Half the teams in the Final Four are quite a bit worse than previous previous teams that didn't sniff the Final Four. That tells you a lot.

More important to us or more important to the world?  Either way I'd have to answer "yes."

Not that I'd trade a Pepper for it, but a College World Series appearance/win would be pretty fun

Quick, can you name who was in the FF last year? Exactly. Can you name the winner of each BCS game lat year? Exactly. I can't do either, so that decides nothing for me. maybe it will help you though.

With only a couple of exceptions, the most financially viable BCS athletic departments are one's with good football programs. 

It's really a no brainer.

Football has way more strategy/schemeing than the game of basketball has. So, more intellectuals watch football.
Luke's stock is rising as Winters continues to validate his greatness. Add Luke and Winters to my list! Also, EMAWBLAST! and Tobias!

Sometimes, the mental gymnastics required to watch football make me want to veg out and watch basketball.

If America could give any less of a eff about basketball, I would love to see it because right now no one cares.  It is like a yawn showdown.

yeah, it's like, "hey! a cindarella story team! just like multiple times every season in this pud sport!"

True, no lucky 18/20 three point shooting in the game of football.

Elite football programs (Mich, UF, Ohio St, ect) buy FFs every once in a while just from boredom.  Meanwhile, elite basketball programs can barely field a football team.  The best basketball team in the state can't even afford a football team...think about that.  The reason we have the best combo of revenue sports, is that we put football first...when you get rich, basketball success just comes.
