@lurch028 Almost all of the BIg Ten Bands do, as it is not common that bands travel in the Big Ten, and a short version is incorporated into the pregames of the bands for other fight songs
-
@lurch028 Michigan State does that too.

Tradition and Respect for all visitor to Neyland. Standard at Tennessee. Go VOLS!!
-
@lurch028 Most of the BigTen (or whatever you want to call it now) do this

Someone told me this was an a-hole thing for the band to do... to play the fight song better than the other team's band.
-
that is a pretty cool thing!!!

I think Oklahoma does, or in the case where the visiting band is present, they pause and let them play their fight song, and then continue on with pregame.

Actually, this was a normal occurrence back in the day. It was like a sign of respect and way of saying thanks for coming so to speak. Thats cool that UTs band did that though, and I now have a new found respect for the university.
Classiest band in the nation... who else plays the other teams fight song? Notre Dame I've heard does it too but other than that it's unheard of

I'm a Bulldog. circa 1966 . The TN Band's welcome is over the top cool and something all the SEC bands should do. Thanks UT.
