Read description please. Yes, Four universities have "Stand up and Cheer" as their fight song. The first version (with key change) is from Ohio. Note that in the lyric "And we are bound to win this game;" can be replaced by "And we are bound to win the fray;" just like the lyrics of Western KY. Western Kentucky's version is very similar to Ohio's version. Second version belongs to Montana State. The music is soft, so turn up the volume a bit. SE Missouri St.'s version is untitled, officially. RECENT NEWS: Another school has this song, but they choose to not give an official title to it.
