	Texas Tech RED Raiders. Central Florida GOLDEN Knights. Presbyterian BLUE Hose. To name the three I noticed.

	Texas Tech is on the quiz and each time I test it, Texas Tech works. Central Florida dropped the word "golden" from their nickname in 2007. Presbyterian is not scheduled to become a reclassified as a Division I school until 2014-2015.

	Huh, I don't know why Texas Tech didn't work for me then cause it does now. My apologies about UCF I knew that they dropped it I just forgot. And I had no idea Presbyterian wasn't D-I. I know their basketball team has played several DI schools recently (Florida being one) and I'm fairly certain the opened Clemson's football season this year. So I figured they must at least D-I. Again, my apologies. Good quiz.

	Great quiz - I got them all except "Yellow" and that deserves a facepalm.

	Presbyterian is in Division I now. They play in the Big South Conference http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/team/_/id/2506/presbyterian-blue-hose

	Is Middle Tennessee State on here for blue? I tried entering it and didn't get anything. Wanted to know if I misspelled it or not.

	Actually, Presbyterian is a provisional D-1 member right now. They just can't compete in the tournament yet. It's an NCAA rule that was designed to prevent teams from moving up (or down) every other year to compete for championships. If you switch divisions, you can't compete for a title for a few years (I forget the number). However, teams who play against them get to count the win in their record as a D-1 opponent.

	University of Central Arkansas Purple Bears

	TomGarrett:	Jan 15th, 2012 at 06:26 GMT	1 point
	Isn't Furman the "Purple Paladins?"

	Cecispanda:	Jan 15th, 2012 at 15:38 GMT	2 points
	I'm pretty sure UCA is just the Bears now, though people do refer to them as Purple Bears, it's like you hear people call K-state the Purple Cats, but that's not their name. I don't know about Furman though.

	Maphead:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 19:37 GMT	2 points
	Furman is just the Paladins officially, although many call them the Purple Paladins.

	MTSU is a common abbreviation for Middle Tennessee State - please accept.

	Phreekie:	Feb 20th, 2012 at 02:34 GMT	2 points
	Middle Tennessee State is one the quiz. Each time I test it the college works. Same thing with Kent State.

	Phreekie:	Feb 20th, 2012 at 02:44 GMT	2 points
	Boston College is just the Eagles. They do not use the word golden in their official nickname. UCA is just the Bears, they do not use purple in their official nickname. Like ClintT13 said, Presbyterian is not a full D-I school yet so they were not included. Furman is just the Paladins. Middle Tennessee State is actually abbreviated to Middle Tennessee St on the quiz so they should work. MTSU has now been added for them as an acceptable answer as well.
