And now...the trivia quiz!

So I thought I'd start posting random trivia questions for you to ponder. Everybody should exercise their minds, right? Today's question is brought to you by NCAA basketball withdrawal.

Name 5 NCAA Division I teams whose primary mascot does not end with the letter "s." Hint to get you started: Syracuse is no longer the "Orangemen."

Good luck! I'll be posting the answer the day after the quiz under the "comments" section.

Signing in is just too hard... I know we've done this one before but I'm operating on six hours just spent in an airport... so.... St. John's Red Storm, Syracuse Orangemen, and crap, now I'm coming up with things like Orlando Magic and Miami Heat... you'd think I'd know this by now... oh, this is kim :)

Great question, Rob! Red Storm, Fighting Irish, Fighting Illini, Wolfpack, Cardinal, and.. for good measure, the Big Green :)

Here are some of the possible answers:

Notre Dame Fighting Irish (Rudy! Rudy!)
Illinois Fighting Illini (big debate in Champaign over this one)
Syracuse (not fighting) ORANGE
NC State Wolfpack (Go Pack!)
St. John's Red Storm (isn't that on Mars or something?)
Dartmouth Big Green (turns out they are division 1!)
Stanford Cardinal (you'd think a highly-ranked school academically would know how to make nouns plural)

Feel free to post others!
