I don't mean to rain on your parade, so to speak
, but I don't think this is correct. UA doesn't have a lot of the teams where other schools pick up many of their All-Americans (you know it's not ALL football and baseball
.
For example, UA
doesn't have these teams: men's lacrosse, field hockey, women's lacrosse, men's soccer, fencing, cross-country, rowing, and wrestling. My alma mater DOES have these teams and this is where we pick up a lot of our All-Americans (mainly b/c schools like your's take all of the football/baseball ones!).
But also, let's look at SEC schools comparatively, and not just about football and baseball as I mentioned earlier.
According to the NCAA, the Div. I schools with the most NCAA championships (both men & women's sports combined) are:
1. UCLA, 90
2. Stanford, 87
3. Southern California, 82
4. Oklahoma State, 44
5. Arkansas, 39
6. LSU, 38
7. Texas, 36
8. Michigan, 31
9. North Carolina, 30
10. Penn State, 29
Looks like I'll be voting for the West Coast here
