Damn guys. Let's pick it up a little bit.



I'm trying to figure that one out. UT, TAMU, and SC have women's bball teams. UT has one helluva softball team. TAMU, SC, and Vandy all have baseball teams. Oh and UT and TAMUs golf teams did very good this year.

The only things I can think of are 1. UT for some reason let our once pretty good track program fade into obscurity and 2. maybe we don't have whatever wildcard sports they're looking for?

EDIT: Re-reading their criteria baseball brought us down which is totally unfair for us since we barely have a baseball team. Softball is more important to us and our wildcard sport would probably be something like soccer.

I'm not so sure he's a fan of that either.

And this doesn't even include our success in T&F.

But seriously, along with Arkansas and Florida, TEXAS A&M has one of the best athletic departments overall in the conference. Clown list.

I agree with you...you also left LSU out of there. List is a joke. aTm is definitely top 6 in SEC.

It is just looking at one year. This was our worst in football and basketball in decades, and we are always terrible in women's basketball. This list doesn't really do anything but reaffirm it, but there is no doubt UF, along with A&M and some others are a notch above others when it comes to all sports.

Yea, Arkansas, Texas A&M and Florida are certainly the Big 3 in the SEC. I'll print the shirts and have them framed.

So, LSU
* Went to a bowl game (for the 15th straight year and 18 of the last 20).
* Mens and Womens BB both made the NCAA Tourney
* Baseball and Softball both went to the CWS
* Mens and Wonens Track made Top 10.
* Mens Golf wins national title
* Gymnastics finishes in Top 5
* club Lacrosse wins NC.

And all we rank is fricking TWENTY-THIIIIIIIRRRDD. ????????
