A writer for FootballScoop has compiled, A definitive, authoritative and completely correct ranking of every FCS school’s nickname.
The author's ranking for Ivy League schools:
1. Penn Quakers
2. Cornell Big Red
3. Dartmouth Big Green
4. Harvard Crimson
5. Yale Bulldogs
6. Brown Bears
7. Columbia Lions
8. Princeton Tigers
Green Alert Take: The author concedes up front he has fondness for "color" names. Color me confused ;-)
Green Alert Take II: Apart from Penn, the Ivy League doesn't have particularly creative nicknames.
Green Alert Take III: I wonder how the Ivy rankings would have played out in, say, 1970? (Think about it.)
