@@CollegeKiddKelvin nothing happened they was in a empty stadium using the acoustics ... they sounded just like how they sounded with miles in person vs tnsee
This is the second time that I have listened to this battle....song selection can make you or break you...and if you don't execute the songs just right, you can be sure that the competition will smash you. I live in West Virginia, but I have been a "Jukebox" fan ever since I came across one of their RUclips videos years ago.....their power gets me everytime...I'm hooked
That said, I applaud Simmons for keeping the core sound intact.. We still sound like the ocean, just gotta get used to more complex arrangements like you said.. Next year with Size, it'll be better.. It'll be a lot of folks from Weezy coming to the H becuase of Simmons..
Yall listen, I'm a SU die hard since the 80's but i'm also a Brian Simmons fan. Give him time. Txsu will get there. We forget the more great bands we have in the swac, the better the battles are for the fans. I'm hopeful for Txsu to get there in time.
Who's fault is that, are you blaming Southern? If not, why waist time mentioning size. Southern has played against bands larger for many years and size never comes into the question.
Also Bandhead, you said your judgement would be based on song selection, but you immediately went right to skill level and volume, which you already knew was not there. Fourteen trumpets matched against approximately fifty trumpets is no matchup. By the way, I am not a TSU student or graduate. Rather, a Bandhead like yourself, just older and impartial.
As oldheads, we both know that it doesn't matter the size of the section brother. It's all about unison and execution. TXSU didn't execute the assignment. Look at Kentucky State this year. They have the about same numbers as TXSU and sound/execute their arrangements much better. TXSU will be alright. I'm looking forward to the progress and changes they make along the way.
Given that it is Brian Simmons first year at Texas Southern, I think Texas Southern did extremely well with their new arrangements and the increased skill level required, but be it known, Southern is not where it was during the Fall 2019. Southern did relatively nothing in 2020, and it shows. Give Brian Simmons time to increase the numbers, and you will see a match up for sure. It is the reason why Texas Southern hired him to bring up the band's ability to compete. In my opinion, none of the SWAC bans have peaked at this point. Jackson State showed a great improvement this past weekend at Alabama A &M. Wait until those two behemoths meet later in the season, Jackson State and Southern. Now this is the situation as I see it.
Hey a1 media had the best footage for this game bro...his audio is next level and he directly in the middle of both bands....i know u already reacted but just check him out when u get time
TSU is back woods I couldn't believe Brian left SU for this. Brian looked so out of sync, he knows he chose wrong. There dancers are wild and ratchet too. Brian has a job on his hands! Good luck
I get it, but as an ocean alum, this wasn't a fair Battle to judge.. arrangements, sound, volume, etc.. TxSU is half the size, and half of them are Crabs.. With a rebuilding band with potential judge them alone and see how they are progressing game by game, not versus other bands.. they not spanking NOBODY THIS YEAR.. Lololololol..
Love watching your content but I am still waiting to see the battle that I requested before the season started Please. Just would like to see your reaction.
The boombox classic gonna be dumb this year. Jackson state sounding wayyy better than they previously have over the last 2 years...this year's boom is a problem
Nobody expected TxSU to compete with Southern this season especially if you know everything the program has gone through to start the season. Watch out next years and beyond.
@@KBThaBandhead you keep bringing up ksu in every other post. How long have their directors been in place. Give Simmons time to recruit. They coming. He laying a foundation. He didn't inherited what Taylor inherited when he took over southern. I feel he the better arranger. Just wait until he get them bayou babies over there plus what he can get from texas
@@kedrickblacher2520 THANK U!!!lawwwd nigga be meat riding su harder thansu smh. U said that just right. Ksu didn't sound like that his 1st year there. Tbh they're literally JUST getting good like this year. But he gon see this year tho. Simmons told Taylor at the beginning of the game "you better do ALL u can do rn cuz u aint gon be able to do it nomo!" And he meant that shit
I think if Brian inherited a 200 piece band he would have more wiggle room. He didn’t tho so we gotta see what the recruiting looks like next year. Juke took this tho of course! Lol
@@rknighton28 gtfoh with that! boys was in front of SU band more than they own lol you didn’t see SU directors breaking they neck to walk across the field to go speak to them 🤷🏽♂️
Some people frame of mind. Simmons on some grown man shit. He supposed to have so much hate in his heart all a sudden. All of those kids his except the crabs. Come on now
I was in the stands on TSU side.... honey when Southern played, my mouth dropped!!! I will say that the TSU dancers did out dance the Dolls... but it was a lot of "that's cute" when TSU played...🤷🏽♀️
@@cutehorn1 I respect that point of view... I think the ladies usually do an amazing job over other dancers... but I scored a little different this time... love to both squads though...
Every run su played was muddy. I'm being honest. Lol yes they took the W, but the insults and the oohs and awes are straight su trolling. They're good yes, their runs are muddy. It happened. Deal with it. Lol
Kentucky State sounds/executes better than Txsu at the moment for a smaller band.. if you need something to compare to
In the battle against Miles recently...no they do not. They're about even, actually. KSU had PLENTY of wrong notes against Miles.
@@sordidC I’m not sure what happened recently but they sounded good against Tnsu a few weeks ago when this video came out
@@CollegeKiddKelvin nothing happened they was in a empty stadium using the acoustics ... they sounded just like how they sounded with miles in person vs tnsee
Ksu also has been working with their BD longer than txsu too

SU over there sounding like a Grammy Award winning album. 🏆
That YES LAWD IS EPIC..I LOVE IT
Me 2😂🤣💀
KB you keep commenting on how thin TXSU sound, don't forget they only have 14 trumpets and for that amount they need they props
What’s the last song su played?
The arrangements are there for TSU but their wind is not there for the complexity of arrangement.
what was the last song su band played
What’s the last song SU played ?
Southern was waiting on this too since Brian left! And it's like giving a middle school band Beethoven.
Please react to Southern playing “POWER” in the Zero Quarter VS Txsu
Yes that was dope
It's the same as any regular sport... put your players in the best position depending on their skill set. You have to know your players limitations.
No doubt.. they still bottom heavy.. and no stamina.. that's because of all the Crabs.. but you see/hear the direction so as an alum I'm encouraged
You have to react to that power by Southern they played it in the zero quarter it was the first song 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That said, I applaud Simmons for keeping the core sound intact.. We still sound like the ocean, just gotta get used to more complex arrangements like you said.. Next year with Size, it'll be better.. It'll be a lot of folks from Weezy coming to the H becuase of Simmons..
Big facts. I can't wait to see 💪🏾💪🏾
That last song from Southern gotta have ur face like this 😖😖😖. Killing 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yall listen, I'm a SU die hard since the 80's but i'm also a Brian Simmons fan. Give him time. Txsu will get there. We forget the more great bands we have in the swac, the better the battles are for the fans. I'm hopeful for Txsu to get there in time.
Fall next year will be a different story ! Ocean 🌊
I agree Kb. That stadium is originally a baseball stadium 🏟 for the Rangers. It’s not built for band battles particularly
That SONG SELECTION though
Its a numbers game, when Su woodwind section is larger than TXSU Trumpet and Mellophone combined what else can you expect for NOW
Who's fault is that, are you blaming Southern? If not, why waist time mentioning size. Southern has played against bands larger for many years and size never comes into the question.
I be lookn for a reason to not like the Juke and I never accomplish my mission
You have to react to Southern playing Power in the zero quarter.
TSU still got smoked but I do think the stadium played a big part in the effectiveness to hear either band because they both sound louder than that.
You got watch the Power in the Zero Quarter bro...its a must
man SU Power and Put ON ... Zero quarter
Bro, you got to watch the zero quarter..Southern "Power" 💪🏾💪🏾💯💯
On the real TXSU don't have the size yet.....I'm waiting on the BoomBox classic
The stadium is the old Texas rangers baseball field so that could be the case.
That's what I was thinking until SU played...

Aye u gotta react to dat POWER by Kevin Gates played by SU n da zero quarter it was da first song 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Su last song was straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥
What is it called
You gotta react to the zero quarter 🔥
Nah, I'm good.
After SU first song it was more like Fatality SHANGTU SUNG WINS!!!😆😆😆
Tsu need to clean it up a lil bit and about 80 more people and they cause problems
Hey a1 media had the best footage for this game bro...his audio is next level and he directly in the middle of both bands....i know u already reacted but just check him out when u get time
Correction Ocean Media has the best sounding clip period
Southern sound so close and TXSU sound so far away
I think the camera is not close to TXSU compare to SU...it maybe just me tho
The camera was at the 50 lmbo
React to power by southern 😯😯😯
🔥 Arrangements SU 💪
I expected txsu to come with more gimmicks towards southern.
Texas is the puppy trying to bark at Southern the big dog. Texas will grow into who they’re supposed to beat. But Southern took it.
That's a crazy analog... danggggg
@@KBThaBandhead love your truth and honesty
Do the whole zero quarter !!
this arena has crappy acoustics and makes for poor audio/sound recordings.
TSU is back woods I couldn't believe Brian left SU for this. Brian looked so out of sync, he knows he chose wrong. There dancers are wild and ratchet too. Brian has a job on his hands! Good luck
I wouldn't say all of that. He's the right man for the job.
He the right man for the job. He is very capable. And there is nothing wrong with the dancers. Could you make there line
React to zero quarter bro that when the battle turnt personal
React to power
I get it, but as an ocean alum, this wasn't a fair Battle to judge.. arrangements, sound, volume, etc.. TxSU is half the size, and half of them are Crabs.. With a rebuilding band with potential judge them alone and see how they are progressing game by game, not versus other bands.. they not spanking NOBODY THIS YEAR.. Lololololol..
They gave it to PV tho at the classic. But they're definitely not ready for SU or JSU yet.
@@KBThaBandhead true.. lol
Please react to noasb 2017
I completely hate the way they had the bands seated ! It doesn’t benefit them at all especially Txsu
Love watching your content but I am still waiting to see the battle that I requested before the season started Please. Just would like to see your reaction.
Idk why but I feel like Txsu did better and sounded better in 2019 against Southern
5-0
Read 'em and weep.
The boombox classic gonna be dumb this year. Jackson state sounding wayyy better than they previously have over the last 2 years...this year's boom is a problem

Facts it’s about to be epic 🔥🔥
That’s the point , Simmons and company didn’t have the time to recruit- watch fall 22
Come on Texas Southern only have 12 trumpets. Texas Southern tubas do need to give a little more.
Kentucky State has the same numbers or maybe less of TXSU and are killin' it. 👀
@@KBThaBandhead you keep bringing up ksu in every other post. How long have their directors been in place. Give Simmons time to recruit. They coming. He laying a foundation.

@@KBThaBandhead I wish u quit saying that. That is FALSE ksu has at LEAST 10-15 more trumpets than txsu. So the numbers are not the same
@@Khaidenkash9 Word. We will see this year tho
@@kedrickblacher2520 THANK U!!!lawwwd nigga be meat riding su harder thansu smh. U said that just right. Ksu didn't sound like that his 1st year there.

It’s the stadium 🏟 an the camera 🎥 man directly in front of southern.
Yeah it’s the camera mans fault 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 fuck outta here
He should of used a1 media footage he had the best for this game
@@Sagacious_X he ain’t lying 🤷🏽♂️
What about the messed up arrangements on tsu side🥴
@@issaiasespinoza7625 thank you 🙏🏽 homie
I swear you have the same looks on your face as I do when I hear things lol . Not gonna call it out cause it’s self explanatory .
I think if Brian inherited a 200 piece band he would have more wiggle room. He didn’t tho so we gotta see what the recruiting looks like next year. Juke took this tho of course! Lol
aye you gotta hit the craigmont fieldshow
Flawless Victory, bring on Jackson State !!!
Stadium trash
You gave SU. Damage. . . No . .That 3rd round TXSU took that, that was Beautiful. But everything else I can agree.
The arrangement was beautiful but the execution was not. They will get it together in the future, I'm sure.
Once Brian gets his kids in, it's going to be a shift in the SWAC
Nahhh southern always gonna reign supreme
Indeed . And the recruits are in like Matt flint
@@Sagacious_Xnah
Bruh same thing I was wondering why txsu directors friendly bobbing in front of SU dat shit look extra weak!! bruh y’all at war not a dam tailgate🤣
Because they were playing Brian Simmons' arrangements.
They’re all juke alumni🤷🏽♂️
@Kevin Stewart… Stop spreading false information! Southern didn’t play anything that Brian arranged. I’m a Juke so stop it with that foolishness.
@@rknighton28 gtfoh with that! boys was in front of SU band more than they own lol you didn’t see SU directors breaking they neck to walk across the field to go speak to them 🤷🏽♂️
Some people frame of mind. Simmons on some grown man shit. He supposed to have so much hate in his heart all a sudden. All of those kids his except the crabs. Come on now
I was in the stands on TSU side.... honey when Southern played, my mouth dropped!!! I will say that the TSU dancers did out dance the Dolls... but it was a lot of "that's cute" when TSU played...🤷🏽♀️
I disagree. The dolls killed it and the field show was top notch and on the professional level. But it’s all a matter of preference.
@@cutehorn1 I respect that point of view... I think the ladies usually do an amazing job over other dancers... but I scored a little different this time... love to both squads though...
Exactly the dolls danced their face off. Dolls for the win
That’s not how that battle went. I was at the game. Go find another other video of this battle
Both still need work southern sounds good but their articulation is sloppy at times and their runs need work still if your gonna do it execute it 💯
Every run su played was muddy. I'm being honest. Lol yes they took the W, but the insults and the oohs and awes are straight su trolling. They're good yes, their runs are muddy. It happened. Deal with it. Lol
