Sure has been quiet
Apparently the August news cycle hasn't been that interesting to anyone else either. On the plus side college football season starts tonight as Steve Spurrier's Gamecocks (It was so tempiting just to say "Cocks" take on the Mississippi State Bulldogs (seriously, how many schools use a bulldog as their mascot? Is there anything less original).
I will now answer my own question, with help from Wikipedia (so don't blame me if it's wrong)
- McPherson College
- Mississippi St
- UGA (sic)
- Yale (who had it first of everyone)
- Gonzaga
- Fresno State
Honorable Mention (these schools have a bulldog, but go by another name)
- Georgetown (Hoyas)
- Western Illionis (Leathernecks - WTH?)
That's a lot... 4 of 119 Division 1-A schools have no creativity. But you knew that.
To continue making fun of Athens, they also have "Battle Hymn of the Republic" as a fight song (along with Colorado, Minnesota, and Penn... and I think Auburn, but I can't find documentation) AND they stole their logo from the Green Bay Packers. It's true, look it up.
If I was a Green Bay fan, I'd sue.
