    MsState8 on Delphi * says its a Big 8 thing. OU, NU, MU, KU, CU

    In understand their dyslexia. Think of the alternative. If they didn't flip the letters it breaks down into distinct BIG 12 groups, it might send the wrong message.

    First you have the wrong identification group. Oklahoma and Nebraska
    UO You owe
    UN United Nations

    Secondly if not flipped you have the phonetic impaired wrong message group. Missouri and Kansas
    UM I can't decide
    UK That is gross

    Then there is the group of one who can’t win for flipping UC. Colorado
    CU Goodbye
    UC Are you blind?

    I don't know if I like flipping UL, but I do know I don't like how it is mistaken for Underwriter Laboratories

    I like LOUISIANA
