Alcorn was known as A&M before it became "State". And that is not the only school to do that: Oklahoma St. won two National Championships in basketball as Oklahoma A&M. LSU is the same.

Well, all schools at one point or the other had a different name. Akron U was Buchtel College. Cleveland State was Fenn College.
Michigan was: Catholepistemiad of Detroit
And Oh...i...o....there is this: the educational institution heretofore known as the 'Ohio Agricultural and Mechanical College,' shall be known and designated hereafter as 'The Ohio State University.'"

Penn St. was "The Agricultural College of Pennsylvania"

Purdue has had no name change, it has always been Purdue Univ.
Illinois was "Illinois Industrial University"
Northwestern has always been just Northwestern
Wisconsin was originally "the University of the Territory of Wisconsin"
Minnesota has had no name change
Iowa was "The State University of Iowa"...not to be confused with Iowa State, which was originally Iowa Agricultural College and Model Farm
Nebraska has always been Nebraska....but they officially call it "Nebraska-Lincoln" Wisconsin also technically is Wisconsin-Madison but for these schools most people know them must by the state name.

I still cry "foul" on #4...

Hello, McFly...is anybody Home? We didn't draft Cribbs......he was a UDFA.....QB or otherwise. I think we may have signed some UDFA black QB even since Cribbs who did not make the cut...didn't we?

But it might be fun saying Catholepistemiad of Detroit Coach Harbaugh .....but not to "m" fans.
Plus it would never end.
