Dartmouth Big Green. Not the best nickname, but the best mascot, Keggy the Keg:

OK, it's not a college. It's a high school in Traverse City, Michigan, but a cool mascot, nonetheless.

My favorite for a long time was the UC Santa Cruz Banana Slugs.

But this thread reminded me of the Sorority Powder Puff League during my stay at Cal. Most teams just used their Sorority Greek names. But the Dorm Team, where I lived (Unit I), needed a name, they were "I Eta Pi". And they won.

Alaska Nanooks. They also have the greatest You Tube video I have ever seen:

I dare anyone to find a better team intro...





I agree, that video is pretty awesome. No evidence that the creative team was holding anything back on that video.


Some schools also seem to miss an opportunity when it is staring them right in the face. William and Mary recently voted on a new mascot (they didn't like "The Tribe" for politically correct reasons), and the Fighting Asparagus was a finalist.

We need to ask if we can send Oski to Alaska for a summer apprenticeship with the Nanook's mascot.

Okay, I realize this is about college names, but here is my favorite team name, the Richland High School Bombers from Richland, Washington, near the Hanford nuclear lab. When it comes to dueling mascots, this one can beat all comers (unless, perhaps there is a team of cockroaches somewhere).

My son who went to Brown reported that the Rhode Island School of Design ("Risdee") named their D-III club (can you get any lower?) hockey team the "Nads" solely so they could chant, "Go Nads! Go Nads!"


At least include a photo of the mascot, Scrotie

My short term memory is not what it used be, but based on my recollection, that rear view is much sturdier in nature than those that appeared in the record setting Hottie Thread.

There was an intramural basketball team at the University of Northern Colorado that had named themselves the "Fighting Whities."
