Countdown to Launch…

Folks, I’m really sorry but I just can’t wait
It’s not at all too soon, that upcoming date
When football season starts, pride and hope in all our hearts
And the pupils in the Student Section dilate

Our first game’s next Friday night (just for fun)
Versus Tulsa Golden Hurricane (What? There’s only one?)
These early games we host, sometimes we lose the most
Don’t miss it; it’s at four (Pacific Time) on FS One

We had a lot of Freshmen guys last year
And quarterback issues that made our eyes tear
There’s work to be done, but this season should be fun
I can’t wait to see State get it into gear.

Our defense has covered when our offense lacks.
Our great linebackers stop opposing running backs:
Willekes is now a captain, it’s his arms they’ll be wrapped in
as he and Bachie stop them in their tracks

And speaking of a fine, terrific way to start the season
It’s early yet (the students don’t even have their fees in!)
Only some are moved in, but it won’t matter; lose or win
The ones with couches and some fire need no reason

But wait! There’s more!

There’s shade coming outta Tulsa’s crannies and nooks
They have a running back whose mouth is getting strange looks
He says they’ll rush 200 yards, but I don’t think that’s in the cards
And he’s just a backup! (Number one’s Shamari Brooks.)

We hope your summer has been great
But now we’ll say it to you straight:
You know how this story ends, it has to be this way, my friends;
let’s say it all together now: GO STATE!
