	Before the debate even begins, SMU is located in University Park, TX, an official inner suburb of Dallas, Texas.

	Would be cool to have one with all D-1 schools

	@razorz: I don't really care about having the debate, because I'm sure you're correct. But having just driven past the SMU campus over Thanksgiving break it's hard to imagine that it's in some place not called "Dallas". But I believe you. I actually was more skeptical about Penn State, which has always been in "State College" on sporcle quizzes before, but apparently that already limited geographical area includes within it "University Park" which houses the Penn St campus.

	@razorz, ambition et al. It seems to me the general answer is that many universities have post office designations that are not real cities and that leads to these confusions.

	I want to know how many people got Miami because they thought it (and the U of Miami) are in Miami. I typed it looking for an ironic bonus answer.

	The S.Carolina-Missouri matchup in the future might be interesting, lol.

	@Dirtybird: Can you honestly tell me you're laughing out loud at the idea two schools from cities of the same name will play each other? It's not funny. It's a coincidence. You must be one of those people who laughs hysterically at every joke, regardless of whether it's any good. I JUST FOUND A PENNY WITH LINCOLN'S HEAD ON IT IN LINCOLN, NEB! LOLZ!!!

	Ok how about chuckle then.

	Apparently Florida International University is in University Park, Florida.

	Isn't Penn State in State College, PA?

	Georgia vs. Mississippi St. is still the more amusing SEC matchup.

	Since UMass moved up to D-1, both it and Buffalo are located in a city called Amherst.
