Yeah, not a very intelligent chant.
They did a “warm the buses” chant during the TT game - that would suffice.

Overrated chant
- Thread starter cyclone101
- Start date
The only version of this I have approved was as a kid in the NCAA second round Duke was beating Iowa after they had a first round win over the mighty Cambell Camels. The Duke fans started chanting "Campbell's Better" when they were giving the hawks a beat down.
I think your post is funny but thee OverRated chant has been a staple at Hilton since the days of Barry Stevens ... Jeff Grayer who was there today. Way 2 go Cyclones

What I wish they would have chanted was "Just like football".
I think you always take the opportunity to rub that in. I know that the basketball players could care less, but it would certainly get under their fans skin.
It's not a chant we could have used often in the past, hope it's an option more in the future
P.S. Students did a good job showing up today. Make it even better on Tuesday. A hawk is a hawk, is a hawk. Hate them all and they must be destroyed

Students are dumber nowadays
There were no mobile phones with cameras back in the day to expose the stupidity of young adults. Every generation has its young idiots. Newer generations are actually getting more civilized in America.
I don’t think anyone gives a **** besides CF and apparently the announcers, whom I had on mute after the first thousand Trae Young mentions.
I always watch ISU games on mute and then turn up the volume when we go on a run.
Dumbest fan chant in sports. As a fan you are literally downgrading and disrespecting your own team and the effort they have put into a win. Beyond moronic.
Just like football is the chant you want here.
I’m fine with the chant as long as it means we’re beating ranked teams. Hope to hear it again on Tuesday.
Yeah, the only time i don't really mind 'overrated' is if you're the higher rated team and you're basically saying 'GTFO of here, you don't belong'. Even then, why diminish the win you just achieved?
While we're ******** about minor things after a win, what's with the audio in hilton lately? I feel like the intro has been thrown off with the bass turned way down. The arena is terrible at clapping along to anything when the beat isn't there due to low volume.
I don't know if I would go as far as calling it a staple, but I agree with the sentiment. I was a student in the mid-late 90s and it happened then. And has happened off and on over the last 20 years. Not the best chant but not that big of a deal.
I would rather have the students chanting that as opposed to yelling racial slurs or spitting on the opposing team.
