Big Ten (since 1887)
Colors: Cream and Crimson
Mascot: Hoosiers
Here’s a team that doesn’t do much of anything on the field, although they do fight for such classy items as the Old Brass Spittoon and the Old Oaken Bucket (against Michigan State and Purdue, respectively). They’ve got no personality or anything to set them apart them apart from the lovable losers. And they touch a big ol’ rock, just like the Clemson folks. And Lee Corso used to coach them. No wonder no one cares.
In fact, no one cares so much they can’t figure out what a Hoosier is. The best anyone can tell is it’s a folklore term. Equally, no excuses are made for the choice of Cream and Crimson.
