"I Won't Back down", I believe is the perfect song to use as a motivator for a football team that the head coach could use in his pregame speech. Especially if he has a team that is undermanned at least on a paper and is a clear underdog, but strongly believes that his team is good enough to win this game. But he's got to get his players to believe that. And tell them, "that we're playing a great team today they're going to hit us hard and we're going to take some big shots and give up some plays and points. But if we stay together and stay united and do what we've been working on all year and been practicing, they won't beat us, because we're better than them."
I believe this would be a great song for a high school team that perhaps is having a cinderella season and hasn't won in a long time and they're playing a great team that wins a lot every year. And the same thing with a college football program and even an NFL team. And because this is Veterans Day how about taking it up to the battlefield and in combat. That lets say an Army Captain could use to tell him men and tell them that, "we might be undermanned and they may have more ammo, but we're better than the enemy and are better trained and if we stay together, we'll not only survive, but we'll win." I believe that is the message of Johnny Cash's "I Won't Back Down." That you can push him around and knock him around, but you can't knock him out, because he'll just keep coming at you.
