Oklahoma's second, and virtually unknown fight song, normally played after extra points, at the same time the Sooner Schooner makes a lap on the field.
TOPICS: Chit/Chat
KEYWORDS: fightsong; football; oklahomaok; vanity
    Composed by the bandleader Fred Waring in 1939 by the petitioned request of OU students and faculty... 
 If interested, read the story and give it a listen at the link. 
 It's a nice little tune. 
If I were Emperor, it would be THE fight song...

    I’d put a computer science degree from Bama over one from GT any day.

    Oklahoma's second, and virtually unknown fight song, normally played after extra points, at the same time the Sooner Schooner makes a lap on the field. Virtually unknown because it is so rarely played...

    Thank you. :)
OK will also get some play this coming Saturday, but why would one want to dwell on the implicitly obvious?

    That ain’t the Fight Song. That is the alma mater.
