The University of Oregon has a fighting duck for a mascot. If their mascot ever had to fight the one from Oregon State, I'm not sure who would win - a duck or a beaver. Neither one really strikes fear into one's heart.

At least Portland State is the Vikings.

Disagree. I've seen some beavers that were absolutely terrifying,

The Youngstown State University Penguins: Jim Tressel led the Penguins to six NCAA Div. I-AA Football National Championship games, winning four times before going taking the Head Coaching posiiton at The Ohio State University where he already as gone to the Div. I-A National Championship game twice, winning once. Go PENGUINS and BUCKEYES!!

Canadians know that the Beaver always swallows the duck.
