First rate trolling job by Xavier Band of Ohio State at the bball game last night
How can you not appreciate a good old-fashioned troll job like this? The Xavier band played the Michigan Fight Song during the basketball game against Ohio State last night while showing Ohio State fans on the Jumbotron. Here's a link. I'd appreciate if someone more tech savvy than I post a clickable link or embed. Yeah, I need to take some time to learn how to do this but in the meantime.....

Funny

Too bad Xavier doesn't have a nationally recognized fight song. We could return the favor when up big in the 2nd half of The Game.

I think you mean THE Xavier. They won the "the" in their victory.

I wasn’t expecting an embed tweet of Chris Renkel in this thread. I went to Ball State with him and have hung out with several times. Unfortunately, huge buckeye fan but overall is one of the better people you can talk sports with.

I love Xavier basketball now. Unless they play Michigan. Then i dont like them for 40 min

I thought that I heard the band also played "Mr. Brightside" and the fans sang it.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Go non-OSU ohio schools
November 19th, 2021 at 2:23 PM ^
Hey Xavier
Wonder how many Buckeye fans made the connection.
November 19th, 2021 at 2:30 PM ^
Xavier plays hail to the victors with the game on the line and pulls out the victory. Please let this be us come 3:30 next Saturday. It is going to happen at some point. Why can't it be this year? Go Blue!

The best part of that clip is at the end when it dawns on that one guy that it is not quite the fight song he is used to hearing, and he begins to point out the logo on his jacket as if to say, "Hey, umm....I believe you have obtained the wrong sheet music..."
November 19th, 2021 at 8:16 PM ^
I prefer to think he was covering the logo in shame...
November 19th, 2021 at 2:48 PM ^
So I guess this makes Xavier worthy of praise.
November 19th, 2021 at 5:43 PM ^
I see what you did there.
November 19th, 2021 at 10:41 PM ^
You deserve all the upvotes sir.

i always liked Xavier growing up - just seemed like a fun tough team... then i found out they were in ohio... and just when i thought they couldnt get any worse...
they go and TOTALLY REDEEM THEMSELVES!
November 19th, 2021 at 10:43 PM ^
Wow, I thought big Xavier team we see in basketball was from Xavier University down in New Orleans.
Shows what I know.

Wendyk5, to post a link, look at the top of the Comments box.
There a B (for bold), an I (for italics), and then a squashed oval, apparently to indicate a LINK in a chain.
Click that oval / link, then paste the URL / web address.

Even better is the ombed tag. Click the Source button down at the end. Then < oembed > (remove the spaces) then put your url in here < /oembed > (again removing those spaces) and poof, you've embedded the tweet!

Now that is a classic act. I am now a Xavier hoops fan
November 19th, 2021 at 3:15 PM ^
I was a Xavier fan the 22 years I lived in Cincinnati (2nd to UM of course), so glad to hear they trolled OSU and not only that but won the game!
November 19th, 2021 at 3:17 PM ^
somebody posted in last night's thread that they were at the game and also loved hearing 'the victors' while there. is an A+ troll job. tip of the hat to the Xavier band.

UC vs Xavier rivalry was fun until the world got sensitive
November 19th, 2021 at 7:56 PM ^
That is just awesome!
November 19th, 2021 at 8:22 PM ^
This is one of the better troll jobs I've seen in the last several years! I'm now a Xavier hoops fan whenever they're not playing Michigan... Great job!!

Whenever ND goes on the road they should play Freakbass/"We Are ND" on the Jumbotron.
