History
The Golden Brahman March is named after the original USF mascot.[1] In 1962, the university chose the Golden Brahman as it's mascot because of the state's history in cattle-raising.

In 2011, the university athletics department launched a campaign to encourage students, faculty, staff, and fans to memorize the song.
Lyrics
USF Bulls are we,
We hold our standard upright and free.
For Green and Gold we stand united.
Our beacon lighted and noble to see.
USF Bulls are we,
For USF we'll always be.
With all our might we fight the battle
Here and now, and we will win the victory!
(shout) S-O-U-T-H F-L-O-R-I-D-A
South Florida, South Florida
Go Bulls Go!
(Repeat)
