Down the Field
"Down the Field" is the fight song for Syracuse University, a private research university located in Syracuse, New York, United States. It is commonly played after SU scores in athletic matches. The words were written by Ralph Murphy, Class of 1916; the music was composed by C. Harold Lewis, Class of 1915.
"Down the Field" is also the official fight song for University of Tennessee, a university located in Knoxville, Tennessee, United States. Music was arranged by Barry McDonald, based on the "Down the Field March" by Yale University, written Stanleigh P. Friedman. However, "Rocky Top" is frequently played at the university, making it the unofficial fight song, and is a favorite among fans. Whenever the Volunteers score a touchdown, "Down the Field" is played first, followed by "Rocky Top".
