Does anybody know the name of the classical music they played at the opening of the Skins game this past Sunday?

A weird choice of entrance song considering that the song is about how Fate/fortune/luck is this unfair force that can turn against you. I would think you'd want something more self deterministic in a football game. But what else would you expect from such horrible management. No detail too big to ignore.

At my college's games, O Fortuna plays either when we force a turnover or a fourth down. Makes more sense.

rd421, you da man, that's it. I see where you're coming from Elessar but I don't think it's played for the meaning, it's music that really gets your heart pumping and adrenaline flowing. Just my 2 cents

I know. I just like to turn anything that I can against Snyder and Co for running my beloved team into the ground. It's just me though. Bitter. Angry.
