Chase, Commish, Orange Power, QKarlo, and SOUM all need the No Names from Boston College to beat the Bugeaters from Nebraska to survive past today’s 11:00 Pinstripe Bowl!
- Nobody is eliminated if Boston College wins.
- Chase, Commish, Orange Power, QKarlo, and SOUM are eliminated if Nebraska wins.
- Diss picked BC but will survive with a loss.
- Boston College formed a football team in 1892 but lacked a mascot or nickname before they became the Eagles in 1920.
Before 1900, Nebraska football teams were known by such names as the Old Gold Knights, Antelopes, Rattlesnake Boys and the Bugeaters. In its first two seasons (1890-91), Nebraska competed as the Old Gold Knights, but beginning in 1892, Nebraska adopted Scarlet and Cream as its colors and accepted the Bugeaters as its most popular nickname until the turn of the century. Named after the insect-devouring bull bats that hovered over the plains, the Bugeaters also found their prey in the Midwest, enjoying winning campaigns in every year of the 1890s until a disappointing season in 1899.
