	fighting tigers?? this quiz is bogus

	FIGHTING TIGERS!?!? HAAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAA

	fordefr:	Mar 26th, 2010 at 08:25 GMT		7 points
	Not too difficult except for the random non-DI schools thrown in here. This is unoriginal though, and LSU is definitely just the tigers. Get it right before you put it in a quiz.

	Technically, the creator of the quiz is right about LSU's nickname. They're the Fighting Tigers, although no one calls them that. But I have to say this has been done many many times before.

	http://www.lsusports.net/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=5200&ATCLID=177310 There's the link if you don't believe me.

	As others have said, it's been done before, but this is a good enough variation on that theme. I guess if Fighting Tigers is technically corrdct then leave it, but what about accepting Moccasins (instead of just Mocs) for UTC?

	"Tigers" ought, at the very least be an acceptable answer. And why so formal for LSU, who are never called the "Fighting Tigers" in just about any context, but then have Tennessee listed as the "Vols," when they are much more frequently called by the more formal "Volunteers"?

	"Tigers" should be accepted for LSU

	GeoExpert:	Mar 26th, 2010 at 22:33 GMT		2 points
	Flaws in this quiz: 1) The UAA teams in there just probably threw everyone off. 2)The format is terrible! Make the table size the the default 9 font, and maybe delete the extra column. 3) Not Original. 4) This is not the 'Ultimate' Nicknames quiz. If you want ultimate, try to stack 200 in one quiz. 4) Too much time. I suggest taking off 5-7 minutes.

	At least if you're going to through the UAA teams include Brandeis! Go Judges!

	Maryland is in the ACC u dumbass

	fuzzy510:	Mar 27th, 2010 at 07:53 GMT		2 points
	There's no reason to put the cities for most of these schools. Nobody sees "Illinois" and wonders if you're talking about the Big Ten school in Champaign or the Horizon League school in Chicago that ONLY goes by Illinois-Chicago.

	fuzzy510:	Mar 27th, 2010 at 07:55 GMT		2 points
	Also, if you're going with basketball conferences (which you clearly are if you have VCU listed at all), Notre Dame should be in the Big East, and Army and Navy should be in the Patriot League.

	AJAX22:	Mar 27th, 2010 at 15:45 GMT		1 point
	Providence College Friars are in the Big East. Where are they?

	horseydeucey:	Mar 27th, 2010 at 16:54 GMT		1 point
	Ditto, Maryland is most definitely in the ACC. Not to upset the apple cart, but it is a bit of an insult to think that MD is in the Big East. Too much ACC history to get that one wrong.

	Please accept "Bears" for Cal. While "Golden Bears" is the correct full name, Cal Bears is common enough that it's included in the url for the official cal website (calbears.com)

	cadets should also be acceptable for Army. They are one of a few schools that actually uses 2 nicknames
