Our interns salute cheerleaders on this another Hump Day special. The college basketball season’s tip-off was this week and there is no better way to get you ready for said season then to look at some beautiful college cheerleaders, and our interns at The Sports Union deliver some of the best looking in the “business.”

And for those who say being a cheerleader is not hard work, we disagree:

Cheerleaders are some of the toughest individuals in college athletics.

OK, all joking aside … if the UCLA hoops team looks half as good as their cheerleaders, then we can crown them National Champs right now.

Then, there is the team across town that claims: “The World Famous Song Girls”

I think UCLA has it right … it is better to be good-looking then “World Famous.”

Syracuse: Didn’t they just get beat by a division 12 team?  Cheerleaders still look top-notch!

We always wondered why Dwyane Wade went to Marquette … now, we know.

Do the lean-ah-lean.

No people, that isn’t a good looking girl from Ohio State.  That is Oklahoma State!  Search continues for a good looking girl from Ohio.

Those cheer outfits are camouflaged … We are not even seeing them.

Ring a round the posey, pocket full of … what the?

This is an interesting chair.

Just cute.

Is this Yale or BYU?  Does it matter?

Is that the sprinkler?

The Irish Catholic girl … ah, yes!

Not going to lie … kind of awkward looking.

What the hell is she doing?

Raise your hand if you wish this would end?  OK, OK, you only had to raise one!

Bowling Green?  First ever entry into Hump Day.  Your parents must be soooooo proud.

Does Florida have the best looking cheerleaders in the country? or UCLA?

Or South Florida?

Ah, the devils!
