Name 5 FBS teams whose nicknames:
1) aren’t a color
2) aren’t an animal
3) don’t end in “s”

I have 4 of the 5 but I need the fifth. I think my guy is lying. I think there’s only 4. I’ll put the four I know as a spoiler.

Stanford Cardinal? I mean technically it's a tree right?

No, Cardinal refers to the color.

On Campus.

Here's the list of names. I think your guy is mistaken, unless he is counting "Green Wave" or "Crimson Tide" not as a color.

UNC Cocksuckers? No that can’t be right. That ends in an “s” as in more than one.

Marshall Thundering Herd. Mascot is an animal, nickname is not.

Had to change my answer because it didn't fit.

It was bull shit. I had to go and explain to the dude that Cardinal is a Fucking color, hahahaha. His fifth was Stanford. He’s like no it’s a tree! I’m like you. dumb. bastard. There is no Fucking Cardinal tree.

Yeah, their mascot, for some reason, is a tree. But their team name is a color.

Marshall Thundering Herd. Mascot is an animal, nickname is not.

Herd being a group of animals would = animal.

Tulsa Hurricane.

 

[Boglodyte]

Irish are humans, and humans are animals, so technically....,

 

[fightinfunbags]

Tulsa Hurricane.

I think Golden Hurricane is their name so it violates the color thing.

 

[jjc2009]

Tulsa Hurricane.

Aren’t they the Golden Hurricane? Color is disqualifying

 

[jjc2009]

I don’t think there’s a fifth unless you consider the Thundering Herd to not be an animal. (It’s animals plural).

Yep. Dude tried to tell me Stanford Cardinal and his rationale was that they’re a tree. I had to explain to him that the name itself comes from one of the school colors. So dumb. There’s only 4.

Also disqualifies the NC State Wolfpack and University of Nevada Wolf Pack

It might be a trick question. Ga Tech is called the Yellow Jackets...but they are also known as
the Ramblin Wreck of Ga Tech.

There aren't 5 by that criteria.

You could try to say the Syracuse Orange being as how their mascot is a fruit that just so happens to be the same color, but otherwise no other FBS teams fit. I checked.

Even though the mascot is a fruit, the team name still refers to the color.
