The Top TEN College Football Traditions......

10. The Cadets' March, Army

2. Dotting the I, Ohio StateThe Ohio State Marching Band plays "Le Regiment" and spells out O-h-i-o in script lettering. The drum major points to the top of the 'i,' and a fourth- or fifth-year sousaphone player dots the 'i,' doffs his hat and bows to each side of the stadium.
1. Running Down the Hill, ClemsonThe greatest entrance in college football sends 83,000 fans at Memorial Stadium into a frenzy. Players gather at the top of the east end zone's hill and touch Howard's Rock. A cannon is fired, and the players sprint onto the field. "It's the most emotional experience I've ever had," former Clemson All-American Michael Dean Perry once said.

The spotlight often gravitates towards top transfers like Keon Coleman and Sam Hartman, but hidden gems emerge from less glamorous backgrounds.
