Thanks for visiting! Meanwhile, while Alabama’s football team has won 12 national championships, their basketball team is consistently under the radar. However, some NCAA schools have excelled in both football and basketball. Here are some prime examples: 1. Cincinnati Bearcats The Bearcats’ football team has not only played in 10 bowl games; it has a winning record of 6-4 in those bowls, and has won the last three of them.

For starters, you would have to play four post season games instead of 3. You would definitely have to subtract a game or two from the regular season to decrease injuries and players playing way past January. Another issues is you would be putting teams like Ball State, Georgia Tech and TCU in there, who would generally get blown out every year by the USC’s and Florida like teams of the NCAA. Yes there are those who would say “there could be Cinderella teams” the “underdogs” like in NCAA basketball. Yes it is somewhat possible, but the recruiting gaps in football or a lot more severe than in basketball.
