If anything it rips off of the Bible.
The core of the story is centered around Adama leading a rag tag fugitive fleet to the egendary earth. Much like Moses led the rag tag Hebrews away from the tyrrany of the Egyptians toward the promised land.
Kobol was based off of Egypt, and the colonial culture is based on the ancient greeks.
NONE of those elements were in Star Wars.
I don't think Lucas paid much attention to the show, he just saw the Cylons and the space dog fighting and based his conclusions upon that.
