You got me. I thought I was missing some. I knew it was 11. One is unofficial so someone other than Benson must try to find it. Darn you Plano people!

Well, this has always been my specialty in sports trivia, college nicknames.

I was actually thinking NCAA D1 teams.....New D1 football team, Georgia Tech actually has two nicknames, Yellow Jackets and Ramblin' Wreck, so I guess you could count them.

Full list of college nicknames.... http://www.smargon.net/nicknames

Nah, can't really count GaTech. The "Ramblin Wreck" is more like Auburn's "War Eagle" type-thing. A "Ramblin Wreck" is what our students are called since that's what we're turned into at this place. Or it's a literal term for our football program.
