LSU fan here. Heard this in 2002 when we played y’all in the Sugar Bowl. Thought it was a badass chant. Sorry, guess chalk another one up to political correctness 🤦🏻♂️
As a Penn Stater, even with the outcome of this game, I wanted to say that I always have thought the Illini warchant was awesome. It looms overhead with an eerie tone, and never failed to get people clapping along. It's a damn shame ya'all were forced to drop the tradition. The new block I logo is a joke compared to the round chief emblem. Cheers guys
thanks to the trend of everyone not being able to handle jokes or even tradition they felt so offended that they were "entitled" to end a illinois tradition 🙄
I love to hate on IL, but this is just beyond freaking sad that an ages old cheer and a few notes are being punted because, well because why again? Notes are now inherently racist too? Good great xenu is PC culture sadly taking over way too much.
How the hell was this seen as racist? Like I get dropping the native logo but this was just plain-ol music. Maybe this was like an actual chant used by natives back in the day but I highly doubt it.

As a Buckeye fan, I love the Illinois war chant. I'm sorry for your loss.
As a Penn State fan, I'd say I have to agree

How are yew five years later? Still in mourning?
Bring back the chief!
As a Badger fan I always have enjoyed the competition with the Illini. Your war chant and Chief Illiniwek were special.

Illinois has had this chant for years....how it became associated with FSU is WAY beyond me!
This is nowhere near the FSU warchant. Not even close. The Atlanta Braves and the Kansas City Chiefs use FSU chant.
@@Jonas-nf2bc sounds just like it! I am an FSU grad….
@@bremenrooster So am I lol. The only thing similar is the four count drum beat.
@@bremenrooster no it doesn't.
@@bremenrooster You should be ashamed if you're an FSU grad if you think the two war chants sound "just alike"

They love ending our traditions! They want the 3 in 1 gone as well
Thanks Jay Rothstein
ILL-INI!
🧡💙🧡💙 the warchant ~ did i hear correctly that this was eliminated also? 🙄
#chief
#illini
I sat next to the band. And I am now deaf. So sad. 🥺
Holy crap that’s cool
I am so fucking sad right now
Illinois without the chant is like USC without Tribune to Troy! Why did they ban this song i don't get it?
Need this energy 2nite
Yeah..unfortunately we ended up getting blown out in this game.
As someone who is part Native American, this was badass and not offensive in any way. Don’t get it. 🙆🏻♂️
When was this recorded
That looks like Matt McGloin for Penn State, so I'm thinking 2012 - Penn State 35 Illinois 7

Nothing beats the Florida State war chant thank you ann Bowden
RAAAAACCCCIIIIISSSSTTTT!
Rather support something "racist" than be a Hector Terrero.
If they're not going to bring back the war chant, Barry Freaking Hauser needs to get something just as epic to replace it. This is getting stupid.
I asked him about it summer of 2021 and he said that they replaced it with the DJ's pick.
I almost want to make a new chant
@@TheStickCollector barf. I don't care about the DJ. Let's hear the band!
Sorry that the woke crowd ruined it.

Underwhelming.
Wtf was the athletic director thinking??? The chant was the only reason why I like Illinois Univ.
BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!👎🏾
