Man I can't believe I'm still watching this clip in 2021.... that 2009 legion was on one, no hbcu could f with em pound for pound...... no not even su...... smmfh.
I wish we could get a decent sized alumni band together. I really want to have a botb of us vs the current legion. If we could get 100 instruments from 1998 to 04, we would crank
Up until 2010 no meac band except a&t could touch us (the legion) And they had to be on 100%. We were Golden State. And every band that came close counted it as a win.
i like this battle because scsu didnt let nsu push them around even tho nsu played espn back at them(louder)....scsu didnt stop playing........GOOD JOB SCSU!!!
I trying to remember what SCSU played to start all this. I know NSU was about to leave, but they stopped cause SCSU asked for more. But I can remember what they played. Any help?
@Illculture they played their 'Can You Feel It' fanfare... sounded good honestly ... the battle was SUPPOSED to be over but just as the DM's were going to call off Behold and have us leave they started trying to play... and we wont havin dat... you DONT interrupt Behold... plain and simple.
Why not they went at famu and bcu why be scare of a band that the same size as you Norfolk don't try to over power u with sound they out play you with music I never been to nsu I am just stating the turth
lol....i was thinkin the same thing till i decided to look it up on youtube. Miles is a little known school...im guessin its a hbcu. they got them playin dirty diana on here too. dont sound good at all
NSU was like “Y’all done? We’ll pick up where y’all left off” 😂😂😂
been coming back to this video for over a decade
This was one of the best battles Ive EVER been too. So much intensity. Much respect to both schools.
marching 101 alum
There isn't no coming back after NSU slayed them!
I would have retired my horn after NSU hit playback! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Agreed
at 2:57 NSU sez: I'll pick up YOUR song and PUNCH you in the FaCe with it!
I really miss these gym battles
NO BAND plays “Dirty Diana” better than NSU LEGION 😮💨
Nsu Went Crazy💯💯
that's when nsu was the shit
yep!!
Brooooo!
I like seeing videos of the old MEAC bands they used to be a real beast.
Did you hear that "Word Up" by the Euphoniums in ESPN?? That counter-melody is crazy. NSU smashed they azz.
I'M IN LOVE WITH STATE BUT I'M SORRY NSU KILLED IT
lol i still laugh at the camera man... "Whoohoohoo! ... *pans to SCSU* What YA'LL got??"
lmao the fact that The Legion finished SCSU's sentence is TOO funny...i am a proud retired Legion Member
Man I can't believe I'm still watching this clip in 2021.... that 2009 legion was on one, no hbcu could f with em pound for pound...... no not even su...... smmfh.
Norfolk you have the best ESPN of all HBCU bands. Keep it comin NSU!
Nope
@@deneciaolawumi2159Yes
I MISS 09 BAND!!!!! COME BACK NSU 09 !!!!
NSU...you know you wrong for that...
You gotta go with the Legion on this one. They been crankin on everyone this year.
As much as I like SCSU, NSU went HAM on dat ass!!!!!!
I wish we could get a decent sized alumni band together. I really want to have a botb of us vs the current legion. If we could get 100 instruments from 1998 to 04, we would crank
I’m down
Edit: sounds like it's possible in 2024
Definitely in 2024
I think I woulda jizzed my pants had I been there in person. NSU gave it to them, hands down
nsu cranked on sucs i mean scsu
nsu majorettes shook it too espically on espn
Up until 2010 no meac band except a&t could touch us (the legion) And they had to be on 100%. We were Golden State. And every band that came close counted it as a win.
The stories people tell their children...
NSU KILLES IT EVRY TIME!!!! DEY DOES HARD!!!!
NSU dem Tubas came in strong
@GB19791 That's probably because NSU BD and music arranger are grads of SU.
I pretty sure they wanted to be hire at Norfolk state Dr. Fears build a very good program there
and we were blowin like this like 2 hours into the battle. SCSU couldn't hang with us.
Both bands were Brilliant tho' #musicianship #hbcu
maaaaaaaaaaaaan i miss this!
Two Songs You NEVER play in a Battle with the Spartan Legion: Dirty Diana and ESPN...
It's a shame what they did to that Dawg... #SMH
they sound so good..!
3:49 band director had me weak "get cho ass down" lol
SCSU needed to retire after this gym battle.🤣😂
@legion2004 Wow...I just noticed that. What was the thinking behind twirling their cymbals....at the tuba section?? LOL
I think Miles dirty Diana is still the truth
i like this battle because scsu didnt let nsu push them around even tho nsu played espn back at them(louder)....scsu didnt stop playing........GOOD JOB SCSU!!!
NSU Got this one.
This shit went HARD...IM JUMPIN UP N DOWN N MY SEAT LIKE DAYUM...lmmfao
I love all the boo's at the end for SCSU. NSU murdered them
Hell Yah yah seet NSU mi seh!!!
Really? ESPN? We played that in SEVENTH GRADE!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I LOVE MY HBCU
look at SCSU's band director talkin to the drum major at the very end. he was like "get yo ass down now. you just made us look bad"
@DaBeast1019 IKR, this comin from a Su fan all the way in louisiana
LOL at the end it looked like the BD went up to the drum major and said get da hell off dat ladder...
I marched for Hampton in the late 80's when Hampton feared no one. I am not even gonna front. NSU stomped a mud hole in SC State.
daaaaamn that dirty diana was freakin crazy !
SCSU playing ESPN to Norfolk was a mistake ....Period... they have one of the best versions in my opinion... Live and Lean SCSU lol
i love bein' on marching band just because i get to be rite there in tha middle of the madness !
I trying to remember what SCSU played to start all this. I know NSU was about to leave, but they stopped cause SCSU asked for more. But I can remember what they played.
Any help?
@Illculture they played their 'Can You Feel It' fanfare... sounded good honestly ... the battle was SUPPOSED to be over but just as the DM's were going to call off Behold and have us leave they started trying to play... and we wont havin dat... you DONT interrupt Behold... plain and simple.

2:58 They hit the "Turn up" button
1:14 my guy
NSU scarred them up.
Come on now, let's be serious. Crowd response says it all. Cant come toNSU with old songs.
i hope i get to be apart of nsu tnt
@ThriceCreme wow! scsu i love u but. you were NOT ready for the BLOWBACK
totally agree....that mess they got on youtube barly sounds like the song with extra parts and all
nsu fucking deep
The tried to interrupt Behold.....smh......they had that coming lol
NSU all the way!
I bet they won't come at jsu or southern University like that.
Why wouldn’t they.....Norfolk is supposed to be scared of them!! 🙄
Why not they went at famu and bcu why be scare of a band that the same size as you Norfolk don't try to over power u with sound they out play you with music I never been to nsu I am just stating the turth
@Freemsn928 datz "crankin" song i guess
Who’s here after The Honda post on IG 😮💨
That is Sad One Band Performs Everyone is Silent When The Other Band Performs The Same Song Everyone is Turned Up But Both Bands Are Amazing
Turnet up Then Down
That's real school loyalty nothing wrong with it
Pink Anon South Carolina state was not the smaller band that day they were the largest of the two
Makes a white boy want to go to NSU, hahaha
NSUUU killin lol
Every time I see this I laugh, lolololol!!!!!!!!!!
they're good..!
I think all their euphs shold just apply to NSU already... they try so hard to be like us...
no way!!!!!! NSU ALL DAY. SCSU did good but NSU was killin on dirty diana n ESPN. it was extremely powerful
How do you play espn to Dirty Diana 😂
and that was powerless as well, lol!
Half of SCSU band are horn holders
DAMN NSU, They cranked that shit at 2:57.
lol....i was thinkin the same thing till i decided to look it up on youtube. Miles is a little known school...im guessin its a hbcu. they got them playin dirty diana on here too. dont sound good at all
@pmm02nupe05 Miles who??? Davis??? lol
Yes, but they made it awesome.
NSU first round knock out
NSU is deadly
all these bands miss judge nsu espn band arrangement i dont think any band can compete with that but im still gonna rep my band bcu all the way
