Title: Would you rather ... ?
Post by: EMAWzifried on November 01, 2022, 04:15:50 PM
Win a Big 12 conference football championship or a national title in one of the minor sports? My thinking is that for national branding and prestige wise, the football crown is by far more valuable, but I'd be interested in hearing insights and wisdon of this hi-IQ sport community.

I’d rather win a Dr Pepper over anything, even a hoops natty.

But I’m an idiot

I’d take a Dr Pepper over all the non-MBB national championships combined.

To just get people to shut up about the natty thing, the natty thing, then after that all peppers all day everyday. But if we got a pepper this year like I think we will I won't care so who cares

Sounds like we compromised. We can win 1 natty in mbb, then just Dr Pepps forever

Football is just the battery necessary to run the rest of the AD. I’d take MBB F4 over a Dr Pepper.

Bud, no one gives two shits about the big 12 championships we already have. Let's be real, no one would give a crap about any ncaa championship we win either, but a track and field national championship gets us off that graphic.

I think we have a non-zero chance.

Exactly this.  It would be nice if we could be elite at one minor sport.  But oh well.  Not that important.

My response is that K-State has won something like 38 national championships by individual track & field athletes in their respective events.  So what if it wasn't a "team" title.

Is that something “people” really talk about? Or just something KU fans say during football season and whenever we are competing for the conference title in bball?

I could honestly go either way regarding FB vs. MBB titles. Never sniffed a FB natty, so I don't know what that feeling would be like. MBB titles are pretty great, though, because of the whole run through the tournament, and the agony and the ecstasy rises the further you advance. It's intense.

The excitement and national spectacle of March Madness makes MBB championship over FB natty an easy call.

Isn't natty one of the fundamental gE memes?

natty is not nearly as offensive as tuddy/tuddies.

Never thought I'd be in agreement with a Squawk regarding anything sports related but I'm full on team Spracne on this one.
