Did UCLA's 20 game win streak feature this from a year earlier?  http://www.mackbrown-texasfootball.com/000_stats/97/ut-ucla.htm

UT was dogcrap when the conference was created; 66-3 in your own backyard when you consider yourself elite is ridiculous.

Yeah. It's so hard to be a UCLA Bruin.  :blahblah:

Yeah. It's so hard to be a UCLA Bruin.  :blahblah:

It would suck huge balls to be the main rival of USC. UCLA has been awful since 1998.

I guess I'm kind of talking about all together (you know, the eleven national titles in basketball?)

I just did a wikipedia on UCLA Bruins. Those &*$@!ers have won 100 national titles all together in fifteen different sports. We've won what, two in equestrian and that's it? Damn, it really sucks to be a Bruin.

In addition to that.. UCLA alumni includes:

Jackie Robinson, Reggie Miller, Bill Walton, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Rafer Johnson and Troy Aikman (all hall-of-famers or will be hall-of-famers in their respective sports).

KSU hall-of-famers:

I remember watching the K-State - A&M game on one TV and having the UCLA - Miami game going on another TV right next to it. I remember seeing the wave of excitement go through the crowd at the K-State game as one side learned of the end of that game and watching it spread from one side all the way to the other. It was a great moment. Too bad we forgot to play the end of our game.

:banghead:

We have many more titles than just equestrian.  There are the 35 or so individual national champions in track and field, including this guy:

Plus K-State has numerous national championships for debate team, livestock judging, poultry judging, and land judging.  And I was just reading this article in the High Plains Journal the other day about the crops team winning the national title in April:

http://www.k-state.edu/media/newsreleases/apr07/cropsteam42707.html

"K-State has won the contest seven times in the last nine years."

There may be more titles that I don't know of off hand, but there is no question that K-State dominates in the agriculture field.

As for hall of famers, can we claim Walter Payton since he was illegally recruited away from K-State?

I only posted UCLA's team titles. I'm sure if you added in their individual champions you'd have several more because of their national titles in gymnastics, swimming, and track. You're right though, agriculture is where it's at!  :ksu:
