Walking across campus after Matt Narode scored his first goal Tuesday night felt more like walking to Chelsea’s Stanford Bridge in West London rather than BU’s Bearcats Sports Complex.

‘Ole, Ole, Ole, Ole,’ the chant rang through the night, and then came a roar.

No, Graham Munro and his boys were not back at Tuesday night’s non-conference match; these chants came from the BU men’s soccer team’s new No. 1 supporters ‘ the Bearcat Hooligans.

‘We’re just a bunch of friends who threw together a bunch of chants,’ said BU junior and Bearcat Hooligan creator Erwin Seguia. ‘We have a stadium so we definitely wanted atmosphere. We want people getting behind a team that is trying to be nationally ranked.’

Earlier in the season, Seguia, a resident assistant in College-in-the-Woods and member of BU’s club soccer team, brought other RAs and some teammates together for the purpose of cheering on the. Others have joined the Hooligans’ ranks as well, including people who say their first soccer match was a Bearcats one.

The Hooligans, who sit to the right of the press box or behind the pep band, use chants to support BU and get under the other team’s skin. They also never sit down. Seguia started a Facebook group for the cause called ‘Bearcat Hooligans,’ complete with a list of chants. The group had 124 members as of yesterday night.

‘We love being here,’ said sophomore member Zach Raffa. ‘We just want more people to show up, we don’t want people sitting down. It’s supposed to be an intense atmosphere.’

The chants, which can border on vulgar, definitely make the atmosphere intense. But there are some, including men’s soccer coach Paul Marco, who feel the Hooligans unfortunately go too far sometimes.

‘I think that the fans are fantastic, I think the students coming to support us is fantastic,’ Marco said. ‘I just would kind of remind them that we’ve got little ones in the crowd, including my two. And we definitely appreciate the noise, but if we could be a little bit more ‘ gentle.’

Upon hearing the coach’s words and a warning from some administrators, the Hooligans promised to tone their language.

‘I understand completely, we’re all college kids,’ Seguia said. ‘We want to have fun, but we understand there are kids in the crowd, so I think we will rework our chants and make them a little more creative.’

The group went on to add that it was very sorry if they offended anyone, including Marco.

Assuming they are toned down, don’t expect the negative chants directed at other players to be stopped.

‘Part of the idea with this is to pick on the other team,’ Seguia said. ‘Cornell was here, they have Dana Flanders, that was an easy one. We’re just here to have fun. I love soccer, it’s a wonderful experience.’

But it’s not all negative chants. The Hooligans also have chants to support individual Bearcats, including Narode and Cameron Keith, BU’s leading scorer.

They also have general chants to fire up their favorite team, including ‘Bearcat Boys’ and ‘O When Our Boys Come Marching In.’

They also want everyone to join the group and support the Bearcats, especially noted top basketball fans, the BU Zoo.

‘We want them to come out,’ Seguia said. ‘If they’re going to get behind the basketball team they definitely have to get behind the [soccer] team.’

Those interested in joining the Bearcat Hooligans can check out their Facebook group or just sit with them on the right side of the bleachers.
