Bud Wilkinson refused to pay for their trip to Omaha, because they weren't good enough and the budget was tight. President George Lynn Cross overruled him, and the rest is history...and a title.

Pretty crappy of Bud if you ask me. Not to mention pretty crappy of the whole University--50 years for rings! Makes you not take athletic support for granted today that's for sure.
