This Study of Luckiest Nicknames Will Have You Rolling Your Eyes
Maybe you re one of the many fans who believes analytics have ruined the sport of baseball, then maybe you ll simply roll your eyes on this study, too.
The numbers crunchers have done it again. For the good of mankind, they analyzed 16,000 different high school and college football team mascots to come up with the luckiest, unluckiest, and most popular school football mascots.
First thing they found was, the most popular nickname is Eagles, so if you re from Schoolcraft, I ve already got your interest. But that s just the most popular. The luckiest is Conquistadors, but given our cancel culture, you have to wonder how long they ll even be around. The name is more prevalent in California, but teams with the Conquistador name have nearly a 1 in 5 chance of winning their league title.
