re: SEC Basketball Programs ranked by all time win pct. & all time wins through 2017

That is glossing over the fact that Arkansas has a NC + a Runner up NC. Ya, the 2NC is obviously more impressive but it is by no means a trump card.

---

UF has a runner up NC as well in 2000.

It wasn't meant to gloss over that fact, just that having 2 NC's makes up for a lot of the lack in history.

quote:

My point was that because of the low number of total games Arkansas has played the gap would continue to widen as the years go on if Arkansas continues at its 18 win per season average, as it has averaged over the course of its history.

---

An 18-win season under the current model of a season with a low 30s game-played total is not helpful. In a best case scenario, you'll play 30 games and thus have won 60% of your games.

quote:

---

I was simply explaining how total years of the program hurt Arkansas in that regard.

---

It only hurts Arkansas in the sense of total wins. However, as you went to total losses, the same argument goes the other way that of course Arkansas has fewer losses since they've played fewer years. Winning percentage does away with any "years played" differences. The 6% difference in Vandy and Arkansas equates to between 5 and 6 wins over 3 years. At best, you're winning 2 more games a year. All of that to say that Arkansas is not really some stand-alone #2 as you had tried to argue earlier.

the gap would continue to widen as the years go on if Arkansas continues at its 18 win per season average,

Your win% gap would decrease as 18W per season would be less than your current win%

I definitely agree, I just don't think you can say UF > Arkansas as a program quite yet. I think it is a better job going forward though if that makes sense.

---

This is fair, Arkansas definitely has enough talent for good/great coaches to have success here. Coaches just need to do a better job of keeping in state.

Big six in both big two sports.
Florida and LSU have a good case too

Pretty sure we're on the cusp of Big 6, if not in it, for baseball. Second in regular season titles (14), tied for second in tournament titles (7), and two CWS runner ups. We were so close in 1983 (lost to Texas in extra innings, then lost by 1 in the follow up game). Ah well.

We owe a lot of our basketball numbers to the Wimp era. Never made it past the Sweet 16, but we made it so often to it that I just came to expect it. 6 Sweet 16 appearances in 12 seasons, and won 5 SEC conference tournaments. Never got over that Sweet 16 hump, but dude was a machine. Over a quarter of our wins came during that stretch.
Oh, and in basketball, winning records over all SEC teams except Kentucky (duh, they own us like everyone else), Arkansas (28-31) and a .500 record against Vanderbilt.

quote:

---

1. Kentucky 17
2. Arkansas 6
3. Florida 5
4. LSU 4
T5. Mississippi St./Georgia 1

---

That's pitiful.

I heard a stat that UF has more SEC wins than anyone in baseball. I am going to look it up to see if true. We were never much in any sports until integration. Bunch of cracker arse beach bums.

SEC Basketball Programs ranked by all time win pct. & all time wins through 2017 by PurpleandGeauld

OH Fricken NO

Bama you do not get to say LF "played bad" in "the big games" (which isn't true except for the 2 Bama games) to imply he isn't good, then use your overall wins/win % to imply you have some lofty staus as a basketball team when you have absolutely sucked in all the big games.

1 elite eight, no final 4 = sucked in big games

I love you man

Hell, the same thing applies in football,too...only we're first in both wins and %. While you're at it look at baseball, too. You'll find Alabama right there around the top....and people question which school has the best all-time SEC sports program.

---

Funny how (actual) national titles in every other sport but football don't matter to y'all.

quote:

---

whether we are looking at the last 20 years or the last 100, we still have 2 national titles

---

Except 2 national titles does not a program make. This is about body of work all-time for the programs. Florida is not #2.
