    Interesting little exercise. I didn't do too well I could only name 40, there were a bunch that I just couldn't spell correctly and if you can't spell it no credit and there were a bunch that I had on the tip of my frontal lobe but just couldn't bring them to consciousness.

    Interesting when you are finished you can look at the stats at the most correctly guessed coaches through the least. As you might expect the big time schools had their coaches guessed the most.

    Guess the coaches

    I managed to get half, 60. I got at least one from every conference except the Sun Belt. Cool game, thanks for sharing.

    I got 52, the spelling killed me and I wasted too much time. Had I been smarter about it, I would have just typed in common last names before giving it any thought :)

    For the life of me I couldn't spell the BC or the Duke's coach names correctly....I knew them but I couldn't get it done.

    I experienced mental gridlock on a few that I should have gotten. I couldn't think of Missouri's coach or Oklahoma State's coach although I knew them both. I nearly flubbed on the Big Red "train's" coach too but managed to pull it out.

    I didn't realize there were any other coaches named Pelini, Osborne and Davaney.
