Ever looked up the words to Texas's fight song?

quote:

Texas Fight, Texas Fight,
And it's goodbye to A&M.
Texas Fight, Texas Fight,
And we'll put over one more win.
Texas Fight, Texas Fight,
For it's Texas that we love best.
Hail, Hail, The gang's all here,
And it's good-bye to all the rest!
Yea Orange! Yea White!
Yea Longhorns! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Texas Fight! Texas Fight, Yea Texas Fight!
Texas Fight! Texas Fight, Yea Texas Fight!
The Eyes of Texas are upon you,
All the livelong day.
The Eyes of Texas are upon you,
You cannot get away.
Texas Fight, Texas Fight,
For it's Texas that we love best.
Hail, Hail, The gang's all here,
And it’s good-bye to all the rest!


quote:

Hullabaloo, Caneck, Caneck
Hullabaloo, Caneck, Caneck
Good bye to Texas University
So long to the orange and the white

Good luck to dear old Texas Aggies
They are the boys who show the real old fight
The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You
That is the song they sing so well
Sounds like Hell!
So goodbye to Texas University
We're gonna beat you all to

Chigaroogarem Chigaroogarem
Rough, Tough, real stuff Texas A&M
Saw varsity’s horns off
Saw varsity’s horns off
Saw varsity’s horns off

So, 1 of 20 lines in the Texas fight song mentions aggy, while 11 of 17 aggy lines mention Texas.

In literary terms, that would be a passing reference vs. a central theme.
