Okay, I have a question. I grew up in NE Oklahoma, 30 miles from the Kansas border but have never known the answer. Probably because I never cared enough to ask, but wth does "Rock Chalk Jayhawk" mean?????? I am sick to death of hearing it, but now it is beginning to bug me because I don't know what it means. Help a sooner fan out?

Here you go...


The Rock Chalk Chant is perhaps the most distinctive cheer in all of college sports. Some have likened it to a Gregorian chant, but anyone who has been in Allen Fieldhouse and heard the chant start low, then build and roll over the crowd knows that it is much, much more.

The "Rock Chalk" chant dates to 1866, when it was adopted by the University Science Club. A chemistry professor, E.H.S. Bailey and some of his associates were returning to Lawrence from Wichita on a train. As the story goes, they passed the time by trying to create a rousing cheer. The sound of the train's wheels on the rails suggested a rhythm and a cadence to them. At first, the cheer was "Rah, Rah, Jayhawk, KU" repeated three times.

Even though KU didn't have a football team until four years later, KU students quickly took up the chant. Later, an English professor suggested "Rock Chalk," in place of "Rah, Rah" because it rhymed with Jayhawk and because it was symbolic of the limestone, also known as chalk rock, surrounding Mount Oread, the site of the Lawrence Campus. It became the official cheer of the University in 1897.

Teddy Roosevelt pronounced the Rock Chalk Chant the greatest college chant he'd ever heard. It was used by Kansas troops fighting in the Philippines in 1899, the Boxer Rebellion in China, and World War II. At the Olympic games in 1920, the King of Belgium asked for a typical American college yell. The assembled athletes agreed on KU's Rock Chalk and rendered it for His Majesty.

The words to the chant are simple. "Rock Chalk, Jayhawk, KU" repeated five times. The chant is special not because of the words, but because of the tone in which it is chanted and the distinctive cadence in which each verse is delivered. The only way to really appreciate the chant is to sit in Allen Fieldhouse before a Missouri game. But, if in need of a fix, the links below should recall the rocking rafters of Phog's place.

The Big 12 Championship is going to be a huge win for us this year if we can get it done, no matter if its a rematch with Mizzou or Kansas, who is likely to be undefeated.

The north has typically won the Big 12 championship in odd years.

Nebraska still scored 39 points. That means KU's defense sucks big time. We all know the Huskers team is bad; therefore, the 76 points.

No worries. OU will shut down their Rock Chalk Chant real quick in the Big 12 Champ game.

Bring it on!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, thanks for all your help fellow Sooners. Greatest chant of all time. Wow. I've taken a lot of heat over Boomer Sooner in my life time and I have proudly defended it. Nobody who chants Rock Chalk Jayhawk had ever make fun of Boomer Sooner again. Wow.

Well, I really am seeing an OU/Mizzou B12 champ game. The kansas/Mizzou matchup on the 24 is going to be a lot more lopsided than people think. If you match up the teams, Kansas' weaknesses are Mizzou's strengths.

Mizzou's BCS ratings will go skyhigh after beating KU & OU on supposedly neutral fields.:D

Exactly and we played A&M and they were in a struggle to beat them and OU rolled right over them. What was that game 19-11? I mean really KU may have gotten it together but they really still do not have the talent to keep up with a team as deep as OU. Look at LSU their star defensive player gets hurt and they still have to playem. OU is so deep that really we don't have to worry too much about it. Injuries this year have been relatively light for OU because of the depth and being able to rotate the players. KU maybe good but I think they stumble with Missouri and if not they get steamed rolled by OU. I'm sure Stoops would say that the odd year curse is a bunch of baloney.
