I noticed after the game saturday Bama did the Rammer Jammer cheer. I wasnt familiar with it until I heard it and I noticed the line..."We just beat the hell outta you..." Did we copy that from them or did they copy from us.

I didn't know yall did it, too... I do know that Bama has been doin' it for very long time... certainly early 80s... prolly in the 70s if I had to guess...

I think we actually ripped it off from Ole Miss.

There a lot of schools that use that one. I'm sure at least half of them claim to be first.

yes I just read that. That is odd. I read the cheer even used to be called Ole Miss.

I think most schools work that into a cheer somehow.

I would say 50% or close to it of colleges do the same cheer. Just change a few words. It's been around forever.

Well....Ole Miss won't be using it very much in the future.

Baylor doesn't since they're a religious school. **

BYU does it but they substitute "heck" for "hell"...and any religious schools east of the Mississippi substitute "tar" for "hell"

They have done the Rammer Jammer chant for decades. They incorporated it into Rock&Roll2 whenever RR2 came about...mid 90s?

Regardless, maroon white fight fight fight....isn't copied from anyone. Everyone incorporates some chant or cheer into the song.

Are we copying them by having a football basketball and baseball teams? I'm sure they formed their before we did ours.

This is dumb. No we are not copying them by having a team but we would be if our colors were crimson and white and were the Crimson Tide.

The portion where they say..."We just beat the hell outta you" and "Were gonna beat the hell outta you" Is identical to what we say.

more than you probably ever have. Your comparison to copy them by having a team was dumb. I know every team has a cheer, but with I didnt realize they all had the same wording....and they don't. This was supposed to be a thread about finding out our and Bama's cheer origins.

if you have been to OM, Auburn, Arkansas or YouTube "we just beat the hell out of you"....you would know that exact line is used any time a school's band plays RR2.

The first time I remember us doing it was after we beat Alabama in 1996, so it could very well have been mocking Alabama. I think we liked it so we just kept doing it and added the “Woo!” later on around 1997 or 1998.

Like most traditions it was kind of spontaneous.

Thanks. This was the type of answer I was looking for.
