Alabama, Oklahoma, Oregon, Virginia Tech and _________ won at least 10 games in five of the last six years. Finish the sentence. No, not ACC bound Louisville, not Texas, not Ohio State, not Syracuse, not Pitt, not BIG bound Rutgers, not BIG bound Maryland. The answer, you guessed it:



CINCINNATI

Easy....first team that comes to mind (even before Bama, OU, Oregon, VT) is Boise State.

Boise State has won at least 10 games for 7 STRAIGHT seasons.

Boise State has won at least 10 games for 10 out of the last 11 seasons.

You forgot to list one team in that group. And it's not hard to guess which team it is. It's the team that beat 3 out of that group of 4. And the team that has won at least 10 games in 10 out of the last 11 years.

Oops. Knight beat me too it.

I hate to admit it but Ohio State fits the bill as well. I've seen this claim posted around a lot lately, and I've been guilty of reposting it, but it's clearly wrong. I'm sure we can find more teams if we look a little harder.

That said, UC has proven on the field AND court that we deserve a better conference.

And you'll get it. The dominoes are not done falling yet (unfortunately).

I love Cincy's football stadium. So cool!

Ohhh, Ohhhh, Ohhhh.....U C !

I know you guys want to move to a better paycheck conference, but I love being conference mates with you guys.

You missed a little, but a valid point. Cincy has definitely proven themselves.

Not to split hairs , but the stat the OP is quoting and being touted in the media is those are the only schools to win 10 games 5 of the last 6 years while playing in a BCS conference (while not on probation apparently ). Still does not make Boise's accomplishments any less . Best of luck to the Broncos (back) in the MWC

Then that would be valid. Devil in the details.

Good callout either way.

and Ohio state had to vacate all 2010 wins.

I think Sugar Bowl vs Florida anytime the Bearcats are brought up.

Yeah it was a shame that we lost Brian Kelly and got absolutely shredded by Tim Tebow and Urban Meyer's last game (Urb later came back for another year).

Tulsa has won 10 games in 4 of the last 6 years. Tulsa has won a total of 55 games over the last 6 seasons.

I know, the thread says 5 of the last 6, but 4 out of 6 isn't bad !

not bad at all

Tulsa is right Boise State and Cincinnati in terms of football programs outside the current power five. (not that far behind too).
