‘Boomer Sooner, You Traitor’: Oklahoma Fan Heckles Lincoln Riley After USC Loss To Oregon

It’s been a tumultuous season for the Trojans and Lincoln Riley in Southern California, nearly two years since he departed the Sooners in November 2021.

A 6-0 start has turned into a nightmare with four losses in the last five games, even with the returning Heisman winner, and next is a matchup with in-state rival UCLA to end the regular season.

On Saturday, USC lost to Oregon 36-27, a score that looks closer than how the game was actually played thanks to Caleb Williams’ hero ball in the fourth quarter. A failed two-point conversion doomed the Trojans.

Whether OU fans admit it publicly or not, seeing the Trojans lose kind of brings them joy. As Lincoln Riley was walking to the tunnel postgame in Eugene, Oregon, one Sooner fan in attendance voiced her opinion loud and clear.

“Boomer Sooner, you traitor!” Check out the video below on X/Twitter.

Lincoln Riley definitely heard the passionate OU fan because he responded to her and appeared to say “You got it, sweetheart.”

Despite the success of the team in Norman this season, leaving in the dead of night, taking Caleb Williams and several coaches with him to Southern California still leaves a sour taste in Sooners fans’ mouths.
