My god...didn't anyone learn after that abortion by Jennifer Hudson.

It's a classic. It is a tradition. Disappointing.

I don't have the slightest idea what you're talking about.

Watching Noah do the Gator chomp with the Gator fans/students was just awesome.

Lots of great memories in those. I hope some of you enjoyed them.

It is nice to go back and remember how magical those years were! I like the One Shining Moment tradition... it is part of the tourney to me, even if the song isn't great.

Agreed. It is just part of the overall experience. If you don't like it then just turn the TV off at the end. The video montage and song go hand in hand.

This is one of my VERY favorite moments in Gator history. I honestly still cannot believe that we won back to back championships. We have come a long way from the 5-22 disaster in 1981-82 when I first purchased season tickets.

:bwahaha:

They still play that goofy song?

What would you suggest they replace it with?
Some random hip hop song or something from One Direction?

Tradition is just that, tradition. I enjoy the annual ritual but then, I am an old guy.

I'm usually averse to change, being old and all, but I think OSM has run it's course. Time for something new.
Also found it interesting at the end of each NC game the announcers said 'despite losing, congrats to UCLA/Ohio State for Ben Howland/Thad Matta for bringing their programs back to national prominence'. Word for word from year to year, just substitute the team/coach. Seems kinda weird.

One Shining Moment is one of the best things about the NCAA Tournament. It's a crime that they tried to change it once and an even bigger one that they are doing it again. I love the song and the tradition!

Keep the tradition, I got no problem with that. They need a new song.
