Baylor - Nothing
Colorado - Nothing
Iowa State - Nothing
Kansas - Nothing
Kansas State - Lynch Mob, OK eye
Missouri - Nothing
Nebraska - Blackshirts "X"
Oklahoma - Nothing
Oklahoma State - "O" with arms?
Texas - Hook 'em Horns
Texas Tech - Guns
Texas A&M - Nothing

Correct me if I'm wrong.  I think this means that the Big 12 is lame except for us.

A & M has 'Gig 'Em and Baylor has 'Sic 'Em.  I don't know what any of it means, and for a state that prides itself on football they all sure do have some gay traditions.

I think we should also adopt whatever Pullen throws up during his HS games.  Could get us some new fans.

OSU does a one-hand wave or something.  Looks just like "waving the wheat."

if the hook'em horns sign wasn't so overused, i think it'd be pretty sweet. but since every horn fan insists on doing it 500,000,000 times during the course of a game, it's not cool to me. the lynch mob sign is definitely the coolest hand sign in the Big 12.   :ksu:

Aggies do gig 'em, and still do a wrecking crew sign once in a while.

I can't believe that you forgot Baylor's Sic'em bear claw.  It's easily the most hilarious handsign in the conference.

the one thing i will give A&M props for--even though it's not a hand sign--is when they all link shoulder to shoulder and sway side-to-side during the fight song. pretty freaking awesome to see in person with the entire stadium doing it. i don't remember them waving arms, but it's been almost 7 years since my last trip to college station so i guess i could be forgetting something.

ku's waving the wheat doesn't count because Nebraska does it too after a touchdown, and Ok State does the one-arm Waving Song and a willie-esque rendition of "O-S-U". The blackshirts crossbones sign is pretty good, although nothing compared to the lynch mob sign in terms of originality and coolness.

and OU's arm thing is just plain gay.  :ku:

really?
I think that is a horrible fight song.

1. Its too slow
2. It mentions Texas. (seriously, is there a fanbase with a bigger inferiority comoplex than aTm?)

I dunno, waving the wheat and those other ones aren't really cool hand signs.  You don't walk around waving the wheat.

oh i don't really like the fight song...it's just awesome seeing the entire stadium appear as if its' moving from side to side because of 85,000 people swaying together. people who have been to an aTm game in college station will know what i'm talking about.

at least we don't dedicate our fight song to obsessing over another team.
