If Big 12 Teams were rock bands...(SIAP)

Interesting but not enough snark to make it great: http://landgrantgauntlet.com/2016/06/29/if-big-12-schools-were-rock-bands/

Texas as Kiss is spot on

I am fine with being the Motorhead of the big 12 out of the other options, I would prefer it.... heheheheh

 

[CYISFLY]

I'll take Motorhead any day.

So if God and Lemmy get into a fight who wins

 

[TXCyclones]

I haven't read it yet. But if it doesn't say that KSU is Nickelback then they're all wrong.


Edit: Now that I've read it, that list is horrible. Baylor is either Lostprophets or that Gary Glitter dude.

Quite a few ways you could go on a list like that. It'd be harder than it seems to do it well.

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

Just because

Up until this year, we were Deep Purple...the only people on earth still playing Smoke on the Water.

Sage's middle name is Jamen? I had no clue.

Mmm ... maybe that's a candidate for Entrance Song ... (studio version probably preferable — increased live-tempo might be a little too "juiced.").

Bonus: Lyrics work in sports-stadium context: "Only way to feel the noise is when it's good and loud/So good I can't believe it, screamin' with the crowd..."

If I tried to write a similar analysis, I doubt I would’ve come up with Kansas State as Pearl Jam, but that might be the most creative entry on the list.

Continuing the parallel: Does it mean “Yield” is the equivalent of the 1998 Big 12 championship game? Is Hayden Fry the Stone Gossard of college football?

**** Yeah Motorhead Baby!

For the same reason we aren't Slipknot? I used to think watching ISU''s defense was comparable to 11 masked men on stage, not doing anything particularly amazing. Just smashing their bodies into stuff and calling it music.

Because Kansas the band is far superior to Kansas the football team.

Hell Kansas the band might be better at football than Kansas the team!

Hail Motorhead! RIP Lemmy!!!

If this was written for the Big 10 I'm guessing Penn State would be Gary Glitter.

Suggestions for Iowa?

Maybe Justin Bieber? Everybody here hates the Biebs (WDSM excluded).
