Pace Setters
Stetson Hatters
(My two faves)
Fighting Irish
Minutemen
Longhorns
Sooners
Razorbacks
Wolverines
Aztecs
Ragin' Cajuns (yes it's tempting to hate on this b/c of all the University of Looziana douches -- but it's a great name)
Unfortunately many of the great Indian mascots have been killed off

Gators (homer pick)
Mascot has a girlfriend and is found on campus, wild, in its natural habitat. And it's unique (not a bulldog, tiger, etc)

I'm partial to any nickname that has a tie in with the culture of the area it represents.
Ex:
Longhorns, Sooners, Ragin Cajuns, etc... I've also always like Fighting Irish.
Generic animals(Tigers, Wildcats, Bulldogs) are the worst, IMO

Fighting Sioux is a good one. Wow. Just looked it up and they are being forced to change. that sucks
eta: sorry didn't see it was already posted
Razorbacks is a good one. I have read that there is a pretty long history of associating "razorback" hogs to the state. It's more tied to the area than I ever new.
Also I like South Dakota State Jackrabbits

Re: Indian names. Rule of thumb should be what the tribe thinks. If the Seminoles are down with FSU having that nickname, fine. If the Sioux don't like UND being the Sioux, UND ought to change.
And Washington Redskins? C'mon, man. It's past time to come up with a different name.

I know I'm biased, but for historical reasons, I love 'Volunteers' as a mascot.
