Postgame Singing of Alma Mater at Football
Another tradition started during the 2002 season by OSU Football Coach Les Miles and continued today by Mike Gundy is the post-game singing of the OSU alma mater. After every win at Boone Pickens Stadium, OSU players and coaches gather in front of the student section in the northwest corner of the stadium and sing the alma mater. All fans, students and non-students are encouraged to remain in the stands after OSU victories and join the Cowboys for the alma mater hymn. The Cowboys even sang the alma mater in Norman in 2002, following their upset win over the Oklahoma Sooners. Cowboy fans were seated in a corner of Owen Field, and when the final buzzer rang, with the score OSU 16 - OU 13, the team stood on the field in front of them and celebrated the victory with their loyal fans.
