I prefer Fighting Tigers for this reason also. Louisiana troops were mentioned as fighting like tigers.

Almost always preceeded by "TOUCHDOWN".

I know alot of people hate when ol' Vern does that, but I kinda like it.

Yep, only outsiders use the phrase "Bayou Bengals".

I prefer "Fightin' Tigers" since that is the official nickname. The media drops the adjective though they don't usually do that for ND or Illinois. I don't mind "Bayou Bengals" since it's distinctive.

Bayou Bengals is my favorite, with Fighting Tigers coming in a close second.

Yep. Fightin Tigers has more real meaning than any nickname or mascot in sports. Hands down.
