First of all, DON'T CHEAT!
Can you name 12 NCAA Div. 1 A football teams in which their team name does not end in the letter 's'? There are roughly 20 of them but you have likely heard of at least 12.
To get you started... Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Make your list BEFORE you go to ncaa.org and so you can see just how smart you really are.
kchomedad, now in Omaha
There are two Wolfpack -- NC State and Nevada
Stanford Cardinal
Navy Midshipmen
Tulsa Golden Hurricane
Syracuse Orange (no longer "men")
Alabama Crimson Tide
Elon and perhaps one of the UW directional schools -- Phoenix (or Fighting Phoenix)
Harvard Crimson
Dartmouth Big Green (though I've heard from an alum that they officially do not have a nickname)
Illinois Fighting Illini
Tulane Green Wave
Kent State Golden Flash (though when they refer to each other, they will call themselves "Golden Flashes" -- not sure if this one will count -- went to a track meet there a long time ago!)
St. John's Red Storm (last second recall!)
Division IA no longer exists, though I know what you mean -- you want bowl eligible schools. Thus, I fail b/c I have some Championship Division schools here (Elon, the Ivies). Thanks for waking up my brain this morning -- wish I could have aced the exam!
Just remembered St. John's.
Must . . .
Hit . . .
Post . . . and resume my life!

My wife asked me if I had signed up for the 401k yet. I told her I hadn't. She asked me why and I told her I couldn't run that far.
