I put Texas at 1, simply because So Cal hasnt done anything in a very long time.
Whereas Texas baseball is like Duke basketball: should they have more titles than they currently do? Probably. But at least they're in the mix just about every year.
Like another poster said earlier: them becoming dormant is quite a mystery. You'd think they'd have all the advantages, but kids these days would rather play college ball at UCLA, Stanford, Arizona, ASU or Fullerton (however they've been terrible recently)

They both cheat at the highest levels?
Not saying Wooden was a bad coach. He was a respectable ~.65 over his career prior to Sam "Papa" Gilbert joining UCLA. Suddenly Wooden jumps from ~.65 to ~.95 and goes on his decade run. Sam Gilbert was a known mobster and yet Wooden got to keep all the banners.
USC has been proven to cheat in all sports and was a clear case of "loss of institutional control" worthy of the Death Penalty. USC was cheating at Women's Soccer and Volleyball in addition to the major sports.
If a SEC school did what UCLA or USC did, the NCAA would have burned it all down and salted the earth after.
