I can't think of any other school that would include another school in their often played fight song, even against teams not named LSU. I think this is fricking stupid.
Bama includes Georgia Tech (and maybe one other school) in their fight song - leftovers from the days when Tech was in the SEC.

UGA's fight song includes "and to hell with Georgia Tech"

It isn't common, but it certainly isn't unheard of. That being said, OM will always be OM and no matter what the powers that be do, ban most versions of Dixie, ban the southern cross, get rid of Col Reb remove "the south will rise again" that attitude and specter will always be there. They may as well embrace it, or else they lose one of the best parts about SEC football - the tradition.

Also, UCLA's fight song specifically mentions USC.

“Sons of Westwood”

We are Sons of Westwood,
And we hail the Blue and Gold;
True to thee our hearts will be,
Our love will not grow old.

Bruins roam the hills of Westwood,
By the blue Pacific shore;
And when they chance to see a man from USC,
Ev’ry Bruin starts to roar.

U! (3 claps)
C! (3 claps)
L! (3 claps)
A! (3 claps)

U-C-L-A! Fight! Fight! Fight!
