OT: Just how many D-I teams can you name?

Submitted by Wonk on August 11th, 2009 at 9:46 PM

Err, sorry, FBS... http://www.sporcle.com/games/fbscolleges.php I made it to 104. It's surprisingly difficult, especially since you know that you really do know them all. I forgot some glaringly obvious ones, though. Also, just how many teams does Louisiana need? Yeesh.

I always screw up on Arkansas State and Louisiana-Monroe as they're no longer called the Indians. EDIT: Wrong quiz, begin the negbang.

I got 80 and forgot Toledo, but I think I'm dealing with repressed emotions on that one.

Somehow when I did it, I forgot Clemson and Connecticut, yet I remembered UTEP in the waning seconds. Of course I'd remember UTEP! Why not?

I can get all of the nicknames, but not all of the college names. I only got 104 of the colleges.

103. Only BCS missed was Duke. Over half the MAC was embarrassing as I didn't realize that was the conference I was missing so many from until 30 seconds left. Then total mind blank. Only 107 on nicknames. Falcons just never passed my brain.

Auburn and Bowling Green were the misses from conferences I thought I had down cold (Big Ten and ACC, obvs, MAC and SEC from repeated exposure).

43 coaches is sad, but holy crap was it hard. It took me at least 15 seconds to come up with Mike Leach. It felt dirty not being able to think of his name. And I'll be damned how many attempts it took to spell that Douchebag Bielema's name right. Damn "i" no where near what I thought.

Not happy about that, it was kind of hard to remember all of the teams in 12 minutes.

88 and for some reason, I couldn't spell Cincinnati. I kept spelling it with two t's. UTEP was one of the first teams I jotted down. Weird.

Man I just got jailsexed, 72! I would have got more but i kept mispelling schools, then once I figured I couldnt remember, I would just move to another school. That happened about 6 or 7 times and really screwed me over.

I did that too - I realized I had somehow never spelled the word "Pittsburgh," and neglected the final "h." You should have seen me yelling at the screen: "Pitt is too a D-1 school you @#%&!" To make matters worse, it kept me from breaking 100. /sadface.
