[@dayvonsavage315]

Dizziacs almost back at full strength. Grands smashing on that opening piece.

[@RasAlXander]

Norfolk State sounds magnificent.

[@demondbraxton1311]

Power!!!!!

[@miguelt6005]

Can “I can’t wait” and “congratulations” get their own video ?

[@bakerbuff2474]

Norfolk sounded excellent!!!!

[@Icn2013]

That "I can't wait " was on point tho 👌🏾

[@yadabenyisrael4092]

Great Arrangements Norfolk State!!!!!!! Intonation and phrasing is CRISP.........Good job young people................AEA...

[@kristianruffin3782]

Yada BenYisrael
Shalom

[@saxmanboogie]

"Be Scared" is one hell of an arrangement smh

[@devinpowell1276]

What's the real song?? I can't find it

[@miguelt6005]

devin powell it’s an original composition from their old director

[@devinpowell1276]

Ok but who is the artist? I want 2 hear the song. I've never heard it...

[@UnsolvedMystery80]

devin powell It's an original piece written by an old director. Meaning he made the song himself.

[@miguelt6005]

UnsolvedMystery80 I was trying to figure out how to word that lol

[@thomasperkins2990]

WELCOME BACK SPARTAN LEGION!!!!!! THEY HAVE RISEN FROM THE ASHES!!!

[@timothysmith869]

Thomas Perkins back from where,.... they never left!

[@dayvonsavage315]

Timothy Smith They definitely did. You must not know a lot about NSU. They dominated the MEAC in the early 2000s. They had there numbers reduced tremendously after the 2010 season.

[@liquidlightz]

Dayvon Savage Like he said they never left. Numbers never meant anything to the Legion. The quality never left. And I'm a Legion alum who marched with a 96 piece band and 150 piece band. But get what you're saying though.

[@marvinmillbrook8737]

see they playing west side story in case nobody knew

[@legion2004]

Risen from lack of funds. LOL! Another HBCU that took away funds from the music programs.

[@mikedaflexta]

Damn Norfolk, Leave a little for Southern to eat later. NSU with the decisive victory. Yall held it down for the Northeast.

[@sneakypete139]

mikedaflexta you crazy as fuck!!!!

[@1970brwr]

mikedaflexta i went to southern u only thing i can tell you i seen 2009 legion playing howard because my nephew play saxophone for them i would not take that legion lightly at all

[@javonjohnson6189]

I'm a Asu alumni and all I can say is damn!!!!! Nsu they sound great and my school too

[@deepblackaquatics9694]

derek brewer bruh 09 legion was going for blood all season lol

[@deepblackaquatics9694]

derek brewer I saw their gym battle against A&T in Greensboro live. Damn shame what they did to that dog

[@TheCallmeCallisto]

Norfolk putting out for their size! I'm loving it! Take me back to the 2009 Honda Norfolk!

[@lwbhslgy6722]

Nsu only went to Honda 2007 and 2008 bro

[@callystarr]

So proud of ASU sound in the 2nd tune...#shedtear
I use to talk so much trash about ASU lol

[@deon7388]

Calvin Howard bruh I swear if I listened to that blindfolded, I would've never guessed it was them playing it

[@quinnsmith4896]

This was a great matchup.. 2 different styles, but both bands sound and did great here..awesome job

[@Deltravar1]

"Scared" was so clean!!! NSU LEGION's arrangements is unmatched in my opinion! There musicality is 100!!!

[@parishamilton99]

This year will belong to ASU and you could tell with their spring game performance🔥🔥🔥 But Norfolk ain't no joke!!!

Puncho DaGreat I'm also from Virginia right next door to Norfolk State I love you guys the same way I love Southern University I got to give credit y'all brought that heat from Virginia I love it

[@mikedaflexta]

After listening again and with more focus, while NSU was absolutely amazing, I am rather impressed by ASU. That second song was glass and it was strong, full, and clear. I see a way better band than last year.

[@Rod3820]

Asu's congratulations was too groovy!!

[@Bandcentral]

NSU won the Stands and They Definitely Won The Field Show There Also Miles Field Show camed in 2nd

[@emmettgalloway9355]

[@haroldmorning8996]

I agree 07 on there way to 09 sound.

[@ariesmade90]

That's Congratulations do sound good.

[@garykemp7441]

Quinton Knight you can say that again. ASU must have a new arranger because this arrangement has more balance through the whole song.

[@bjwbjw7777]

Excellent job NSU!!!! Continue to build on this energy

[@marcuspalmer7292]

Great short battle but Norfolk is blowing!!!!

[@WaveManMike]

Good job to both bands..two different styles and two bands who never get to see each other. I wish these types of matchups happen more often!!! Would love to see JSU vs NCAT, Grambling vs FAMU, and Alcorn vs NCCU

[@THETOPMAN97]

You gonna see fam vs gram this football season coming up

[@therealdeal2365]

NSU took this all the way 🙌 I get tired of hearing bands play to mf loud and out of tone the mf Melos and trumpets and the rest of the instruments trying to blow over each other NSU gots this hands down they sound just right and they making the city look good to 😎🤘

[@TheTrumpetBoy]

[@highqutv880]

Heeeeeeelllllllllllllllll nnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooo

[@7xsystem369]

HighQu TV hell yesss😂

[@brianking3845]

Hracek exactly 😂😂fools done lost they mind😂💀

[@7xsystem369]

Brian King he must forgot that Norfolk is in the north. They ain't gonna travel to the south every game 😂

[@roylancaster8504]

Norfolk blew ASU back home on the first song

[@JazmineFazoolz]

Yup nsu with the W.

[@cuhleebfilms4559]

Whats the name of nsu first song

[@TomazHilton]

Be Scared, NSU Original

[@queh.8183]

Hell ya state 🙌🏾

[@MRRAY84]

Nice battle... Both bands sound great... I like NSU, but that ASU sound wins me over this time... great battle though.

[@misterdee1117]

Why is a band half the size keeping close with the volume and with a much better sound quality. They get W on that alone. I wouldn't say ASU was blown out though, because they have a little more power

[@TomazHilton]

NSU would sound more powerful if the Euphs were playing as one whole section. they are playing as a section but not at the same intensity. its all in the arrangement.

[@mybro727]

Why y’all keep telling yourselves that lie? They are not half ASU size and they didn’t have a much better sound quality, they have a difference sound and style of play. However ASU had a powerful and projected sound for their size played w/ clarity. Bama State was not that large at all this year themselves. These bands are about the same size. Y’all are so delusional lol

[@terrancesneed3757]

I was there in person and the volume nsu produced had me shook. I was not expecting so much sound from them. Asu wasn't much bigger than NSU. This battle was good. I would give NSU the 1st round and ASU the 2nd.

[@jasonmeredith1580]

mybro727 The Legion marched about 113 instruments that day not counted percussion

[@terencejones2917]

Jason Meredith ASU had 32 more instruments than Norfolk, yet Norkfolk was just as strong if not more than ASUS! JUST MY OPINION!

[@hazzaustin5571]

Both sound good . Did bama state get smaller? Wow

[@gaboi]

We're about the same size from last year

[@hazzaustin5571]

clewis0101 oh ok .. i see

[@gaboi]

+haz Austin but thanks for the compliment!

[@hazzaustin5571]

clewis0101 no problem. Ill say this bama state should keep this momentum. Idk what kind of practice they was having but this edition already sounds way better then last season and tubas was fire yesterday

[@MusicManC]

Being out there felt just as good as this playback good job both bands but NSU sounds great... Yup!

[@kristianruffin3782]

good battle

[@SAC010]

Y’all know damn well Norfolk WAS LIT & half the size! Take your L ASU 😂

[@notyamama5819]

Omg i forgot how much i love the legionn

[@xavierm428]

Just for me asu's congratulations is on point but leave wild thoughts too aamu tho lol 😆😆

[@gaboi]

why? A&M's "Wild Thoughts" is dry

[@xavierm428]

clewis0101 to me listening to the actual song and comparong it to there version IMO less is more, now what they did with "congratulations" that has got the right vibe to it....

[@georgenance3342]

Norfolk is like half the size of Bama. Like wtf man. That was so good. The Legion is on point this year

[@mybro727]

George Nance lol. Wrong they’re about the same size NSU just has more tubas.

[@CLW711]

Was Norfolk State always that big 😲😲😲🔥

[@AKINGSKYD]

Cuzzo C Big ? Well depends. In the 90s they were about this size. But in the early 2000's they were even bigger. 2009 was probably their most recent biggest year

[@Bandcentral]

Christian Legrand no not at all but this year they are close to 2009 size they did some heavy recruiting

[@ComiClazzical]

1:34

[@esh8973]

#Behold

[@1898drebatton]

ASU

[@yazmyncarter1603]

They killed it y'all need to listen to their fake love it's hard:O:O:O

[@georgenance3342]

Bama how ya'll let THem crank on yall like that. They smaller than you. They sound bigger than you. I love it I love it love it...Both bands a magnificent

[@gaboi]

both bands are about the same size... one just has more trumpets SMH...nice reach though

[@Bandcentral]

MeAgainstTheWorld there wasn’t no reach😂😂😂😂

[@BandRaw]

No way bro lol we were no where near their size

[@taylormaid6721]

2:44 DEM NUTZ

[@taylormaid6721]

2:24 don't look left, your sousa will melt

[@Bandcentral]

Alabama State definitely took the L on this Day

[@gaboi]

where??? 😂

[@dosequis6397]

MeAgainstTheWorld in this video 😂😂😂😂

[@gaboi]

+Dos Equis Norfolk fans are the ONLY ones who think that

[@Bandcentral]

MeAgainstTheWorld nah asu definitely took the L😂😂😂😂😂

[@gaboi]

+the best in the world WORLD opinions are like assholes. Both bands sounded good. ASU's song selection was waaaaay better. By the way, unlike you I have no ties to either school. it's ok fam

[@traviscook9225]

Kudos to Both band and I cant judge a battle on two songs. But the MEAC better beware of this year's Spartan Legion. Alabama state is still a force in the SWAC.

[@ccharlie05]

Swac took L on this one. Norfolk was bringing it!!

[@gaboi]

both were bringing... I guess it's about preference

[@sneakypete139]

Charlie Harris can't agree. Both these bands doing their thang. Good battle. This a draw!!!

[@ccharlie05]

+Carl Randolph ehhh let me look at it again. I do like that Post Malone song ASU played

[@Bandcentral]

Charlie Harris I can’t wait Definitely took the battle

[@tyedagod6302]

Asu mellos was getting drowned bad!

[@ljsmixbox44]

ASU 🏆

[@marcuspalmer7292]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 @ 5:30

[@JustinHeideman]

Norfolk was amazing, but I'm givin it to ASU simply by their diverse song selection. All Norfolk played was hype songs. There was different feelings of music on ASU's side and that ultimately beat Norfolk. No disrespect to Norfolk, they sound absolutely amazing (especially those trumpets 🎺😭) but ASU had a more diverse song selection

[@TomazHilton]

NSU played the same Type of Songs ASU played, R&B/pop (Wild Thoughts= I Cant Wait) & Rap (Congratulations=Be Scared) . the only Difference is that NSU played a Original Composition (Be Scared)

[@JustinHeideman]

yes, same genre, it just doesn't sound like the same genre

[@lazurusredd8682]

If you're going by song selection alone that's not thinking like a true musician

[@JamesThompson-sl3nh]

niggas always say the smaller band sound crisps..when we all know ASU killed the on all phases

[@Tjevdevs]

ASU won this

[@GPrice-mg8mi]

If NSU ever gets some Tubas! The only weakness I hear in this band right now!

[@TomazHilton]

i dont see a weakness in the tubas, Yes they are not Loud, but they are very technical and will always carry the BASEline.

[@WaveManMike]

MEAC > SWAC

[@sandalpumper1023]

Both bands are INCREDIBLE!!!...but ASU horn harmonies edge out Norfolk State.

[@mRgEniUs39631]

Lordt! How many times is Alabama St. gon' die!?!?! They've been getting killed. GREAT JOB NORFOLK!!! Amazing sound!

[@gaboi]

you're entitled to your own opinion even if it's.... nevermind lol

[@sneakypete139]

mRgEniUs who killed them. They definitely didn't die here. This was a draw. Both bands did great.
