Better Intro?

[Muskie]

Irrespective of the Players Involved in the video. Which one gets you more hyped?

Team 93 Intro

Team 94 Intro

[D-West & PO-Z]

Team 94 but neither is close to the best we've had.

[xujigga]

The 2012-2013 Intro is the best:

[X-Men]

Both are solid, neither is great. I give the edge to Team 94 though.

[XUMIOH12]

they had a new variation of the intro video at the game last night.

I was going to post the winner of this poll against this one next.

So far I'm the only guy that likes Xavier being splashed over Downtown?

[xufan2434]

My favorite ones are still from basically the JLove days. They all included March highlights that gave me chills...

However, last night's was unreal from the television aspect. Does anyone know if that's the first time X has had that where their intro gets shown on broadcast? Obviously with the camera angles and resources Fox has, it made it better but want to applaud them because I thought the whole thing was well done. Had Big Game Feel written all over it and was really cool to see simply because of how far this program has come. Also, have to believe any possible recruits watching the intro and the entire game for that matter may have grown their interest a bit in coming to X

Team 94 Intro

There actually was an updated Team 94 intro used the last 2-3 games but don't think it's been put up on YouTube. Think the additions make it much better than the Team 93 one.

[sirthought]

Neither of these are well executed.

The one with spots around town could be fine, but the running didn't work with the camera they used.

The studio shots of them dunking just aren't as exciting as real game footage.

[paulxu]

It would be copy-catting I guess, but I don't care.
I'd love to see our intro be set to the 2001 music the Gamecocks use.

Yeah, I liked the updated version that was used last night.

I prefer the videos of the last two years as well

Had nothing to do with X wanting it to happen. FS1 told them it was going to happen. My buddy told me thats the reason the anthem was moved as well.

Yeah I figured it was FS1 pushing for it.. I don't think they've ever had a big enough home game where the network wanted to do it. Pretty cool

[TUclutch]

Yea I thought it was awesome. Wish they had an angle to show the pyro but minor overall. I think it was because they had the pregame show in the arena

[XUMIOH12]

yeah it was for FS1 so they could do a pregame show and show the intros. They moved up the anthem to make it possible for tv.

the updated one they had last night has real game footage now, mostly from this year it looked like. They still have some of the studio cuts but more real highlights now.

[XUMIOH12]

i really liked that one but always thought the highlights they showed on the buildings were way too small to actually see, and that killed it for me.

[Caveat]

Screw the haters -- the 2014/2015 intro video is fire.

Xavier owns the City of Cincinnati.

[bleedXblue]

I'm not crazy about this years version...but its still ok. I have no idea the amount of resources needed to develop these every year. I still think our sound system is not the best and has a lot of room to improve.

Agree. I thought they revamped sound system a few years ago but it still has issues. I went to 6 women's games this season and sat in 108 with about 1,000 people and still had trouble hearing things at times. In 201 for my men's tickets, it's worse.

[markchal]

Was a big fan of the "Let's March" at the end of the intro last night.

Agreed. That was awesome. Loved how the player intros followed thereafter.

Anyone who has a link to the broadcast portion of this part, I will be in your debt.

yeah the sounds system is pretty bad. tough to understand what the announcer says a lot of times. I'm assuming that is one of the things they will upgrade during the renovations over the next few years

I did like that very much...

Yeah this one is their best.

[X-man]

I like the 2012-2013 Intro better than either of the Team Intros. But if I had to pick one of the Team versions, I would go with the updated Team94 version shown last evening.

[X Factor]

Not an intro video, but someone made this hype video and posted it yesterday before the game. Definitely got me hyped up!

[xufan2434]

Yeah this one is their best.

That one is my favorite X video ever. I don't think that's an intro though right? Thought they played that right before the 2nd half started

[XUMIOH12]

I think they played it before the game started, but i really cant remember if it was the "intro" video or just a video they played a little before that.

I like the video overall but that song absolutely ruins it for me. I think that song is freaking terrible and does nothing to pump me up.

From this year's crosstown shootout, with last year's theme. Loved it.

One cool thing they did at the game last night was have the live camera on the guys in the "tunnel" before they came out to meet the crowd. They were so pumped up and excited and having fun celebrating that it was fun to see!

They do that every game. I see a Cintas camera guy there every game

[Backyard Champ]

I could be wrong, but I think that they still play this before every game. 5minutes before game time. If not this video, a very similar one. I realize it's not the intro video, but still good way to get hyped before the game.

[XURunner85]

There are things I like about each one. I like Jalen's scream in last years. XUSurf and I do that scream after the end of this years. I like that this years shows Xavier and not the streets of Cincinnati. But the music on each really doesn't fire me up. The beers before the game do that.
