happened during the 4th quarter...indistinct at first, then it kept getting louder and louder - loved it! sent chills down my spine!

That definately can be a cheer that sticks around a while! You gotta love it!
I did love it. It was awesome. THAT is the way it is supposed to be! Let's don't wait till the 4th quarter next game!
It wasn't long and contrieved -
It wasn't planned -
It was SIMPLE and EFFECTIVE -
Just what it needed to be -
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
Sounded great, too. Sounded more like 50K fans than 25K. Everybody was really into it.

i thought the timing of it was perfect. not sure how/who started it but kudos!
Yeah, I liked that too. Not sure who started that, but I see a t-shirt with that coming in the near future.
On a side note, it sure beats the HELL out move the chains, move the chains...That is so high school sounding. Something just not right about cheering a first down. It should be banned!
the cheerleaders asked Jim Robken to start it; but he worked it and worked it until it got the crowd in a frenzy.
Great going; it was quite nice
It was an awesome moment that needs to be happen every game! And MTC is also a tradition that should never die.
Quit that. I LOVE "Move the Chains". It is my all time favorite! I had my nieces with me, and Cal&Ken has failed in her job of teaching them the finer points of football (I probably knew when I was five, huh?). Anyway, that was a great teaching tool cheer - I could show 'em they'd get to do it when WE had the ball and we got to that far orange marker with the ball. I'm sure they'll be bleacher coaches like the rest of you guys by the end of the season!
I told my son on the way home that I thought that moment was when the La Tech crowd came of age. Its always been east side vs west side, young crowd vs blue hairs, etc etc etc. At that moment, we became ONE. And the way it started, barely perceptable and built to a crescendo, made the hair on the back of my neck stand on end. I hate organized cheers and when that was first introduced, I thought how panzy ass can you get. Like trying to get one side to say "Go" and the other side to say Bulldogs. That is so lame. In order to work, cheers need to be spontaneous and spring up from the passion of the moment like "How Bout Dem Dawgs," and I like "Move the Chains." But the way this happened in the 4th quarter was spontaneous and from the heart and it worked.
