Indiana vs Maryland Game thread

Recommended Posts

Road wins at this point, especially where IU is at in the standing, are crucial.  

 

Being able to win on the road will be the factor that either keeps IU in the top 4 in the conference or not.  A lot riding on this one.  

 

I honestly think that we are in for a long night.  As others have noted, this team is not a road team.  Those Maryland fans are going to be U-G-L-Y tonight.

Those Maryland fans are ALWAYS ugly! They can't handle us Hoosiers....Coming to OUR B1G and taking over first place for a while, that's some Bull $hit. Those Twerkipins can kiss my Candy Striped A$$! (it really is white but i'm willing to paint some stripes)

 

TURTLE DOWN!

Indiana, Our Indiana
Words by Russell P. Harker, Melody taken from
"The Viking March", by Karl L. King
Indiana's most recognized fight song, "Indiana,
Our Indiana," was first performed by the IU Band
in November, 1912 at a football game against
Northwestern. The song has since been played at
every Indiana football and basketball game.
Indiana, Our Indiana
Indiana, we're all for you
We will fight for
the Cream & Crimson,
For the glory of Old IU
Never daunted, we cannot falter
In a battle, we're tried and true
Indiana, Our Indiana
Indiana, we're all for you!
Hail to Old IU
Words by J.T. Giles
Indiana's official Alma Mater song, "Hail to Old IU"
was first performed on March 10, 1893 in
Indianapolis. J.T. Giles, who organized the IU glee
club wrote the words to a Scottish song in order to
give the Hoosiers a school song for a performance at
a state contest. The song has been a mainstay at
Indiana events since that day.
Come and join in song together,
Shout with might and main;
Our beloved Alma Mater,
Sound her praise again.
Gloriana Frangipana, E'er to her be true.
She's the pride of Indiana,
Hail to Old IU!
Indiana Fight
Words and music by Leroy C. Hinkle
Indiana's popular fight song melody today, the
words to this song are rarely sung at an Indiana
sporting event. The crowd usually just sings "
GO! IU! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! Indiana, we're
all for you!" at the end of the song.
Fight for the Cream and Crimson,
Loyal sons of our old IU
Fight for your Alma Mater,
and the school you love so true.
Fight for old Indiana,
See her victories safely through,
GO! IU! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!
For the glory of old IU.
Chimes of Indiana
Words and music by Hoagy Carmichael
This song was composed by Indiana legend Hoagy
Carmichael. In 1937, the class of '35 presented this
song to the University as a gift. The song was
proposed as an official Alma Mater for many years
before the Alumni Association officially adopted it as
such in 1978.
Sing these chimes of Indiana,
Hail to the crimson hue;
Sing her praise to Gloriana,
Hail to our old IU
Lift your voices, join in loyal chorus
Let your heart rejoice in praise of those before us,
Sing these chimes of Indiana,
Ever to her be true!
Go Hoosiers!

I've played all of these songs hundreds of times over the past 4 years (except for Chimes, we only play that at our showcase concert) and I've never known the words to Fight or Chimes. Thanks for posting this!

Also, listen to the Viking March if you get the chance. It's a great piece of music that's only made better by the fact that we use its trio section for "Indiana, Our Indiana!" Karl King was an awesome composer. (End band nerdism)
