	what precisely makes these bizarre?

	Yeah I wouldn't call names that other schools or teams have as bizarre, like tigers, rams, 49ers, knights, braves, etc. Here's some that should be on the list though: Southern Illinois Salukis, Vermont Catamounts, Albany Great Danes, George Washington Colonials, Akron Zips, Maryland Terrapins, VTech Hokies, GTown Hoyas, etc. There's tons more, and many that are much more bizarre than some of the ones you have.

	I'm sorry, but some of these are as far from bizarre as you can get. Central Michigan is located in Mount Pleasant, MI which has parts of the Saginaw Chippewa Reservation and the university works directly with the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe to ensure that the name is always held in the highest esteem.

	How is Chippewa strange? @ budleno thank you for explaining. apparently, people can't tell it's an Indian tribe?!

	LaSalle might have the most appropriate name in all of sports.

	they're bizarre because they are well known schools, but not many people know their nicknames. The nicknames themselves aren't bizarre, they're just very hard nicknames on schools people know.
