	Sorry, but the Big East was basketball FIRST, and it shouldn't be asking too much of you to know some basic college basketball. If you want to criticize the quiz, maybe it should be because the MAC or other conferences were left out.

	big east is right now one of the best conferences in basketball and this is "clearly" a basketball quiz, hence villanova, georgetown.....

	Fun quiz. Can't believe I got them all. I'm not even a big college sports fan. Then again, maybe I am and I don't know it, lol.

	Since Notre Dame doesn't play football in the Big East, they should be clearly left out of the list by MJ's logic.

	johnlk:	Feb 18th, 2009 at 00:55 GMT	9 points
	The schools seem listed in odd ways. For Pac 10, for instance, it should just say Arizona, Arizona State, California, Oregon, Oregon State, Stanford, UCLA, USC, Washington, Washington State rather than the longer names. It's weird to see North Carolina referred to as "UNC at Chapel Hill" - in sports contexts it's always just "North Carolina".

	Yeah they took the official names I guess - more often seen in academics than athletics.

	dang got 67 the damn big east killed me every other conference i got in like 2 minutes

	Babomomebeo:	Apr 2nd, 2009 at 20:28 GMT	-2 points
	Whenever I didn't know one i just added the word "golden" to the name since it worked for UCLA, Marquette and Minnesota.

	mininimi:	Apr 8th, 2009 at 15:50 GMT	4 points
	uh mark, their is no golden in UCLA's name. Got all 73

	depaul and mississippi made me pause...I love how there's a wildcat in every major bcs conference except the acc.

	jeter97:	May 26th, 2009 at 02:13 GMT	-3 points
	got all 73!

	JWD5:	Jun 5th, 2009 at 15:42 GMT	-1 points
	all 73

	Zudnic:	Jun 24th, 2009 at 00:16 GMT	2 points
	the Big East was tough because unlike the other conferences a lot of those schools are basketball-only. It was also tough that it forced the colors in there - I kept thinking of Cal as the Bears, but it'd only accept Golden Bears. Really enjoyed this one.

	C:	Jul 4th, 2009 at 16:47 GMT	2 points
	all 73 with 6:19 left to spare. Pac 10 was the hardest for me, because I don't particularly care for that conference.

	urkondor:	Jul 22nd, 2009 at 21:29 GMT	1 point
	@Esteban, just like every March, huh? @johnlk, yeah, it's "North Carolina" or just "Carolina" everywhere outside of the state, but if you're ever in Chapel Hill they will make you spell that sucker out all the way to the end.

	MattyD:	Aug 19th, 2009 at 03:34 GMT	2 points
	all 73 with 6:27 to spare, vandy was my last one, I went in order. If you're in chapel hill we won't make you spell it out. It's just identified that way cause there are 12 other UNC's throughout the state

	The Big East was fairly tricky since I'm more of a College Football guy and the Big East is a Basketball conference. Still got all 73 though. Fun quiz!

	cavsfan:	Nov 2nd, 2009 at 05:07 GMT	2 points
	great quiz I would have just loved to seen the MAC and the WAC included I know there not quite as big but they both play football and basketball so no reason why they shouldnt get respect. Great quiz missed one should have remembered the hoyas.

	Firemarsh:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 07:30 GMT	-3 points
	@ MattyD: I am pretty sure NC is not the only university system to have >10 schools. Wisconsin has 26 schools go by University of Wisconsin-xxxxxx. Illinois has 3 U of I's and Michigan...the list goes on and on and on. Are you gonna call them UW-Madison, UI at Urbana-Champaign and UM-Ann Arbor in sports? Hell UC Berkeley is always called California in sports context even though there are 10 four-years UC campuses. Anyway this quiz is bizarre. Only the 6 BCS AQ conferences are listed here while all schools in those conferences, FBS or not, are included.

	It took Vols but not Terps?

	Big XII and Big 10 have the coolest names. The SEC has some lame names.

	Very fun quiz

	figured the basketball-only big east schools would be least guessed...good thing i'm at marquette for this one

	Damn you, St. John's. Damn you to hell. 72/73.

	TheWhiteLobster:	Mar 4th, 2010 at 01:14 GMT	2 points
	LSU's official nickname is "Fightin' Tigers." Of course, this is used just about as much as "Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College" is used.

	MattyD:	May 4th, 2010 at 06:43 GMT	-4 points
	all 73 with 7:16 to spare.

	Wow, it wasn't that long ago that ST. Johns was a powerhouse and everybody knew their name. Oh, wait they went south and changed their name.

	sobdennis:	Jun 16th, 2010 at 14:28 GMT	7 points
	I couldn't remember Marquette's new name because I still think of them as the Warriors. Interesting that you have Colorado in the Pac 10 while Nebraska is still in the Big 12.
