Georgetown 's fight song is rare among U.S. university fight songs for mentioning other colleges by name , generally rivals of Georgetown in the early to mid-20th century . Specifically , it mentions Yale University , Harvard University , Princeton University , College of the Holy Cross , the United States Naval Academy , and Cornell University , and mocks their fight songs . In the late 20th and early 21st century , the Hoyas only played Cornell and Holy Cross regularly in football , and many of these schools no longer used the fight songs that Georgetown 's song mocks . By 2015 , rowing was the only sport in which Georgetown athletes competed against all colleges named in the fight song . The song lacks references to Big East Conference rivals , such as Villanova
