Husky Stadium ignites new pregame fan tradition

For generations, the "Say Who, Say What" chant has resonated within Husky Stadium, a tradition born in the 1970s and led by players before each game. Now, Washington's football program is extending this legacy to its dedicated fanbase, inviting Husky Nation to participate. A recent social media campaign featuring notable alumni such as Lincoln Kennedy, Jake Locker, and Lawyer Milloy announced this exciting new pregame ritual.

The enhanced atmosphere will be amplified by an on-field emcee and the marching band, further solidifying Husky Stadium's status as "The Greatest Setting in College Football." This venue is celebrated for one of the nation's strongest home-field advantages, coupled with an impressive 21-4 record in its last 25 games on Montlake. Visiting teams historically navigated the same tunnels, experiencing the powerful echo of the chant, which became synonymous with iconic victories like the 34-29 win over No. 4 Miami in 2000.

With anticipation high for Jedd Fisch's third year, this new fan ritual is set to debut against a challenging home schedule. The Huskies will commence their season with the Apple Cup and subsequently host formidable Big Ten opponents including Minnesota, No. 22 Iowa, No. 18 Penn State, and No. 6 Indiana. This collaborative effort between the program and its faithful fans aims to amplify one of the most revered environments in college sports.
