Ladies and gentleman of the Hokie Nation, the time has come. Our enemy is upon us, the wolf is howling at our door. We must stand together as sheepdogs and go forward into the fray together as one. One team, one town and one nation, the Hokie Nation. From the darkness a fire will rise and it's going to burn down Buckeye stadium. There are storm clouds forming above and a darkness rising on the ground. The Dark Hokies will rise up and defeat our opponent. There's a storm coming.... Better find you a basement. It's Time to Rise....

dark hokies?

Wielding Dork Magic?
I'm so happy this is a thing now.
10 legs every time you use it.
Excuse my ignorance, but what is this in reference to?
On one of the currently active threads, one of the guys was posting on his phone.
The auto spell completely mangled it.
We have a history of running with these memes, hence, pussy touchdowns and dork magic.

And the ensuing hilarity. It's this season's "pussy touchdowns."
100% of the fun, with fully half the crazy.
Here you go. Apply liberally, make sure you're fully dipped.
Can we be something other than sheepdogs? Is this the best image you can come up with to get people fired up?
Seriously Seth....you're better than this.....
Must be spending to much time with badmetaphorguy...
At first this doesn't seem approriate but,
From the American Kennel Club
"The Herding Group, ... All breeds share the fabulous ability to control the movement of other animals. A remarkable example is the low-set Corgi, perhaps one foot tall at the shoulders, that can drive a herd of cows many times its size to pasture by leaping and nipping at their heels."
The herding group also includes: "The workaholic of the dog world, the Border Collie is the world's premier sheep herder, prized for its intelligence, extraordinary instinct and working ability. Medium-sized and athletic, the breed controls stock with stalking movement and an intense gaze known as "eye."
Those are some good traits.
Personally, I fancy polar bears.
Need a trigger warning on this pic. Any Hoos lurking may be curled up in a fetal ball after seeing this. It's like Scott Stadium, Nov 26 2011 all over again.
There was a time long ago when sheepdogs were known as lunchpail carrying butt kickers.

Ask Wiley Coyote.
KaPow!!! I've always got a +1 for Sam the Sheep Dog.
Morning, Sam. Morning, Ralph.
Nice one.

How about something like
As we prepare to encounter the enemy, we stand united knowing their are other Hokies out there in the sea of garnett and grey. We are prepared to take on all challenges as we shake our collective keys and implore the Hokies to reach for greatness as our lungs ache and strain to rain down encouragement on the Hokies through the drone of those nuts (literally) in the Horseshoe make feeble attempts to drown us out. We will not be silenced, we will not be outdone, we care not for numbers, for there is no way to measure heart or desire of those there in person. We carry with us the dreams and asipirations of those left behind and stand united in the face of great odds. Like the 300 Spartans, we plan to come home with our sheilds or on them. There is no turning back now. Only onward and forward into the fray, because we plan not to live forever. We have prepared for this, we have trained for this, THIS is what Hokies are meant to do on the road. Orange and Marroon united in a collective force like a tidal wave building momentum ready to crash upon an unforgiving shore. Gameday will soon be upon us. Who's with me... LET'S GO....
From the top of section 22A - HOKIES!!!
Go! Go! Go! Go!
Airborne operations will always get a leg from me!
I've always been a fan of A Few Good Men:
"OSU, we live in a world that has end zones and those end zones need to be guarded by men like Bud. Who's gonna do it? The U? You, Mike London? Bud has a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Braxton Miller and curse the football Gods; you have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Braxton Millers injury, while tragic, probably saved his career and that the Bud Fosters existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, usually ends careers. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at Columbus frat parties you want Bud on that sideline, you need Bud on that sideline. We use words like Ut Prosim, Beamerball, and Blue Collar. We use then as the backbone of a life trying to defend something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of defense Bud provides and then questions the manner in which he provides it. I would rather you just said "thank you," and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest that you pick up a helmet and cover the post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to."
This is a movie that I need to watch. I've never seen the whole thing.
IF we need motivational videos...I choose this!

Hell, who needs motivation to win this one...
Oh my goodness I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!
Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room!
