Title: Is winning the Big12 10 years in a row a big deal?

Yes. But probably a little watered down due to the fact that during that span, there wasn't another powerhouse team in the Big 12.

It's just a direct representation of how much money they put towards their football program.

It's even more impressive than losing 38 of 39 conf football games is unimpressive.

48-4 in the last 52 vs. Butthurt State is pretty good too.

Has this ever been done in another conference though for real? I feel like this is a 1st.

Its never happened in a "basketball conference" like the ACC or Big East (was)....  Kinda cute in a football conference like the Big 8/12 or SEC tho.

Agree. Impressive

Snyder is 17-1 last 18 vs KU.  I believe our last 16 wins, he covered the spread (many we covered easily, some by halftime). Also impressive

Most definitely.  I will say someday, sadly, the streak will end.  All I can hope in my TSC heart is that it is the Wildcats who break the streak.  If KU can't have the conference crown, why does it have to leave the state?  TSC forever.

I feel like this is a pretty big deal. I am just really sorry for all of the students that with all of those wins that haven't experienced more court storming.

I stormed The Bill after a win against ISU in 1994 (I think). ISU didn't win a game that year, BUT I DID NOT GIF! Students were made to storm the court/field!

It feels like it should be a big deal and it probably is, but I think due to the Hobby Sport conversion rate it's about the same as 1 football Confy.

this is correct.  they haven't won 10 straight anything.  we lay just as much right to that title as they do.  obviously when a shared title is in play you don't count it towards a streak.  no one else ever has (or will).  ok, maybe A&M would.

lol @ ku fans doing anything they can for a small slice of validation on the national stage :lol:

Kansas' streak of 10 straight Big 12 titles is a truly great achievement, but I do think there is something to the criticism that this is also an indictment on the rest of the league. At some point, one of these other schools has to step up and break this string, especially considering this is the third time Bill Self has won a title at Kansas after having to replace his entire starting five.

48-4 in the last 52 vs. Butthurt State is pretty good too.

I know I'm uber late with this comment. . .but relative to football, 52 games is less than 26 seasons if it includes times we played in the big 12 tournament.  Considering in the last eighteen seasons of Snyder's tenure he has beaten KU seventeen times. . .I think these two are extremely comparable and not as disparate as Beems would have us all believe. 

That being said, the video in which Bill Self says "Ties don't count" completely debunks the ten in a row for me.  Congratulations KU on the start of a new streak.
