Monday morning trivia

In order to gather the links for this morning post every day, I run through a series of Google news searches. Most of the time it's an easy way to find relevant Washington State stories, but every now and then an impostor sneaks through. Something about Wichita State, Wayne State or even one of the other teams with a Cougar mascot. Which brings us to the trivia question of the week.

Q: Name the six schools which participate in Division 1 men's basketball and/or football with a Cougars nickname.
