Since WWII??    This isn't cfb we are talking about.
 
 
AP polls didn't start til 1949, POST WWII.
 
 
And Minnesota had more AP poll appearances than Syracuse all the way up until 1985.
 
That's a fact.
 
Our 1949 team that finished the season ranked #6, but didn't get an invite, and our 1955 team ranked #11 that didn't get an invite, and our 1965 team ranked #7 that didn't get an invite and our 1973 team ranked #10 that didn't get an invite and Our 1972 Big Ten Title winning team, and our 1977 team with 5 future NBAers on it and our 1982 Big Ten Title winning team and our 1989 Sweet 16 team that beat your Syracuse team, and our 1990 team that missed the Final Four by one missed 3 pt shot at the buzzer(I was at the game in New Orleans) were all pretty good.
 
Before we hired Clem Haskins in 1986, all evidence pointed to Minnesota being better than Syracuse in college bb up to that point.
 
Then we hired Clem Haskins, and from that point on Syracuse passed us by, and in grand fashion. Congrats, I am happy for you all. And thank you for so disrespecting all we did BEFORE that time. Shows me how much class you all have.
