Not on this list but a great nickname.

What's your favorite nickname/mascot? Or rather second favorite behind Fightin' Tigers, of course

I actually preferred it when Lehigh was the Engineers.

But to answer your question, I always liked the Chanticleers and Thundering Herd. Hofstra should never have changed from the Flying Dutchmen name either.

And Zippy at Akron is an awesome mascot.

Mary Baldwin College (girl's school) is the Fighting Squirrels. The mascot is named Gladys.

I've always thought the Demon Deacons sounded cool.

My favorites (after Tigers..)have always been:

Banana Slugs
Wolverines
Spiders
And if I'm honest....Ragin Cajuns

Green wave and crimson tide can go suck an egg.

Good one. IIRC, they got the name because one of their pitchers had oddly long arms and legs.

I like the Thundering Herd also.

How about the Pittsburg (KS) State Gorillas?

Screw the Spiders. Bunch of rich kids.
Honestly, I always liked the Volunteers, and love Rocky Top.
Thundering Herd, and Ragin Cajuns are good too. I think Privateers are cool too.

Without looking at the list, the Arkansas-Monticello Boll Weevils was always a favorite.
