At 10pm tonight (Wednesday) I will provide the answers...

I thought this would be fun for this week, so, here are some trivia questions for those of you who wish to participate. (Bragging rights to who accumulates the most points.) All questions are from 2000-present day

1.) Since 2000 (including that season), how many wins does NU have through the Northwestern game? (2 pts)

2.) In that same time frame, of all 65 CURRENT Power 5 programs, where does that number rank NU? (5 pts)

3.) Who is the top 10 in wins in that time frame of the 65 CURRENT Power 5 programs? (2 pts each)

4.) There are 5 programs who have yet to eclipse the 75 win mark in that time period, who are they? (2 pts each)

5.) Which program is in first place with 167 wins? (2 pts)

6.) Which program is in last place with 56 wins? (2 pts)

7.) Which conference has the most programs UNDER 100 wins? (5 pts)

8.) There is 1 program who has eclipsed their 100th win during this season, it occurred last week, who was it? (10 pts)

9.) Which conference has the most programs OVER 100 wins? (5 pts)

10.) BONUS: How many schools in the nation (high school and college) have the mascot "CHANTICLEERS" and who are those schools? (5 pts)
