re: Ranking the SEC in terms of the overall sports programs

Your criteria:

quote:

---

Based upon national success in the big 3 sports, since Arkansas joined the league.

SEC Championships have no bearing on national success. Also, you're now saying this has more to do with prestige and following though I'm not sure how that got switched from your initial statement.

National success is in BCS bowls, Final Four appearances and CWS appearances. BCS bowls, Final Fours and CWS appearances as similar, with more validity to the BCS and FFs.

Arkansas: 1 BCS, 2 Final Fours(1 win) and 3 CWS
Kentucky: 0 BCS, 6 Final Fours(3 wins) and 0 CWS

Again, this is your criteria by saying best overall sports program. Arkansas has in the last 25 years show to be the better performer in 2 of the 3 sports, and in the sport Kentucky dominates, they also have a national championship. That isn't too bad. Again, I know you are just fishing in all of this, but to put Arkansas down in the level of Miss State and Ole Miss is laughable. I am not even going to comment that you have them below Vandy.
