Not exactly. The NCAA did not pick a champion at all until l998 with the BCS. The NCAA deffered to the AP and UPI coaches polls which were considered the gold standard of polls in those days. They had Minnesota as #1 and Ole Miss as #2. Reading some of the history of the football polls back them, there were hundreds of publications back then that picked National Championships which had a lot to do with who read their magazines.

Then explain to me why they list us as national champions on their site if they're just going by those polls.

that irritating moment when all this could have been avoided by adding to the OP.... "football not included." Damn.

It would still be an inaccurate shitty thread.

There are multiple ways you could have excluded us. We have national championships in tennis and track. They aren't team championships though so you would have had to put that in there as well.

If you include non-team ones, we're #1 ahead of Arkansas and LSU.

If MSU wins here's the OP


Ole Miss is now the only SEC team without and NCAA sanctioned team National Championships. You've won twice Bulldogs.

We have a decent amount of non-team ones I think.

Too long of a title. Sounds like you're actively trying to exclude us. Good trolling takes little to no effort.

Alabama has tons of individual titles in track, field and gymnastics and some others I think.... but we never parade them around like the team titles. Which is a shame when you think about it, those guys and gals work hard. The college game has always been a team oriented league though.

Ole Miss has 0 NCAA Titles.


much simpler. plus it ensures you'll extend the thread with pointless poll talk and ncaa website links.

Number 1 in other polls that the NCAA recognizes as well.

We're talking about all NCAA titles in this thread. Not just Basketball and Baseball (Football doesn't have NCAA champions).
