FYI, it's the super six for gymnastics (as opposed to the final four) and LSU has made 3 appearances at the Women's College World Series.

Wat.

It's Florida, easily. They'd have a championship in baseball as well if they didn't meet an SEC team in the finals.

Use directors cup scoring. It covers ALL sports. Anyone can be good at one sport but being good in 20 sports is damn hard.

Think Bama's Dominance overshadows everything else even if you consider the top 3 sports. Does Florida being relatively good at 2 sports mean more than Alabama being God's of the football world?

I don't believe so.

You do know Florida won two consecutive championships in basketball in 2006 and 2007 right?

The correct answer to this question is which ever team is the most successful in the most popular sport

I would go with UF. They have the most SEC championships, plus have multiple titles in football and basketball recently, along with recent CWS appearances.
I would put LSU 2nd. They have the most national titles. They are also the only one with 10+ SEC titles in the big 3 and a national title in those sports.

I know it doesn't really mean much, but the Capital One Cup offers an interesting way of ranking college's athletic programs (men's and women's sports ranked separately). They used to have 3 tiers of sports for scoring purposes, with football, basketball, and baseball carrying the most weight for men's sports, but I guess they lumped everything into two groups this year.
For what it's worth, no other program besides UF has claimed the Capital One Cup for men's sports!
(and it's been around for a whole two years)

See below - 215 SEC championships, don't believe that second has much over 100.

Hey now, I can argue for Vandy over the last 2 years!

Only team in America with bowl appearances, Men's and Women's Basketball, and Baseball postseason tourney appearances the in last 2 years!

And they're kinda a little bit smart!

Probably UF, then LSU

Bama isn't even close. Yet they clearly in the lead for football. And it's a pretty big lead.

Arkansas only really has track and field. Meh.

If LSU had better basketball we'd be in the lead IMO.

Currently the defending national champions in football, gymnastics, softball (only SEC school to win it), and women's golf. Men's golf finished second. Basketball was in the NCAAt last year and baseball looks to be on their way to the NCAAt this season.

Florida is the answer to the OP though.
