With this weekend being the last weekend before the start of the 2009 college football season (at the FBS level), I'd like to revisit one of the best part of college football--the pageantry.

The pageantry would include the bands, the cheerleaders, the mascots and the traditions.

With that said, let's hear your favorites in those categories. Maybe rank them (top 5, top 10, etc) or just pick your one favorite in each of those.

So what band(s), cheerleaders, mascot(s) and tradition(s) do you like and impressed you?

As for cheerleaders I like USC's the best. Macot's: Brutus The Buckeye, that is the only think thing I like about OSU.  Band: Michigan.  Tradition: the Michigan players running out from under the M Club banner at Michigan stadium.

I like the bands and the fight songs.

Southern Cal's cheerleaders are awesome...must be the sweaters.
