rearing its ugly head.

Just to reiterate. The term big 3 insinuates that baseball, basketball, and football are all on the same level. They're not, the term is an inherent fallacy. It's...

Football


Basketball





Baseball

No big 3. There is a humongous 1(football), a big 1(basketball), and a peripheral 2 (Women's basketball and baseball)

we could win 5 CWS in a row, and I still wouldn't care about college baseball. Nor would I try to pretend that it's even in the same stratosphere as men's basketball or football.

Don't lie to me Jed




If y'all won the CWS five times in a row you would make a baseball thread every day

Pretty much.

Let me sum up this thread:

Bama fans, only football matters because we suck at every thing else.

Auburn fans, the big3 is legit because we are pretty much mediocre in all of them.

Arkansas fans Big3 makes sense, we are a big deal in all of them.

Ole Miss fans, big3, sure we almost get to the post season of each every now and then.

Ms. State fans, SEC West title matter.

LSU fans big3 yeah, if you are talking about basketball in the 80s or womens' track.

Tennessee' fans. No, football only, pre-2002.

Florida, big3 is legit.

Carolina, football and baseball is all that matters.

Georgia, football and sometimes baseball.

aTm, football sometimes, basketball a couple of years ago, baseball sometimes.

Mizzou: Lets us tell you about the times we were almost good at football and basketball.

Vandy: No fans to voice their opinion.

Kentucky: Basketball is all that matters.

this is not a discussion that revolves around unique fanbases. it's a discussion of national relevance.

Though I wouldn't expect a poster of your caliber to understand.

LSU's big 3 is legit. We have a pretty good basketball history. 4 final fours , 6 elite 8's,9 sweet 16's. 10 regular season SEC titles. Not elite but by far legit. #4 program in SEC history.

#1 Kentucky
#2 Florida
#3 Arky
#4 lsu

Spot on. With those aluminum bats, most of the real talent in the pros, and the nonexistent tv ratings, it's closer to softball than baseball anyway IMO.

we've been to Omaha three times since 2000, how many times has Ole Miss been?

Again, this isn't a debate about one school's unique interests.

Big 3 truly represents the biggest three Arkansas douches, per Chick.

Any guesses?
