"We Are - North Texas!"

[NT80]

Yes, it's a ripoff of the Marshall chant.

I heard Penn State fans use it last week against Nebraska ....thought it would sound good with our double-name too.

Besides, we need a new chant for the football games.

I'm actually not sure who started the chant as I have heard many schools do a variation.

Our cheerleaders actually used it during the 2007 basketball tournament (if you can find the old videos, you can hear them chanting it as time runs down in the championship game).

It doesn't sound right for us IMHO because the syllables are off. Maybe "We are NT" (Which is a play on what Notre Dame does with their "We are ND" chant.)

[Mean Green Scrappy]

When I read this all I could think of was "We are - Fox Sports"

They ran that commercial during all the Rangers games

[SilverEagle]

I've heard "we are (clap clap) ND and the same for Southern Cal (we are, clap clap SC). I've always thought that we could do the same and say "we are (clap clap) NT, and then alternate between NT and Mean Green in the yell/chant.

Dodge used to have the team chant this. Bad mojo.

[UNT90]

I think we need originality. Not a fan of the copied chant.

I heard "we are Farmers, da dada da dada da dada du" from the insurance commercial

Actually, Marshall ripped it off from Penn State. Penn State has been doing the chant since 1947.

Why can't we just get "North-Texas" chant to actually work?

[Varsity]

How about:

Ooom gowa,

green powah,

you'll all be dead,

in about an owah!

[mgfan]

I believe that chant was started by penn state in like 1947. They have been using it for awhile. We need to get our own thing.

I gave you a plus 1, but dead is not a good word to use in a chant. How about beaten or some other word. Dead just sends a bad vibe.
