Just so long as Ohio State doesn't somehow manage to pull off being National Champions in football and basketball back to back.

Has that ever happened? I think I remember hearing of it, but don't remember what school pulled it off.

No school has ever won football and basketball national championships in the same year.

I believe Notre Dame won a championship in football and went to the Final Four in basketball sometime in the early 70s, but that's about it.

Trust me, hardly anyone in Columbus even knows the Bucks are ranked in basketball. We don't start thinking about that until football season is over, if ever.

This year Texas was pretty close (Football: AP/USA Today/BCS 2006 MNC;Basketball: Lost in Regional Final [to LSU who had Glen Davis aka Big Baby]).

I totally thought you were talking about football ("I'm pretty sure Ohio State's #1 in both polls... maybe he means USC, but they're not #1, either.") and not coincidentally figured you were on drugs.

Dam, I missed OSU by one pick in the office pool (unfortunately I was 6 of 6 lol). Had to take Wisconsin. Still got some other decent teams like LSU, Washington, BC, and Villanova.

Yeah Pitt baby. It's almost impossible to get student tickets for B-ball games anymore.
