  • Tht drummajor cant march

  • Haa. that dude fell he corny. he prolly got his butt busted they got back on campus

  • that Loose my breath arrangement sucks! dsu has a better version way better

  • LOL that guy fell!

  • thats waat u get when u try to show off lol

  • i had dis on tape. LMAO

  • Sucks for you.  Why would you want to hear this crap again?

  • Is this supposed to be a joke like Stanford's band?

  • I guess no one has taken into consideration that the network did a horrible job of catching their whole sound

  • got im in a high shcool marching band and i can say were better go this sucks

  • This is complete GARBAGE. I heard the 89' edition ; they were much better than this!!!!!!!

  • diz sukked no lie

  • the ending made me lmao

  • that wuz state trooper tryin to show off and fell his dumb ass down hahahah rolmfao!

    But i don't know what the hell was up with the sound this game maybe because this was the Swac championship game and finals was the next week, people was tired by this time

  • Where the hell is everybody? GVSU draws bigger crowds than this. Pathetic.

  • As evidenced by the 25 people in the stands in the background! LOL

  • The drill is great, the head bounces cute, and the results are appalling! Heard high school bands with better sound.

  • Damn, the end is hard to watch.

  • The only reason they was sounding like that is because the camera man was right in front of their faces. When they do that it causes the sound to be a little different.

  • Hey buddy! If you're going to attempt to rattle (360/spm) at least stay on your feet. Check out some Marching 100 clips for pointers.

  • lolz did any watch the end where the guy totally falls

  • Great drill. DREADFUL sound.

  • agreed

  • Wooow...

    Pitiful.

  • if u think southren is pitiful u r so dumb the word is more like powerful!!

  • loool... Powerful from a distance.

    In this clip southern's signature sound is not there. They sound like a high school band.

  • Whatever you feel personally about Southern's band--one this is agreed--when they come into the place the opponent's band know they have to step up. Southern is the best COMPLETE MARCHING band, hands down. They are one of the few bands that show skill on the field-not gyrating and popping or lying on their backs like cock roaches--what is that all about?

  • You can't hide when the camera is right in your phase. Breathing, phrasing, articulation, etc. all while cranking out 90s. They never catch the best players on the field.

  • Once again, somebody should tell those cameramen when the ladies dance the camera should be on them exclusively.

  • Trumpet's Trumpet's what's wrong. Where is the marching and the knee lift.

  • my input is ......SU is the best driller out of the HCBU Schools...but people have their own opinions about SU...people talk like they a horrible high school.....them boys could drill.....they do have good tone and but of course they gone blow.....to ole boy with MSU....boi go head...sayin they walkin ..on a step 2 u gotta maintain distance and tempo...y would u march stupid u throw off the whole thing....

  • It was cold and raining out there, that is not what we are use to in Louisiana. I barely knew I had feet marching on the field. I acn only imagine what horn players were dealing with as far as trying to keep their mouthpieces warm and lips warmed up. BET is the worse, they make everybody sound band just about...

  • Please don't make excuses. Just because it is cold outside doesn't mean there is room for error. This is a world reknown collegiate level band. No excuse.

  • (Tenn. State man) I've seen SU do better...but i still love the Jukebox.

  • BET is known for making a band sound like crap, their camera footage is horrible. They will make the best band even the non-hbcu bands sound like sh@t!! I still prefer a JSU, FAMU, SU, show over MSU, OSU, OR UW anyday. Hbcu shows just have more SOUL!!!

  • Sum one must had a cambra on their head! lol

  • Spartan00000000:I agree with you about the sound of SOUTHERN, but OSU??? They are ALL brass...what type of sound is that...And Im sorry, you can't compare HBCU bands with non-HBCU bands...NOT ALL HBCU bands sound like this ...Personally, I think a lot of non-HBCU band are BORING and CORNY AS HELL!! They march like they have sticks up their asses!!

  • I agree and disagree. Most hbcu bands are not regularly playing in 60,000-110,000 seat stadiums. See how many flutes or piccolos or clarinets you hear in the top row of the upper deck at Spartan or Ohio or Memorial Stadium - NONE. When Michigan is visiting and their band turns to play the other direction, you can barely hear them. Not so with OSU or MSU. So to me they add nothing.

  • And I agree that many non-hbcu are boring. Nearly all hbcu band drills are phenomenal! But with all the head-bobbing and instrument-waving, the sound quality of most is dreadful

  • I have to agree with you about OSU band being corny. I GO to The Ohio State Univ. and go to the football games but I'm from Baton Rouge and I tell you that there is nothing like the SOUND/FEEL of southern marching band.

  • Great drill and absolutely awful sound.  Typical of all historically black college marching bands except FAMU.

  • FAM is not the only band that has great sound while marching! Norfolk State, North Carolina Central, Hampton, and Morris Brown. Not to mention the heavy weight champion of bands The P.R.I.D.E. of Bethune-Cookman The Marching Wildcats

  • What the hell do you mean by that comment 'typical of all historically black college bands'. Not so! Look at FAMU, Tennessee State University, Norfolk State, Bethune Cookman College, even a different clip of SU.

    I can run you a list of the white boys that make this bad clip of SU sound like the New York Philharmonic. So don't say that is typical of HBCUs when there are a hell of alot more white colleges that sound shittier than this clip. Maybe you should broaden you horizons before talking.

  • who says I am white? talking about prejudicial assumptions! you dont think there are blacks in non-historically black college marching bands that dont agree with me? you must be crazy. and i have listened to a lot of the other bands you referred to on here......and they SOUND like shit.

  • Well you must have an identity crisis then...

    Who made you a band authority on what sounds good and doesn't. True enough this is a horrible clip of SU, however, just because HBCUs don't fit into this preconceived "concert band in motion" style that they brainwash you with up in Spartanland doesn't mean that these bands sound like shit. Do some research on HBCU styles and maybe you will be enlightened as to why most of them have and aggressive "blowing" style.

  • Not an authority, but entitled to my own opinion. The DRILL is unmatched...FANTASIC, and the SOUND is HORRIBLE....shrieking, wailing trumpets! Broken up from all the jerky motions.

    You wanna see a real MARCHING band or two? Check out Ohio State....they have got both elements down pat. Likewise to Wisconsin. I am open-minded enough to state that MSU is ok and I love them, but they cant touch OSU or UW.

  • Jerky motions huh...I could have sworn that Michigan State was one of the first marching bands to march with that "jerky motion" or better yet "Horn Swing" and "up on 8". This is sad I know more about the history of your school than you do...please prove me wrong...

  • there is a HUGE difference between our smooth horn "swing" and throwing your head all over the place like a damn bobble-head doll! LOLOLOLOL And you are right, it is sad how little you know.

  • I am sure it is "aggressive blowing"......which sounds like SHIT regardless of whatever "land" you are from.

  • yea you say that because they play with power. look at BCU, they have power yet it is controlled. Go to one of their concerts and it sounds wonderful. their concert band is 10 times better than the bands that you are defending. Great tone quality, intonation just wonderful.

  • I'm not defending this band. I think they sound HORRIBLE.  I've heard high school bands with better quality.

  • By the way...Michigan State is living off past reputation...Boring show, square unexciting sound. That is why University of Michigan gets in yall ass every year...

  • "yall"? Says a lot right there. And please, youre talking about the Michigan "cockroach-stomping" marching band. They bang around so much on their heels their sound is nearly as bad.

  • I guess pretty much like you just blanketed all HBCU's into your perception of what a band should sound like... I am from Memphis and I attend Tennessee State University, so naturally I will have a Southern/West Tennessee vernacular and dialect.

    And that banging "cockroach-stomping" sure puts a foot up in Michigan State's rear end.

  • wow that was almost amusing. shows how much somebody from Tennessee knows about Big Ten marching bands. of course I am sure you have attended the Michigan vs. Michigan State football games that last 26 years to be an authority on this. What a joke! LOL

  • The question is do I give a flying fluck about Big Ten Marching bands. I can get more entertainment out of a high school than I can some of those corny Big Ten programs.

  • Obviously NOT because you appear to be such an authority on them! Which is it? LOL Get over it, we dont agree.

  • SU has always been my second favorite band behind FAMU. But to be real, if it wasn't for the head snap (which they started), their dancers (probably the sexiest of college bands), and shear volume, they'd be comprable to a high school band as far as show and quality of sound.

  • I play brass instruments so im gonna just say this, No way your having a good sound blowing as hard as you can into the instrument like this trombonist I keep seeing

  • well it's actually control with power..BUTT he does look like he juss blowin dat ish with all his might.

  • Wanna be FAMU

  • They're entertaining, just not musical...

  • Amen to that! Marching precision, formations, creativity is second to none for SU, but their musical acumen just flat out SUcks!!! Musically, they are horrible!

  • I have one question.... Did he ACTUALLY fall in the last few seconds? LMAO

    (JSU fan here)...

  • these guys are horrible

  • its not gonna sound good if the camera jumps from one section to the other on the field, because you cant hear everybody playin like you do in the stands

  • i like SU and all but they tend to over shadow other instruments in the band in all the songs the play. the only instruments in that band i can hear are the trumpets and tubas.

  • The worst! Just fuggin awful!

  • Ii'm a southen fun but did yall see that trumpet bust his ass.

  • hahaha hell yeah I am a SU fan as well, and I have tapes & other footage where apparently it happens a lot. I have seen it about 15 times in the tapes I have.

  • Well to say that there are clips of SU sounding better, is not really saying alot. The average high school band sound better than this. SU need to grow up and start being musicians, how much air you can blow in a horn is not cute anymore. This is the only band that can turn a gradeful song into a train crash.

  • lol. All Norfolk has to offer is MDFS and they have even slipped down the previous years. NSU is an above average sounding band but when it comes down to drill, Power, MUSICIANSHIP... Norfolk cannot hang with Southern. I have given you some proof

    Have fun

  • Please, save that non-sense for the jaguar fans and the non-musicians. Holla at me when you want logical and educated input.

  • What the hekk are u talking about, NSU has just developed power in the last few years. SU has maintaned there reputation for destroying bands just like u for the past 30 years."WAKE UP NSU" lol Have fun blowing on A&T.

  • Yes, I agree that this clip sounds like trash but we all know that this is not typical SU. "CLOWNS"

  • ACTUALLY IF YOU WATCH THE BAYOU CLASSIC THE PREVIOUS WEEK, YOU WOULD HERE THE TRUE SOUND AND POWER. BUT THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET CHEAP ELECTRONIC SOUND EQUIPMENT FOCUSED ON JUST ONE SECTION OF THE BAND AND HAVING ONE MICROPHONE PLACED BEHIND THE BAND AND AND THE OTHER MICROPHONE ON THE OTHER SIDE TRAINED ON ONE PERSON. YOU WILL GET A SH**TY SOUND. THANKS AGAIN BET!!! BUT DUDE FALLING AT THE END WAS FUNNY AS H*LL

  • That's funny because how come Norfolk never sound like trash when the cameras are focused on one section? The microphones are only recording what it hears!

  • I actually have some clips of the legion in action go through the same "problems" as SU is in this video. So it is not a case of "microphones are only recording what it hears", it is very bad quality. cheap sound equiptment. Either way, the legion is not up to par with Southern

  • Everyone knows Norfolk has better level of musicality than Southern, you can ask any musician. But can you post these clips you say you have? Care recall what game and year it was, I will guarantee anything you upload of NSU will not sound like this. Every section of NSU is on point, therefore when the camera singles an individual section or group, the quality will still be there. Unlike SU when the only time they sound good is as a whole, they play loud enough to cover up mistakes.

  • These clips are from google video of NSU

    if you would click on the right hand side of the screen, there is more from the same game. But to be fair this camera was in the stands not on the field but it did catch some "off" parts at this angle

    http://video.google.com/videop­lay?docid=7609944240610680600&­q

  • And in terms of musicality regarding SU, you can actually look at other SU video clips and find virtually all of them sounding better than what is being played on this page. You can also go to:www.marchingsport.com or www.humanjukebox.com

  • Oh my goodness, are you seriously comparing that clip to this clip? It's like you want SU to look bad. The sad part is that the audio quality NSU was recorded with was worse than this and the Legion still sound better than SU on their best day.

  • interms of that clip, I wanted you to look at the side bar. NOW if I really wanted to embarass Norfolk, I would have dubbed one my "personal" live shows. Unfortunately, I am not able to because YOUtube is saying that the file is to big.

  • TRUE

  • The best part of the show was when the dolls came out. The Band and everything else was just a mess.

  • lol that show was cold but yall should have beat that nigga ass for that.

  • that sound like trash but the boy falling at the in was funny but i hope they sound better at pratice

  • this sounds horrible!!!!!....but it was cold as HELL

  • it sounds that way because they got the camera right in front of one intrument when they walk through the band.

  • I hate the cameramen? that film halftime shows. Them beautiful women was doing their thang and the camera pans to the tubas or something like that. Are they gay?

  • I agree with you about the cameramen. Nevertheless, the dancing dolls looked so damn good on this clip. Those girls are beautiful!!!

  • Not saying people dont get tired, but you all are suppose to be the best and all that other stuff right? SU is suppose to be the people's champ. Right?

  • It's more like people's chump. All hype and no show.

  • in the middle of the show a nigga gets tired so u sayin u can play the whole show as long as SU drills are nigaa plz

  • This is not very good at all....No marching just walking....let me not even talk about the sound...

  • Did you see that guy fall he was trying a little too hard.........lol

  • Actually he did it on purpose. I watched them practice.

  • He didnt do it on purpose he just kept slipping at practice and what u do at practice is what u do at the performance so whatever..........

  • If that's the case then he was pissed cause he had to fall about 20 damn times cause they practiced that alot!
