My roommate was from Lincoln, so I got educated in the ways of the Big Red. 
 
Is it just me, or does the Big XII have some weird mascots?  I have no room to talk, ours is a giant bird that has nothing to do whatsoever with our actual team name, which itself is an awe-inspiring whirling vortex of destruction.

 Cy the Cyclone is a Red Cardinal...I don't get it either.  My friend is an alum of ISU, and he wears something from there EVERYDAY.
He is an entomologist though, and I think anyone who gets a graduate degree in bugs & insects, and has dressed up as the Orkin man is "special".
