A Hypothetical Scenario

[TheGallopinGoose]

Would you trade 100 of Texas's all-time wins for a National Championship?

 

[LITNIN HORN]

No...since all of the great victories responsible for the MNCs we have would be included in the 100. That said...still no.

 

[horngrad03]

Yes.

 

[madscientist]

so we'd still have over 700 all time wins and now 5 nc's? probably. i wonder what that would do to our win %.

 

[longhornfan2818]

Short answer NO

Now aggy on the other hand would trade all the victories in the world for championship number 2.

 

[Bluepies]

When was it? More than 40 years ago and I'll say definitely no. More recent, let's say we win the Cotton Bowl in 1983, and maybe. If in the last ten years, then yes.

I just think 100 more wins is a bigger accomplishment for a program than a championship from, say, 1939.

 

[That's Right]

No.

 

[BDog]

I'm w/Bluepies

 

[hornian]

Can't we have both?

See Alabama.

 

[l00p]

That brings up a different issue all together. The 3 most prolific cheating schools are Bama, Oklahoma and aggy. So, would we want as many probations and actions taken against us as Bama and Oklahoma have had for another one or two MNC's? Would we see them as tainted or screw it, we have the trophy?

 

[Bevo5]

No and hell no.

Al time wins reflect a program's longtime success...shows that they're not just some lucky team every 25years.

And I don't want to cheat to win ever.
