Would you rather have Michigan win a National Title in football or basketball?
The title says it all. Which would you rather have happen? I'd say basketball for myself because they've been so close 2 and 3 years ago. Michigan football has been bad while I've been alive (first game I remember watching is 2005 alamo bowl), so it can only go up especially with Harbaugh. Plus, Beilein isn't getting any younger. Go Blue!

But, football.

Love basketball, but football 100 times out of a 100.

Football is by a mile, the number one sport, with the number one largest fan base, the number one rating, the number one prestige, the number one everything. I honestly can't understand how the question coud even be asked.
August 23rd, 2015 at 6:31 PM ^
Maybe because he's gauging personal opinions, not trying to see which sport has a higher head count.
I personally don't love one team more than the other but I pity people who see college basketball like methadone for a heroin addict.

enough.
August 23rd, 2015 at 1:29 PM ^
Would I like ten million dollars in a brown paper grocery sack, or a suitcase? Neither, I'd like it in my bank account. Clearly, what I'm trying to say is football.
August 23rd, 2015 at 1:30 PM ^
Football.

In basketball getting to the Final Four and Championship game means something...I suppose for us Rose Bowl's means something, but in this day and age, especially with the playoff, it's all about winning the national championship.
Football, no question.

Conference title or big bowl win would still be nice. That being said, I agree that football would be way better.

Yeah, but some of those schools have written off football as a loss and claim to only care about bball. Much like Sparty did for years when they were irrelevant. Look at how many people have jumped on the Duke bandwagon since Cutcliffe has started turning that program around.
I agree basketball will always be supreme with them, but the itch for a football championship would be there after a few winning seasons.

But seriously, imagine any of them reaching 10-0 with a game vs an arch-rival standing between them and a shot at the playoff. They'd be going apeshit, in a way piling on another hoops title couldn't possibly compare.
As for Michigan - cumong man! We had this thread not that long ago, didn't we? I'm straight out calling ANYONE who says basketball a LIAR - or a person seriously out of step with Michigan tradition and out of touch with their own heart and mind.
In other words - FOOTBALL would have to win 7 NC in 10 years before I'd even entertain the thought "Hey, maybe winning hoops would be EVEN MORE COOL this year!"

knowing a lot of UK fans myself, they would love to be good at CFB since they're in the SEC

August 23rd, 2015 at 1:36 PM ^
Football. Without a doubt.
August 23rd, 2015 at 1:36 PM ^
Football. And it's not even close.

Why not both?
August 23rd, 2015 at 9:11 PM ^
Because then the thread would read: Would you rather win a football national championship and a basketball national championship? To which 35 gazillion hits would all answer "Yes" and our blog would go down...501 errors gallore.
August 23rd, 2015 at 1:38 PM ^
Both would bring an insane amount of joy to me. We do not need to rank our loves.
August 23rd, 2015 at 1:40 PM ^
No matter how much you like basketball, football is king in this country. MSU became hard to tolerate when they got good at Football.
August 23rd, 2015 at 4:29 PM ^
Out here in the Bay Area, where there are many Wolverines and paltry few Sparty brahs, we get that same phenomenon from Raiders & A's fans. Inferiority Complex to make your teeth grind!
August 23rd, 2015 at 1:42 PM ^
Football, but either would be sweet. Any other sport would be a very, very distant third for me.

Basketball feels like winning a game. Football feels like you won a war.
