Does land shark not imply really nasty and physical defense?

It's a two-bit gimmick.
I'd be disappointed in my university.
To each his own I guess.

Yes. Yes it does. Which was on full display this past Saturday in Tuscaloosa.

The Alabama Crimson Tide Red Elephant Landsharks.

Landshark makes about as much sense as a land locked school naming themselves the Commodores

Just off the top of my head, mascots clearly worse than Land Sharks:

1. Ducks. (seriously, what the frick?)
2. Horned Frogs (viscous little creatures, the frog.)
3. Tree. (most people let Stanford off for this one because they mistakenly believe the Cardinal is supposed to be a bird. It's a fricking TREE.)
4. Buckeyes. (We've gotten used to it because we've heard it so often now. But really - your mascot is a NUT? Can you imagine the Notre Dame Cashews? Or the Tennessee Pecans?)

Honorable mention: Trojans. Actually, the USC Trojan outfit is pretty cool...but any mascot that is such an automatic association with a condom has to make the list. We're talking a condom - not a sex organ, not a sex act, but a piece of rubber used as a jizz container (calm down, Aggies, don't get aroused). Nope, no thanks.

So "Land Sharks" is pretty weak, as SEC mascots go, but when you go outside the conference it's a LONG way from the bottom.

Don't forget the Santa Cruz Banana Slugs! Theres also the Akron Zipps.. they use a Kangaroo for their mascot which is actually kinda awesome.

Horned Frogs

One of the greatest university mascots.
Horny toads squirt blood from their eyes.
Beastly.

Duck is a funny mascot, denotes a sense of humor
Horned Frogs are just cool animals, great mascot
Tree is kind of dumb, but San Fran is famous for her tree hugging hippies, so it kind of works
Buckeyes is way dumb I have to agree

Trojans is ok especially when they play the Beavers, "The Beavers ripped holes in that Trojan defense"

Land Shark is neither funny or real, just dumb.
