7/7/2006 11:57:04 AM

so our mascot wins the national championship, but isn't even on their list of choices for best costumed mascot. that's bullshit.

7/7/2006 11:59:25 AM

didnt the good ole tdub skew make that happen anyways

7/7/2006 12:13:46 PM

nah. i'm talking about the competition at the national cheerleading competition. mr. wuf won that with his performance. there was a video documenting it floating around for a while.

7/7/2006 12:15:14 PM

ahhhhh

7/7/2006 12:15:51 PM

michigans fight song is better, hands down. people are stupid

7/7/2006 12:27:49 PM

well, holy shit, I am suprised Rocky Top got #3... tis the greatest ever but didnt think it would get that many votes with all the "haters" out there

7/7/2006 12:51:39 PM

Penn State didn't make a single one of those lists?! Blasphemous.

[Edited on July 7, 2006 at 12:58 PM. Reason : Fans, logo, fight song, college town at the very least.]

7/7/2006 12:58:31 PM

Penn state always seems really good at everything, but not great at any one thing... but if there was a stadium poll that would have probably been in that one

7/7/2006 1:01:27 PM

Cmon, have you been to University Park? They have Charlottesville on that fuckin' list.

7/7/2006 3:32:55 PM

hahah that is amazing!

and Ohio State (and the Big Ten...best football conference in the NCAA) is well represented, rightfully so

7/7/2006 4:14:32 PM

ahaha, columbia, sc for best "college" town
what a joke

7/7/2006 4:16:11 PM

I'VE BEEN TO BOTH STATE COLLEGE AND COLUMBUS AND STATE COLLEGE IS A MUCH BETTER COLLEGE TOWN.....

COLUMBUS HAS TOO MANY SPOOKS

7/7/2006 4:57:19 PM

they have renegade on there (the horse)...but i see no mention of chief osceola...when he comes out riding renegade and throws the flaming spear into the field, that is AWESOME

7/7/2006 5:06:48 PM

i dont think they can consider him a mascot anymore

or else you are right

7/7/2006 5:14:36 PM

how did our mascot lose to a freakin Stanford Tree...

i always thought the carolina symbol was dumb looking... jus looks like a yankees rip-off to me

7/7/2006 5:18:15 PM

that tree is an alcoholic

7/7/2006 5:21:11 PM

How is Tulsa not in the mix for best nickname?

7/7/2006 6:07:19 PM

banana slugs sound like they taste good

7/7/2006 6:12:16 PM

19.5% UC Santa Cruz Banana Slugs

obvious choice


and I'd take Austin, TX

7/7/2006 6:27:30 PM

too bad we can't skew this one
