WTF is up with your obsession over Alabama? I mean its not even a beef with the University of Alabama but with the state as a whole.

You just butthurt over us ruining Tebow's last season? Or did Rolando Mcclain sleep with your wife?

Many commuter school kids end up transfering to get an on campus degree, I would bet the UCF graduation rate in proportion to enrollment is skewed. Is it hard to get accepted to Florida as a freshman ?

Unless you are asian-kid smart you must work your way to Happy Valley by enrolling in one of the dozen PSU satellite campus

You forfeited you're question with "your own" answer. How does

Seeing how bad Alabama's bball team is and how shitty their season has gone
equate to an overall shitty sports program? Flaming for the sake of flaming is fine, but if you're serious in thinking that Alabama is some terrible program because we're not dominant in all sports at one time all the time, then I don't know what to tell you. You're either jealous, obsessed, or you just really wanted to try and attack Alabama. Otherwise you would have included the rest of the SEC. What is Florida hanging it's hat on lately?

Have you seen A&M's dominance in non-revenue sports? I'm pretty sure our tennis budget dwarfs the rest of the country.

Completely relevant to everyday life. I'm sure 99.9% of people know this. This is starting to sound like Arkansas and their 23464256 track titles. Is this what Fla has become?

Edit: but Auburn sucks dick at baseball and basketball so...

Yet we split in basketball with OM this year.. Stop trying to deflect your teams atrocious athletics programs recent history to another school.

ETA: And if you want to compare baseball programs, we've been to the CWS twice since the last time you've visited.

Missouri and Ole Miss are the only SEC schools without a major bowl appearance, CWS appearance, or final four in the last 35 years. It's a tossup between those two.

A reasonable mind would choose Arkansas.

Last year the All Sports rankings were:
1. UF
2. UGa
3. Bama
4. Auburn
5. Arkansas
6. Tenn
7. LSU
8. MSU
9. South Carolina
10. UK
11. Vandy
12. Ole Miss

I think this is a pretty good indicator, although LSU and Tenn are usually ranked higher and Bama usually a little lower. In 2010, LSU and Tenn were 3rd and 4th, and Bama was 8th.

Currently I think it's a wash between Tennessee and Ole Miss.

Football: Ole Miss is horrible, and UT sucks. Advantage: UT.

Basketball: about even, both at 5-5 in conference right now.
Advantage: Even.

Baseball: Ole Miss could be pretty good this year, could be mediocre, but either way they're better than UT.
Advantage: Ole Miss

Which SEC school has the worst overall sports program currently?
quote:
Women's softball and women's gymnastics?


These aren't just decent programs. These are top 5 programs in the nation, along with football.
How many SEC schools can claim that?
LSU (football, baseball, ?)
Florida
Who else?
It should be noted here that you are claiming Bama has the worst overall sports program currently and we can claim three top 5 programs. When you start talking about in the SEC, you would probably have to include Men's Golf and before tonight men's basketball was probably the 5th team in the NCAA tourney.

So you tell me, is this the mark of the worst sports program?
Stupid question is stupid question.



Since the turn of the century, LSU has had perennial national championship contenders in:
Football, Baseball, and Men's and Women's Track and Field - Indoor and Outdoor.
Men's Baskeball has had 1 Sweet Sixteen and 1 Final Four appearance also this decade.

Women's Softball, Gymnastics, and Basketball have also been national contenders this decade.
