Message: [QUOTE="HakAttack, post: 1730676, member: 1010"] Go back and look up the last 20 years...since 1996. Duke's won it 3 times, UNC's won it twice, Kentucky's won it 3 times, Florida twice and UConn 4 times. Kansas, us, Michigan State, Maryland, Louisville, Arizona have won it once. Take teams that won multiple titles in that time period out of the equation, (UNC, Kentucky, Duke, Florida and UConn) [B]and you have only six different schools winning it all in a 20 year time span. [/B] So what does that tell you? The elite blue blood programs win the large majority of the time, with a few very good to elite programs sprinkled in there. For three programs, that national championship was their first and only title. (Syracuse, Arizona and Maryland). [B]That's not really much parity.[/B] We like to think that anyone can win the NCAA Tournament, but in reality, it's usually the same 5-6 teams with few others winning it every few years. [/QUOTE]
