsh or bitter derision or irony.
2.
a sharply ironical taunt; sneering or cutting remark: a review full of sarcasms.

[bjtheflamesfan]

Liberty has a video intro (last year's song was "Showstopper" by TobyMac), followed by the first strains of the theme to "2001: A Space Odyssey", followed by a guy in a red jacket running onto the field through a tunnel made by the band, and he then leads the "L-U" chant. As 2001 ends, smoke fills the eagle head tunnel and at the last note, the team bursts out, led by students picked during the previous home game as well as cheerleaders, and the band plays the fight song.
