I already like the service academies and generally hope they do well, so of the list, I'll pick K-State. 

As y'all know, I love weird, run-heavy offenses, and those all fit the bill

Certianly of late. Historically ...

Southern Miss was high up there with Jeff Bower at one point. Looking at the historical record, UCF has the best winning percentage in FBS (57), better than directional state North Carolina. Other better than .500 directionals are Southern Miss .550, South Florida at .548, Central Michigan at .545, Western Michgian at .525 and ECU at .513. 

South Carolina and North Carolina State are other non directionals with directions in the name.

If we are including states that contain a direction within the name of the state itself, then West Virginia has to be in there somewhere. 

So long as we are going there, Marshall ought to change their name to Western West Virginia. O0

They are not even the best directional state school in their own state Washtenaw County. :d030:

Suthern Cal used to be decent.

South Dakota is good in their league usually.

Interesting question, we could also ask what is the top "city" school, like Cincinnati of Memphis or Houston.

Yes, definitely USCw. Not sure how we missed that one, good call. 

UCLA might be the answer to your "city" question as well. :great:

I suppose they could be a city program, sort of, still UCAL though.

University of CITY would be more pure, Pitt, Cincy, Laville, Houston, Memphis, Miami, Boston College (?), ...

Then there are programs with NO geographic term in their name, Notre Dame, Purdue, etc.

Northern Illinois is not bad.

I have a soft spot for East Dakota. Not so much for their coach/clown/carnivalbarker.
