COUPLE React to Best Traditions in College Football Part 1 | OB DAVE 

Born and raised in Iowa, and a lifelong Hawkeye fan. The Wave to the Children's Hospital each game is so emotional in person. You can see the brave kiddos in the windows of the hospital waving back....makes me proud to be from Iowa. 🖤💛

For anyone that doesn't get why Americans love College Football, my advice is simple: Just watch, and see.

The most hilarious bit in this entire video is at 11:42 when Ash recognizes the song Country Roads and starts singing it to Dave with a big smile! That made me laugh out loud

Ash needs to see the Ohio State Marching Band! She'll love it! Yes, Dave that is Penn State's White Out game.

I did the wave at Iowa last year as a Northwestern fan, highlight of the trip.

College football is the best. Every Saturday morning to midnight. Drinking and eating all day and trolling all my friends.

The last college clip of the guy in overalls was from Texas A&M University. It is a huge agricultural school, hence the "Farmers Fight" chant.

GO SEMINOLES!🍢🍢🍢 FSU, FSU, FSU!!! Ash and Dave that’s my team.😵‍💫❤️💛❤️💛

Re the Iowa childrens hospital, They do that salute/wave every home football game at the end of the 1st quarter. Also many of the students visit the hospital and some also volunteer there. One of the biggest stars in college sports today is a member of the women's basketball team at Iowa, Caitlin Clark. She and her teammates often visit with the kids and don't announce it at all. Also, the "white out" game happens at Penn State University. The marching band you saw and spoke of was not Ohio Univ. but Ohio State Univ. Look for a video on Ohio State marching band salute to blockbuster movies. It is the halftime show of an OSU home game and is really fun. Another of theirs centers on a salute to Michael Jackson. Well worth a watch.

Feels like a lot of these clips are cut prematurely. Watching the team run onto the field to Enter Sandman, for example, is pretty awesome. A few of these videos cut before the best part.

As far as the Iowa hospital clip. There is a young man who as a child was in the hospital and is now today on the team. now that is a great story

6:00 to get to it, you're welcome

You'd love the College Game Day tribute video to the Hawkeye wave.

The one where they are walking through the tailgate is at Ole Miss at the grove! People set up the other before the game and cool all night in a place called “The Grove” on campus and it’s amazing! Our motto is “we may lose the game but we never lose a party!” 😂😂😂

Fighting does happen, but it's not as common and as much in the stadium as maybe outside the stadiums. Ppl can get legally charged, fined, and possibly banned for fighting in the stadiums. Many ppl go with their families, so it's not common for a fight to break out and have no bystanders step in to shut it down. It's usually more of a friendly rivalry than what seems to be in the Soccer leagues overseas.

Definitely HAVE to do part 2 now

The NFL package is cheaper now because the season is over halfway done.

Check out the Fighting Texas Aggie Marching Band (half time show from 2014) in addition to the Ohio State Marching Band. Two completely different, but excellent, college football bands. Both really impressive.

On my drive back to Texas, I just passed by Penn St and the beautiful Beaver Stadium where the white out takes place. I hope y’all have a chance to see Texas OU half burnt Orange, half crimson cream. The energy and atmosphere is amazing

I agree that these traditions are better with context and explanations... for example Texas A&M, midnight prior to the game the students show up for cheer practice in the stadium also stand the entire game to symbolize readiness to go in and play if needed (based off of a former player that returned to school when he got out of the military during WW2, I believe, and the team had several injuries and the coach sent someone into the stands and had him come put on a uniform in case they had more players hurt and needed him to fill in)... and if you want to experience tailgating at it's best then I recommend the Georgia/florida game ( always played on a neutral field in Jacksonville FL)... it is nicknamed "The world's largest outdoor cocktail party" it's not just outside the stadium but stretches for blocks around the stadium... that's just a couple, almost every school has their traditions... good fun... and GO DAWGS....

The last video is from Texas A&M's "Midnight Yell Practice" in College Station, TX the midnight before home games... Because A&M was started in the late 1800's as an all-male military prep school they had no female cheerleaders for their football team. Instead they had male "yell leaders". To this day the yell leaders use hand signals to tell the students what "yells" to do in unison throughout the stadium... The Aggies or Ags (as they're called) have now gone to a mixed male & female student body and military prep (the Corps Of Cadets) is optional. Although only about 2% of the students are in the Corps nowadays the entire university still keeps many of the old traditions like Midnight Yell Practice alive. Gig 'em!

Nothing beats going to an LSU game and watching the band march down the hill outside the stadium followed by the team walking to the stadium. They play for the fans and then march all the way to their seats in the stadium, playing the whole way.

This Saturday you must watch Georgia versus Alabama for the Southeastern conference championship

Texas A&M has yell leaders instead of cheerleaders. They are members of the corpe of cadets. That was midnight yell at the end. Fans gather in the stadium (or designated location for away games) and practice yells the night before the game.

Some of the smaller colleges have just as interesting traditions but because they can’t fit 100,000+ into their stadiums they go relatively unknown nationally. There’s several levels of college football depending on school size, funding and facilities. NCAA Division I (FBS & FCS) - FBS is the one most people are familiar with. NCAA Division II NCAA Division III NJCAA - Junior College or JUCO NAIA A vast majority of NFL players come from the NCAA Division I. However, the NFL will find talented players from any level of football. You don’t necessarily have to be drafted by a NFL team to play NFL football as a team can sign you as Free Agent and if you’re good enough you’ll make the NFL roster. Only 1.6 % of athletes who play college football end up playing in the NFL.

College football is becoming more popular in America and around the world. Its fun to watch!

Fisticuffs are pretty rare in US football games. However plenty of trash talking.

I'm glad they included the Walk of Champions through the Grove at Ole Miss. I used to do a lot of work on campus, and it is a beautiful place, and the Grove is the top tailgating venue of any college in the U.S.

The Team with the crowd in white are the Penn State Nittany Lions.

Definitely check out the full video on the Iowa Wave

Tailgating at college football games are much better I've been to a few.

We call those seats way up at the top of the stadium "the nose bleed section "

Dude!.... I just gotta say that it seems you won the lottery with Ashe, awesome lady👍🇺🇸🇬🇧

That’s not why it’s more popular than pro. Even cities with pro teams are just as enthusiastic about college. I just think it’s more about tradition more than anything

You'll see the fighting because it's unusual. As usual drunks at games get into pushing mashes. When you consider the tens of thousands of games every weekend, the energy of the crowd and the amount of alcohol involved, the violence is pretty low. I'm 69 years old and was a teacher (so I was in charge of parking lots, etc. after games which is when kids'll fight.) I have only broken up six fights and five of them were "adults". I think most people are pretty well behaved.

There aren't a lot of fights when you consider there are 32 nfl teams which means 16 games (minus a few for bye weeks) each week. 16 games times stadiums that hold say 70k each you are looking at 1.1M people.

College foorball has many great traditions and long-time rivalries between teams as well between conferences. I've had season tickets to thw Iowa Hawkeyes for 35+ years and have traveled to many away games for regular season and bowl games and my experiences have been almost always very rewarding - great meeting and tailgating (and partying) with fans from the other teams and enjoying the atmosphere of their stadiums. When not in a stadium friends have gameday get togethers either at homes or meet up at an establishment to watch the games. Its a great culture to be a part of and everyone has pride in their teams, win or lose... and glad to say other than some some very isolated cases (2) I've never seen a fight... some spirited shouting matches but not fights.. people want to see their teams win but are out to have good time as well,

I can't talk about everyone else but I love your intro chats lol. Some banter, some cute moments lol and sometimes something pointless but still funny lol. I know Dave adopted the Eagles 🦅🦅🦅 as has NFL team while at the OBs but what is Ash's favorite team? If she has one. Eagles fans are definitely considered some of the most if not the most obnoxious and violent fans in the whole NFL, dont be discouraged Ash, nobody likes them lol 😂😂😂. Definitely show her the Ohio State marching band shows 🔥🔥🔥. Cheers guys, love your vids, keep it up 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This is some seriously fun stuff for this Chicagoan!

Dixie land Delight belongs to my beloved Crimson Tide of Alabama. Tuscaloosa Al has its own heartbeat on Saturdays.

And even so, college head coaches have state troopers as bodyguards during the game....

Fighting does happen but it is not as common as you think and most times the people stop it most times it is one drunk person and another drunk person and someone says something stupid and they kick off but most people stop them and then they get kicked out of the stadium that is why most fights don’t happen cause they will just kick you out and tickets are not cheap

The cowbells belong to Mississippi state Bulldogs in Starkville. They can bang the cowbells the whole game but they must stop when the offensive players take the line of scrimmage

Arrowhead stadium is absolutely the best for tailgating.

Wow they really didn't cover many of the big teams!!! You guys need to come to Wisconsin and check out the Wisconsin Badgers, we're in the Big 10 Conference and one of the most famous schools and college football teams in the country and our tailgating is absolutely world famous, it's on a different level Ash, you need it in your life at least once!!!!!!!

That chokes me up too Dave.

Love it Dave! Love college football reactions

Idk if either of you have ever seen a show called Neds Declassified. But your old lady looks like she could be twins with one of the main characters. Crazy resemblance.

Lived in Iowa City and I would party all night before games and than tailgate and eat some big old turkey legs. It is the White Out...it's Penn State. My nephew's middle name is Nile after Nile Kinnick who played for Iowa and the stadium is named after. Brother in law is die hard fan. My sisters went to college there...one got here nursing degree there and works at the Children's hospital in Chicago.

This was sort of blue balling it. The videos would cut right before they actually show what each college team does when the players enter the field

University of Michigan is the stadium you're thinking of. The biggest in the country.

welcome to the college football rabbit hole...more college football reactions plz

I think that the long unscripted talks at the beginning are kind of cool. Just like with the OB Main Channel, just continue on with the vibe. 😉

A superbowl party in England? While I am all for it, it's just surprising that there's enough fans over there to justify doing that. Hopefully it does well.

The fans singing Country Roads are actual West Virginia fans.

I'm from Green Bay, Wisconsin and the Packers are our NFL team. Madison, however, is the capital city of the state and at 9:43 'Jump Around' is where that footage is taken. They do it 3rd quarter every home game. This was after COVID - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SoXHXLYTAgs.html

Go Hawks! The wave makes me proud to be an Iowan!

GO VOLS!!!

The Wave at Iowa will never be topped. But as far as hype? Virginia Tech entering to Enter Sandman at home games send Clemson are amazing.

The problem with a lot of these videos is that they don't give context or explanation of what the tradition is or what and why it is being done.

There are some really tough rivalries with fights, etc. in US NFL and college football, but they don't happen often or go very far for a couple or reasons, I think. First, our cops here typically don't take any sh@t and will happily whip your ass if you really misbehave, and they all carry guns and other instruments of pain (relatedly, the security at games will usher your butt out of there if you are misbehaving, or get a cop or cops to do it). Second might be off but there is sooooo much violence on the field that fans don't bring it off, whereas in UK football, there is no violence and hardly much contact--so the fans get hammered at the pub before (or during) the game and have beer muscles when they get offended by the other fans or if their team is playing poorly. Just a couple of hypotheses.

Missed running through the T at Univ of Tennessee home games

Ash, you gave up NFL Pass... more fish, chips, and tacos for you!!!!

Sign me up for a "tail" party. lol

Ash just went to a 10 in my book smart girl that likes sports! Jackpot Dave

Ash seems to know about the NFL. As a Chiefs fan, I recommend reacting to Mahomes greatest plays

You should do a video on the largest US college football stadiums. They’re the largest in the world. Many seat over 100K people.

Fan fights in US are usually rare and very small.

You guys are Dash

Oh please please show her the Ohio marching band doing the "movies". She'd enjoy it a lot I think. Great video. Thanks.😊

They didn`t show the tigers running down the hill...that`s sad.

Hail to the victors!

I will take this opportunity to declare my eternal loyalty to Florida State! Yup, even after the recent Orange Bowl...

10:20 for penn state the song they no longer play the song if I remember because I'm a wisconsin fan the jump around one and we played it at games just as a song but couldn't against penn state and they don't either because a coach would touch little kids ifykyk and so you know the song goes touching me touching you so you can get where that goes and why they wont play it no more there other chants are still great though

Fighting rarely happens here here.

to be fair... re: the Eagles and fights in the stands... the Eagles are a notoriously rowdy, wild, insane bunch.

I'm a graduate of the United States Air Force Academy, my son is a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, my second son-in-law's brother is a graduate of the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, my father is a graduate of South Dakota State University (B.S.), the University of Wyoming (M.S.), and the University of Texas at Austin (Ph.D.), my elder brother graduated from the University of New Mexico, my younger brother worked for THE Ohio State University, my sister graduated from Colorado State University, my youngest daughter and her husband from the University of Texas at San Antonio, my father-in-law from North Dakota State University (B.S.) and Purdue University (M.S.); I've lived in 16 states in the United States, so I'm very familiar with the classic college football rivalries all over the country. There are many great traditions in college football. First and foremost are the traditions related to the Army - Navy game, which is always the last regular season college football game every year. What I haven't yet mentioned are my two eldest daughters who are graduates of Texas A&M University at College Station, and in all of my experience, there is NO college that has greater, deeper, and more meaningful traditions than Texas A&M. Going to a home game in College Station, Texas, is like going to church. The Aggies of Texas A&M never lose--they may run out of time, or they may be outscored, BUT AGGIES NEVER LOSE.

Anytime you put 50k people in a stadium, who have been drinking beer for several hours, you're going to have fights though they're not THAT common.

The last one that you didn't get, it's because its literally nonsense. It looks like uncle bucky and aunt berthas kid got kicked in the head by a mule and he's allowed to do a little dance.

Yes penn state that was the white out

reacts Bebe Rexha x David Guetta - “I'm Good (Blue)” and “On In a Million” [2023 Billboard Music Awards]🙏🏽

The top 10 biggest football stadiums are college stadiums

NFL pass gets cheaper as it get further into the season cause there is less games to show towards end of the season

Texas A&M has male yell leaders instead of cheerleaders. They were traditionally an all men’s school that first allowed women in the 70’s.

Iowa Hawkeyes🖤💛

The Philadelphia Eagles used to have a small courtroom and jail inside of their stadium. Local judges would take turns presiding during home games. That is how bad things used to be at Eagles games. It has improved slightly over the years.

5:54

Lol she thinks we all get along at games. We hate each other, but keep the fighting to a minimum.

Roll Tide 🤘

nfl pass was like 400 dollars. so i bought a cheap app and got the whole season for 40 bucks. Oh well..... good thing my monitor is better than my tv lol.

Such a lovely partner you have Dave.😍

What’s a quid?

Ummm, she said there's something called..."battle bar"?! Please elaborate.

College football is way better than NFL. More passion, better traditions, better atmosphere...

This Woman. ❤❤❤❤🔥🔥💥💥❤❤ Love ja Dave but she is the Goddess that real men want. OMG,,, that Vixen is both gorgeous and Right. .. ... .. Brother I'm on your side but dammit man.

NFL v NCAA

Michigan biggest Ohio state second penn state white out is always against these two

There are some exceptions to this, but the best 'Tail-gating' will probably be at NFL games. LOL!! There can be violence in the stands & Philly is one of the worst. But generally they are well behaved. Even in Philadelphia.

Whether they win or lose everyone in America knows Philadelphia Eagles fans are the worst in the league, they're the exception not the rule💯

Penn state white out
