"Boomer Sooner" is a "My Sweet Lord"-worthy ripoff of Yale's "Boola Boola". Which might have become obvious if we hadn't let Puke run away with the first half.

Boomer Sooner actually blends a ripoff of "Boola Boola" with a ripoff of "I'm a Tarheel Born."
Boola Boola, of course, was itself a Page/Plant worthy ripoff of a song composed by a pair of African American stage performers.

We're having a campus-wide discussion on race, since one of our twelve residential colleges (dorms with amenities such as libraries and theaters) is named for slaveholder and secessionist John C. Calhoun. This could add fuel to the fire!
