	Best name on this quiz? Obviously the Fightin' Camels.

	@jeffthepardoner: Great nickname, no doubt, but UC Santa Cruz isn't Division I.

	funny how your example doesn't work for Creighton.

	Too bad Hofstra changed their name to the Pride in 2004. I checked to see if Flying Dutchmen was a bonus. Also, Creighton spells it as Bluejays, one word.

	UL-Lafayette, not Layfayette

	Noisewater:	Mar 14th, 2011 at 06:24 GMT		2 points
	Can I appeal for the inclusion of the Hofstra Flying Dutchmen as a bonus answer? -- greatest nickname to have gotten dropped by the lousy school administration?

	Why does the basketball quiz have the Chicago Bears logo?

	Is Blue Hose a typo? That is a crazy mascot.

	That's no typo. They really are the Blue Hose. My favorite name is still the Thundering Herd.

	@guyinthecorner The Blue Hens are there, as a bonus, as they are the only 3-word team in NCAA Div I, the Fightin' Blue Hens. Each of these names is the official name that the NCAA recognizes them under, not things that people call them. Also, Elon was the Fightin' Christians before the moved up to Div I and became the Phoenix.

	Auburn's battle cry is War Eagle, but they are never called the War Eagles.

	Koltrane:	Mar 14th, 2011 at 12:15 GMT		3 points
	Funny how most are color related. Either that or "Fighting". I still love that most oxymoronic of mascots, the Demon Deacon. Oh, and Ramblin' Wreck has never been used to refer to the basketball team at GT. It's a nickname for the students as well as the old Ford that drives onto the field.

	Blue Hose isn't any more ridiculous than Red Sox. What is ridiculous is their basketball team.

	The Hawaii men's basketball team is still the Rainbow Warriors. Only the football, golf and volleyball teams dropped the "Rainbow".

	It's annoying when most of the conference teams are in alpha order, but a couple aren't--SWAC, C-USA, Ivy League.

	Purple Eagles? They should be ashamed of themselves.

	qifblackbeard:	Mar 15th, 2011 at 00:17 GMT		1 point
	All I did was type Golden and then a random word. I got quite a few

	koopa08:	Mar 15th, 2011 at 02:06 GMT		-4 points
	Although Hawaii allows its teams to choose their name (Rainbows, Rainbow Warriors and Warriors), the basketball team goes by just Warriors

	TheLastWaltz:	Mar 15th, 2011 at 02:23 GMT		-2 points
	I got all the answers, and the quiz ended without the menu popping up. the clock stopped, but nothing else happened. I've never had this happen before. also, Rainbow Wahine should count for Hawaii.

	@Hungover: Hey, don't knock the Presbyterian Blue Hose. For a smaller school with a team that is relatively new to division 1, their record of 13-18 this year wasn't so bad. Plenty of other "established" programs did a lot worse.
