The Golden Hurricane of Tulsa (Golden is a color!)
The Fighting Illini of Illinois
The Fighting Irish of Notre Dame
The Wolfpack of NC State
The Midshipmen of Navy
The Cardinal of Stanford (cardinal is intended to be a color when Stanford uses it)
The Thundering Herd of Marshall
The Bison of North Dakota State University (not division 1)
The Fighting Sioux of University of North Dakota (might change names soon)
The Crimson Tide of University of Alabama (crimson is a color)
The Red Storm of St. Johns University (red is a color)
The Orangemen of Syracuse (Syracuse is the Orange, not the Orangemen and that's a color anyway)
I can only count 6 NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS formerly division 1-A) teams with mascots that are not colors and do not end in an "s." I suppose people could argue over the Stanford Cardinal even though it is supposed to be the color.
Fighting Irish
Fighting Illini
NC State Wolfpack
Nevada Wolfpack

These come from the Wikipedia List of Div I schools.

A couple come to mind - - The Fighting Illini (University of Illinois) and The Stanford Cardinal (the color) of Stanford University N. Corrigan
Cardinal is incorrect (it's a shade of red). Thundering Herd (Marshall), Wolfpack (NC State), Midshipmen (Navy), Fighting Souix (North Dakota) are also correct answers.
