Purdue,

I still want to know why the Wyoming Cowboys dont have one named after them, but then again if you saw last week's game against TCU then that probably explains it.

I'm going to go with the flow, purely on basis of name, as I don't actually know fotball. Purdue.

The Purdue Boilermakers, without a doubt. They have long been known as a leader in the field of railroad engineering.

Do I need to answer. Never thought railfans were football fans. But who isn't? Of course Boise can beat their pants off in a game, but Purdue has the best logo.
