The Peacocks Crush the Penguins

Is any good sports fan not going to catch the University of California-Santa Cruz Banana Slugs play against the Claim Jumpers of Columbia College-Hollywood. Or how about the Cotton Blossoms of the University of Arkansas-Monticello up against the Dirtbags of California State University- Long Beach. These are but a few of the unusual college nicknames. Some of the others are the Black Flys,(Gee I wonder what state they are from) College of the Atlantic, the Black Squirrles Haverford College, the Catamounts of University of Vermont and Western Carolina University, the Cobbers of Concordia College, the Dust Devils (Named after a small hand held vacume cleaner) of Texas A&M International University, Geoducks --- (pronounced GOO-ee-ducks, not JEE-oh-ducks) of Evergreen State College, the Humpback Whales of University of Alaska-Southeast, and of course the Lemmings of Bryant & Stratton College Cleveland Campus who by the way, were all killed because they followed a near by colleges over a cliff.
