BELIEVE OR NOT-THERE ARE NOW 340 COLLEGES THAT PLAY NCAA DIVISION I MEN'S BASKETBALL!
Included in the 340 teams are: New Jersey Institute of Technology (do they go by "Jersey Tech?"); USC-Upstate (as in Southern Cal, I assume, but the best you could come up with is "Upstate"?) and Savannah State (named after a dead porn star?)! There was a time when I knew the nickname/mascot for each Division I team- not any more! I know Oregon's nickname- the Ducks!

Yes, but there are only three teams that I care about: Go Flames! Go Badgers! Go Volunteers!

LMAO @ USC-Upstate. It's about 10 minutes north of me. I have a bunch of friends/acquaintences who went there. They'll go 7-22.

So it is South Carolina -- Upstate?? Yuck.

Yep, it is South Carolina! They are the Spartans and play in the Atlantic Sun Conference- home of Gardner-Webb and Mercer, two teams with big victories this past week.
