Trying to decide which scores higher on the originality scale: references to Wichita not being a state, or the Wizard of Oz. If they could only come up with a reference to chickens crossing the road... -

120 total weeks spent in the AP top 25 in program history - 83
1 week spent in the AP top 25 in program history - 59
The score will likely not end up being factual, but the AP poll references actually are. In case you are keeping tabs, that puts MSU 9th out of 10 teams in the MVC historically with regards to AP poll appearances (Evansville has never even seen the AP top 25).Comment

Yeah, that hit me after I lazily posted that. I fact-ed my post just seconds before you pointed it out.Originally posted by Play Angry View PostComment

Fun facts:
*Since the start of the 2011-2012 season, WSU has spent more weeks ranked in the AP top 25 than every other MVC school has in their entire history, except for Bradley and Loyola.
*All-time, WSU has spent more weeks ranked in the AP top 25, than the MVC's bottom 7 have combined.Comment

It depends on the context doesn't it? The statement is factual if someone is claiming that Wichita is one of the 50 states which comprise the United States of America and to the best of my knowledge no one in Wichita is making that claim. To the extent that MSU is making an effort to educate their students and help them learn the names of those 50 states in order to obtain their MSU degrees it is probably a good move on MSU's part.Originally posted by Stickboy46 View Post
On the other hand this T-Shirt is factually inaccurate if the context is Wichita's position vis-a-vis MSU in men's basketball. In this context Wichita is clearly a state of dominance.Last edited by 1972Shocker; January 21, 2015, 05:34 PM.Comment

If they underpay their janitors to the extent that they underpay their D1 basketball coaches, someone should notify the Board of Education that they're utilizing slave labor.Last edited by Rlh04d; January 21, 2015, 06:10 PM.Originally posted by BleacherReportComment
