Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

    One of these is not like the others.

    3 national titles in the past 30 years is pretty damn special. Only topped by Bammer in that stretch.

    yah, Florida doesn't belong there.

    on topic, i've heard some pretty delusional North Carolina fans think they were special ...

    I think it all depends on the criteria for what “special place” means.

    According to Winsipedia, Florida ranks above UW in 10/12 categories they track. The 2 schools are close in most of the categories.

    Michigan State boasts 6 national championships. Doesn't mean they don't view themselves in an overrated light.

    I'm wondering if Penn State belongs on the list? I think a case could be made either way.
