Duffman is about as good as we could have hoped. Then again, Disco Stu would have been cool, too.

I think Texas should have been Mr. Burns.

I think Homer makes a lot of sense though.

I had to LOL at the Hawk fan/ISU student who says Duffman doesn't make much sense for ISU. Are you kidding me? Its perfect, and not just because of the alcohol thing. Duffman is the guy that everyone loves and no one takes seriously. And he drinks constantly. Its f'ing perfect.

I don't get why OU is Mayor Quimby and UT is Homer, but the others are pretty apt.

Duffman also has dyslexia and an estranged daughter who dropped out of college. Boo-yeah!!!

I read some of the replies on Reddit, and I see what they are saying that Texas is the central figure of the Big XII which is Homer. However, I hold the perspective that Texas is hold wealthy/evil empire traits which Burns would fit more of those characteristics than Homer would.

I feel like WVU could have easily been Cletus as well.

yeah, WVU as Cletus, and KU should have been Comic Book Guy, the one who thinks he's better than everyone else.

Comic Book Guy would have awesome for KU.

The dead bear Jedidiah Springfield makes plenty of sense for WVU, given the fact that the WVU mascot (who looks like Jedidiah Springfield) actually killed a bear last fall.

No, comic book guy is better than everyone else. KU should have been Troy McClure, maybe?
