Both of my alma mater's -- the Fightin' Blue Hens of Delaware and the Cowboys of Wyoming.

 

I saw Taufa'asua play a bit while in WY -- he seemed like a pretty good guy and was a very good college player (although WY didn't always play top talent)... been a while since I've checked out the Blue Hens though -- but I gotta root for both these guys
