The hut hut hut that American football players, mainly the quarterback or the punter, does that because that makes the two teams get ready for the play. Even though it not always hut; it could be on first sound, which means the quarterback sets up and says any word and the play is live.
This answer is entirely true, however there is a little more to it than that. It seems simple enough, it's a simple word. The origin of the word "hut" in terms of being a command dates back to at least the Roman Centurions. They would give a command and then shout "hut" to communicate that the command was to be executed at that time. For example, a Roman Centurion may say, "Centurion, forward march - HUT!" The Centurion would normally continue to shout hut every 4 steps in order to keep the soldiers marching in a uniformed fashion. So now you know when a QB says "hut!", what he is really saying is, "execute."
The reason Hut is particularly well liked is because, well think of noise as being high frequency and low frequency. In a football stadium, the noise is high frequency. Hut, however, is low frequency, meaning it is easier to hear.

Where did the Football term HUT originate?
"Hut" comes from the word "hike." Hike is a verb meaning "to pull up or lift" something or "to raise [something] with a jerk." It refers to the act by the center of putting the ball into play by moving it quickly up off the ground and through his legs, either handing it directly to the quarterback or passing it to the quarterback (or some other player) who is some distance behind the line of scrimmage. The center "hikes" the ball to put it into play. Originally, the offensive team would line up and then a member of the offensive team would shout "Hike!" to signal the center to hike the ball and start the play. It very soon became obvious that the signal "Hike!" was a signal that was of equal benefit to the defensive team. Therefore, the offensive team member shouted "Hike!" several times. In the huddle the offensive players were told which "hike" was the "active" one, the one that started the play. Over the years, the word evolved, through a series of snorts and grunts, to become "Hut!" The word hut is just an easier and shorter word to say than hike. The word "snap" is a synonym for hike. The center snaps (or hikes) the ball. Originally, the position of the center was called the "snap." The other linemen were originally referred to as the "wing line." The names of those positions were "inside wing" (guard), "middle wing" (tackle), and "outside wing" (end). A backfielder who lined up outside an end was called a "flying wing."
