What are some of the worst mascots in college sports? I think the two worst in my book are Willy the Wildcat of Kansas State and the tree from Stanford.

Herkie's plastic football helmet, Ohio State's Buckeye, Auburn's Tiger, Syracuse's Big Orange thing, Duke's Blue Devil, and Oklahoma State's Big plastic angry cowboy head.

Almost forgot Ole Miss having a Bear as a mascot now.

Actually surprised none of you guys threw Herky in there...

EDIT: While I was posting this, couple Herky 'fans' showed up.

Anyway, the Stanford Tree isn't an official mascot, IIRC. But doesn't make it any less hideous.

I'm not a big fan of PSU's mascot. And there's something about Purdue Pete that I just don't trust...

Obviously if you encompass clear to D3 you get a lot of crap - but since this one is local. I'd never want to be a peacock.

So much fail here. The tree rules, so does Big Red (Western Kentucky blob). Kstate is the worst followed by Nebraska. Next is Herkey with the football helmet head.

I don't know how the hell that happened frankly, or even if it matters, but that wasn't the case when I was in school. I didnt get the memo!
