porthawk needs help! Can you get the assist by naming the schools represented by all the mascots shown below?

I *think* I've got them all, but why spoil your fun?

Rock Chalk!

Thanks for posting it HE. I've done trivia at a local bar on Tuesday nights. There's one "picture" round (out of the 5) and the card that HE posted is from a couple of weeks ago. When I heard college mascots was the category, I thought I would do better than I did.

Maybe Baby J is part of the NCAA investigation and he has been temporarily benched. Excessive cheering. NCAA only allows one Mascot on the floor at one time.. Will it ever cease with the NCAA?

Ok, here’s what I have...

1 Arizona St
2 Wisconsin
3 Georgia
4 Louisville
5 Wichita St
6 Duke
7 Nebraska
8 Central Florida

10 ??

Turns out I have no idea who 10 represents.

I’ve googled lions, (tigers), and bears......bearcats, wildcats......nada.

How quickly we forget.....I had to look up Nebraska and I thought Central Florida was the Army Black Knight, until I looked up to confirm.

#10 looks to me like it's a Bearcat, but I can't find a match anywhere. Maybe Cincinnati?

For #10, the clue is in the forehead.

Michigan Wolverines

I had all 10, but 8 was a toss up for a while with Army.


oh and #3 is Gonzaga

Wow! Did not catch the forehead. So that's why their helmets have stripes. :huh:

Upon further review, #3 is Uga, the Georgia mascot.

Good catch HE.

An awful lot like Spike from Gonzaga (see this link en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonzaga_Bulldogs )

But clearly it is UGA

Thanks, K, but full disclosure - Credit to WSG for the proper ID of Uga. ;)
