Fictional College Database
I'm trying to accumulate a list of fictional colleges and universities for current and future dynasties. I do fairly well creating them, but figure people living in other states might know of cities/towns or whatever that might lend themselves to a good storyline as home to a fictional college or university.
If so, share them here. Here are some I've been working with lately: Scottsbluff State Lions (Scottsbluff, NE) Southern Wyoming Storm (Cheyenne, WY) University of the Rockies Explorers (Golden, CO) Wyoming State Bushdogs (Casper, WY) Yellowstone University Rangers (Cody, WY) Yosemite University Mountain Jays (Mariposa, CA) Keenesburg State Welders (Keenesburg, CO) Central Colorado Roadrunners (Denver, CO) Last edited by Young Drachma : 11-20-2011 at 02:22 AM. |

I always wondered why Michigan had Northern, Central, Western and Eastern but not Southern. Stuff like this?
Southern Michigan University Oaks, Jackson, MI or perhaps? Charleston State University Charlies, Charleston WV

I have always wanted a team at Utah Valley University...they have a basketball team, baseball and such..but the board refuses to give them a football team because of competing with BYU for fans / attendance.

A few days ago Florida approved a bill that got signed by the governor to make USF Poly a separate state university. So I'll create them too.
Gov. Rick Scott approves bill creating new state university - Florida - MiamiHerald.com

Trying to come up with a D2 powerhouse school that's going to move up from the NAIA ranks. Or from D3. Either way, this list is useful.
