Bottom line, more people around the country could tell you who the top 10 football teams are and very few, and most likely non-football types, could tell you the top 10 mascots.

Peruna is not going anywhere. You can still pet the pony, ogle at the pony, whisper in its ear, pull its tail, and tell all your favorite pony stories.

Let's focus on football -- unless you're more interested in the Mascot Top 10 List.

really? heres what you do then. quietly retire the current Peruna and install the new peruna which just happens to be a bit bigger. Don't have a political ceremony starring the wife of an absurdly rich oil and gas man. Don't have two mascots in the stadium at the same time (completely unstable) and don't spit on the traditions of the school in the whole process.

how many Country Lite Old Drunkin' Washed-Up Hippie Cowboys does June Jones know-this could go on for a few more years.

Thank you for making my point. If we were focused on football, we would'nt be trying to CHANGE THE MASCOT

absurdity and irony is lost on some people Knuckle. Just like the point of celebrating the wild mustang by parading out a doped up, gelding in the name of a mustang. truly absurd. Yes, lets focus on football, by all means. It would be about time.

We need to do away with the fraternities too. Ever since they quit swallowing goldfish they have gone downhill. Tradition, we don't need no stinkin' tradition.

Which mascot do you want opposing fans to make fun of? The small horse with a kill to his credit or a horse with no balls. Can we get "America" to sing at a game, about going somewhere on a horse with no balls, it feels good when his wife calls or something along those lines.

When have we ever cared about what other people think?

why don't we get all the live mascots from c-usa, put them in a pen in the south endzone and see what happens. could be exciting. i'm for adding bevo too. that thing looks like he is looking for a place to lie down. the cougar would have to be the odds on favorite but hey that's why they play the game.
