College Football Anagrams Quiz
Posted September 28, 2008 on Mark's Blog:
Warning: difficult but fun! We've taken 20 well-known college football teams, and anagrammed their nicknames. Your job is unscramble each one and retrieve the nickname that we started with. For example, if the clue were "Cabarets", you could unscramble it to get "Bearcats" (Cincinnati), or if the clue were "Enduring Cholera", you could unscramble it to get "Golden Hurricane" (Tulsa). How many can you get?

    Spent three minutes trying to get Pirates. Didn't get Boilermakers because I don't drink but should have gotten Cornhuskers because I lived with the Amish for eleven years...
