Just out of curiosity, what would such a logo look like?

Sewanee was one of the first college football powers of the South.
The 1899 Tigers won 12 games and lost none, outscored opponents 322–10, and won the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association (SIAA) title. Several writers and sports personalities consider this Sewanee team one of the greatest football teams ever to play.
With just 18 players, the team known as the "Iron Men" had a six-consecutive-day road trip with five shutout wins over Texas A&M, Texas, Tulane, LSU, and Ole Miss.
This trip is recalled memorably with the Biblical allusion "...and on the seventh day they rested."
1899 Sewanee Tigers (Wikipedia)
As a side note, that Auburn team (the only one that scored points against) was coached by John Heisman.
Sewanee eventually became a co-founding member of the SEC in 1932, never won a conference game, and left in 1940, which helped usher in the creation of DIII sports.
"A small liberal arts college simply can not compete in football with large universities," the school president wrote at the time.
