Ranking all 68 of the 2023 men's NCAA tournament teams by mascot
March Madness is HERE. And we know the next few days until the first round of the 2023 NCAA men’s tournament will be filled with you filling out your bracket, erasing it, filling it out again, tweaking it, tweaking it again and then making last-second changes before tip-off Thursday. If you’re into doing deep research with stats, rankings, and history involved… then this isn’t the list for you. This is the seventh annual version of the list to help you pick your bracket based on team nicknames or mascots. My completely non-scientific system is based on a combination of moniker creativity, how threatening the mascot is and, sometimes, the look of the costumed thing.
- Picks against the spread for every game.
- Power rankings of the Sweet 16 teams.
68. Illinois Fighting Illini
There was apparently a push to get the belted kingfisher bird to be the university’s new mascot, but with no mascot at the moment, I have to put them at the bottom of the list along with some other mascot-less schools. At least they got rid of their previous mascot that was rightfully deemed offensive.
I haven’t seen anything indicating that the kingfisher has been pushed through, so we’ll keep them here for now.

Again, universities with no mascots get ranked low — I haven’t seen anything about what they replaced the insensitive Aztec Warrior with.

I’ll repeat what I learned from last year:
OK, so they should be back with the other mascot-less after getting rid of the controversial Izzy the Islander last year.
But I’m giving them bonus points for teaching me something: When they were selected, I was flabergasted that they were called Islanders. What island is there in Texas? Turns out it’s located … on its own island!
