FB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[Carthage Fan]

Well there's
BeVo-  Texas  Longhorn
Ralph E   Colorado Buffalo
Georgia has that Bulldog (name?)
Air Force  has the Falcon on one of the Cadets perch at every home game.

I actually debated between 4 and 7... I think NIU has a huskie out there too.

LSU used to have live Tiger

Not all the below are the actual mascot, but I think are or have been on the field:
Georgia's "Uga"  bulldog
Army "General Scott" mule
Navy "Bill"  goat
USC "Traveller" horse
Texas A&M "Reveille" collie
Baylor "Joy and Lady" bears
Yale "Handsome Dan" bulldog
Tennessee 'Smokey" hound
Arkansas "Tusk" boar
Colorado State "Cam" ram
Florida State "Renegade" horse

Isn't google a wonderful thing?  HA!

Clearly, PETA was not happy about it...

My intention wasn't to head this direction.  Honestly, I was just curious what the board could come up with.  Interesting and fun.

Heard a rumor that the Elmhurst QB is coming back for a 5th year.  Is it rumor or truth??  Was he out a year with an injury?

What about the Colorado Buffaloes??

What about the Colorado Buffaloes??

That is "Ralphie" the buffalo, or is it actually a bison?

Speaking of mascots, any of the Carthage faithful hearing any rumors of a mascot change in Kenosha?

I don't know if you remember what "Torchi" looked like during the football season, but now "Torchi" is buff and with spiked up yellow and orange hair I believe. I don't know if he was like that during football because I was playing, but it is pretty funny.

[Carthage Fan]

Torchi was buff during football season too.  I was referring to an entirely new team name and mascot.   Anyone hear anything?

Ralphie (see my post #14110) is an American Buffalo and a sacred animal on CU campus.
Torchi at Carthage
Chippy at North Central (of course this is NOT how NC plays  )
Victor E Bluejay  at Elmhurst
any others in the CCIW?
The Phoenix  at U of Chicago.

Boy, I hope not. Torchy is the funniest-looking live mascot in college sports, even funnier than the goofy mascots of Syracuse, Ohio State, and Nebraska. When a Carthage alumnus friend of mine pointed out at a Carthage basketball game that Torchy "looks like a giant walking turnip," I laughed so hard that I almost passed out. Heck, he really does look like a giant walking turnip.

Wheaton has filled a 2nd slot in their non-conference schedule for the 2010 and 2011 seasons.  They will be playing Albion again after a 2 year break.

So they now have UW-Platteville and Albion on the schedule, with one more slot to fill.

Hey quit breaking up the total nonsense off-season posts with actual CCIW football information!

That is what I was trying to find out.

Evergreen State, an NAIA school in Olympia, WA is nicknamed the Geoducks (Pronounced Gooey-ducks). A Geoduck is a giant clam. Check out this mascot.

That ain't right.

If IWU ever officially changes their name to the Green Weenies, this is the perfect mascot for them.
