For not knowing anything about college football I got 62.

Level 84

Aug 28, 2015

Just type in:

"state name"

"state name" + st

"state name" = tech

over and over and you get most of them.

Level 48

Sep 4, 2017

Doing that will only get you 58/130.

Level 84

Jun 25, 2018

Not quite "most" then but very nearly half.

Level 27

Mar 23, 2022

after typing in:

"state name"

"state name" + st

"state name" + tech

you should type in the big cities you know and then fill the rest up with the colleges you know. then:

Northern/eastern/south/central/western + "state name"

Level 17

Level 44

Apr 30, 2014

Okay.

Level 44

I would vote for another minute or two. Enjoyed the quiz though :)

Level 30

Sep 1, 2016

98 out of 128

Level 62

Sep 26, 2016

This one is a lot easier than naming all the basketball schools but still a great quiz to get your mind going through NCAA schools.

Level 28

Level 48

Feb 21, 2017

Update needed: UAB will be restarting their football program, playing in Conference USA West and Coastal Carolina will be joining Sun Belt for 2017.

Level 33

Feb 23, 2017

Great quiz. One of my favorites.

'Lafayette' should be accepted for Louisiana-Lafayette and the same for 'Monroe' for Louisiana-Monroe

Level ∞

Feb 24, 2017

Good call. Those will work now.

Level 32

Mar 31, 2017

Nah. Lafayette's a different college, in the Patriot League last I checked.

The one in this quiz is, specifically, Louisiana Lafayette

Level 74

Aug 27, 2019

Agreed. I don't think Lehigh considers Louisiana-Lafayette a rival.

Level 52

Mar 24, 2020

On a related note, LA-_____ or UL_ should work for either of these.

Level 34

Mar 3, 2017

Good quiz. Finally got all of them. Dare I try the basketball quiz? Thanks for doing this one.

Level 33

Oct 5, 2017

if you type in 'st' and then longer state names like Oklahoma and Mississippi you get both the university of and state. Also works for Georgia/tech but not arkansasst or kansasst due to the double s.

Level 48

Jan 9, 2018

Updates for the 2018 season: Idaho moving down to FCS, New Mexico State leaving Sun Belt to become independent and Liberty joining FBS as an independent.

Level 45

Feb 26, 2018

I wasted about 4 minutes typing and retyping cincinnati (UC, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, and finally gave up.. I dont know what the deal is but I can spell the city I grew up in, and I know their team could makethe playoffs, a few years ago they were ranked in the top 10..

otherwise I got a lot of them, all of the big 10 most of the ACC, and Big 12 and SEC... I got all the pac 12 teams..live in AZ now so :)

Level 75

Jul 24, 2020

First time through got 79/130. Good for 1 whole point. I understand the points are algorithmic, but this one is pretty unforgiving.

Level 60

Sep 4, 2020

Was just typing in ____ and ____ State. I randomly typed in coastal, and got Coastal Carolina, the least guessed one!

Level 79

Never mind, the Big 12 survived ... for now.

Level 55

Who are the 3 new teams in the FBS this year, because there were 127 teams last year?

There have been 130 FBS teams since 2018 when Liberty joined. Coastal joined in 2017. UAB also brought back its program in 2017.

Level 29

Aug 8, 2021

Great quiz but there are no divisions anymore in the AAC and Louisiana should be accepted for Louisiana Lafayette, I hardly ever hear anyone call them their full name anymore.

Level 81

Jun 22, 2022

Glad to see my school (Washington) is in the top percentile of those guessed.

Level 89

Jun 23, 2022

Not enough time

Level 40

Aug 24, 2022

Southern Miss is in Conference USA.

Level 76

Aug 25, 2022

As an Australian I totally bluffed this one with naming states, adding state, naming towns and the few universities I have heard of because of American tv. Got 74! I didn't actually know any of these teams.

Level 64

Sep 2, 2022

The quiz description says to use the school name, so the US Service Academies should be updated to have more formal type-ins accepted. I tried "US Air Force Academy" and "West Point" as school names that did not work.
