Hmm...I wouldn't say we're a perennial challenger for the final 4, but maybe the sweet 16. I certainly appreciate their vote of confidence however.
#2 eh?? not too bad

They obviously made this list without realizing that we don't have Top Daug anymore :p Without Top Daug we won't even make the NIT, babies will cry, pigs will fly and Eddie Sutton will never retire (I swear.)
No but really if you factored in a top 10 women's basketball program we'd be right there at the top for the big 3 tv sports.
Louisville #4?
so you're willing to settle for mediocrity?
Who would you have put at #4?
West Virginia
No I just didnt think we would be that high....dunno why...it just suprised me at firstso you're willing to settle for mediocrity?

I would like to see them add women's basketball and baseball to the mix and see who comes out on top. Using that logic, Texas would probably remain No. 1 because of its baseball program and its women's hoop team usually contends (not this year, though). OU would probably remain No. 2, but may give Texas a push depending on how far the Sooner women can go. Florida's probably third, because its baseball program played in the College World Series finals last year and the women's basketball team was ranked in the top 25. LSU may vault into the top five on the strength of its baseball and women's hoop programs.
You've won 3 in a row in basketball but I believe we won 5 in a row before that. Anyway, it's a snapshot. As the author wrote, "See if you agree with this group, based the latest accomplishments at each school..."Not to mention, we've been DOMINATING the #1 team in both sports for the past six years.
I doubt anyone could argue that Austin, Norman and Gainesville are the top 3 in this category, and the 3 are pretty interchangable. Texas gets the nod this year because of the Rose Bowl and the conference lead in basketball.
And how many did OU win in a row before that streak?
I believe 8 or so.And how many did OU win in a row before that streak?
Oh yeah?! What about the streak before that?! Wait... that would be your streak. I'm confused.
I'd put Michigan at #4. Or maybe a Pac-10 team, if I was an idiot.
Not to get TOO emotional, but it is kind of cool to be that high on this list AND to have your bitter rival up there with you. Each program makes the other better.
#1 Can change from year to year based on what happens in October.
That's where it ends.never had a streak until the recent 5 in a row.

We didn't have a real basketball program until Barnes got here.That's where it ends.
Sweeeet. For me, basketball didn't start until about '99 because I lived in south Texas and wasn't exposed to college ball at all.That's where it ends.
College basketball started for me when Bird and Magic squared off in 79, and watching Tisdale in high school and then go to OU cemented it.
