WJMorris3 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I have a list below of eleven statements. Each statement could apply to multiple Big Ten schools, but there is only one way to arrange the Big Ten schools so that each statement is true, using all eleven schools exactly once.Football team plays home games at Memorial StadiumHas won multiple national women's lacrosse championshipsFootball team has no names on back of jerseysHas a winning record in the ACC-Big Ten ChallengeHas won both men's and women's NITHas stadium named for Heisman Trophy winnerPlayed in two consecutive men's basketball title gamesHas won multiple national men's track and field championshipsStadium has hosted at least one Chicago Bears home gameHas had multiple Heisman Trophy winnersHas won multiple national wrestling championshipsI'll give you guys, say, 72 hours to have at it, so I'll reveal the answers at 4:00 PM ET on Wednesday.Note: I request that those who answer this answer all eleven at once, rather than only one or two.

WJMorris3 Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 Two other things...One, I will stop the question early ONLY if I see all eleven answers correctly placed. So if you don't see me stopping, assume there's at least two answers wrong.Two, only one guess per person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJMorris3 Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 We'll try this again, only this time, the answers are the twelve SEC schools. Most statements apply to multiple schools, but there's only one way to make 'em all true at once, using each school only once.Joined the SEC in 1991Has won multiple BCS championshipsOnce coached by Paul BryantTeams named the BulldogsNever played in the SEC Football ChampionshipBasketball arena seats at least 20,000Football field does not have slingshot goalpostsHave won multiple NCAA championships in swimming and divingNever won SEC Baseball TournamentHave won multiple NCAA championships in golfNever won NCAA titlePlays for the Foy-ODK Sportsmanship TrophyWe'll give the standard 72 hour time limit, so answers will need to be in by Thursday at 4 PM ET. Remember, only one answer per person, and you need to give me your full list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJMorris3 Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 n/mComing soon.I'm going to note that when I refer to a school never winning the NCAA title, it is possible for an individual or two to be NCAA champions without the team winning.

Geoff Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I've been talking to Will on MSN and the way he is phrasing this has got me doubting myself, but I'm gonna put it out there the 11 can't be Ole Miss becuase they have at least 3 football championship (59, 60, 62).... Damn you, Will. Athletic Director: KTU Blue Grassers Football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 However, none of those football titles were truly NCAA titles, as they weren't conferred by the National Collegiate Athletic Association. They were the result of polling and/or pronouncements by third-parties. I took it that Will was seeking which SEC school had never won an officially-sanctioned, NCAA-administrated/bestowed team national championship competition. Mississippi State and the University of Mississippi have never claimed NCAA-sanctioned team national championships. However, given that Mississippi State was the answer to category #4, that leaves the University of Mississippi as the answer to #11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
