VANITY: America's most underrated, and unknown, College fight song
The University of Oklahoma ^ | 10-2-2018 | Vanity

Posted on 10/02/2018 6:45:50 AM PDT by OKSooner

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.

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.

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?
