    50 Greatest Traditions of College Football

    Found the following...

    College football and tradition go hand in hand. In fact, college football itself is a part of some of the biggest traditions in American society come fall and winter...


    EA should be looking to add a large number of these things to the game. They're pushing Tradition and Pagentry, well this list as it all. Having played MLB - The Show, where the little details are all over the game, this is the type of stuff EA needs to add to improve atmosphere in the game.

    This guy seriously left out Howard's Rock?...which probably belongs in the top 3....and what about Corso's head gear?

        Dotting the "i" really only 11? That I thought was a top 3 lock.
        And surprised by no Howard's Rock at all.
        Also no Michigan tapping the "GO BLUE" banner.
        Seemed awfully heavy on the SEC too, they're might be just a larger number of traditions down there though.

          This is a joke, I mean I am a Clemson fan but seriously does anyone else not think touching the rock and running down the hill is one of the coolest traditions? And frickin' Carolina gets the swaying crap? There our rivals and I've never even heard of that and EVERYONE knows of Howard's Rock. And although I hate FSU but leaving out the tomahawk chop is just stupid. Along with Michigan's Blue Banner that's just sick. And no offense but Cal's hill is on here never heard of it. I will note this article did put in some very good traditions but leaving out Howard's Rock should be considered murder.

            I'm not really a fan of Clemson but man, seeing them rub and run is the best 30 seconds in sports..unless you're Rick Pittino....

                I'm guessing this author was a Notre Dame fan. I mean, even as a U of M fan and hating ND, I get the Play like a Champion sign being number 1. But no Michigan banner touching, no Howard's Rock, then something about people riding boats to Washington, and some hill in Cali that I've never heard of? Not a fan of this list.

                And Enter Sandman should be number 1. Biggest rush I've ever seen watching an entry. Even more than Howard's Rock.

                    If they had Nova circling the stadium pre-game while 88,000 computer generated fans scream WAR EAGLE, I would buy every EA game and DLC from here on out. That would be glorious to say the least.

                      Great list. Couldn't agree more! Michigan can kick rocks, haha.
