49 wins & 4 losses

[kuhog]

49-4 was this years combined record for Kansas' two main sports this season. 12-1 record with an Orange Bowl victory for the football team, and a 37-3 record with a National Championship for the basketball team.

This combined record has to be one the best in recent history. What other programs have had this type of success within the same year? I'm sure there are a few. Anybody think of some others?

[kingguter]

Yes thats very good, but I think the success Texass had a couple of years ago trumps it. National title in Football, World series title in baseball, and elite 8 appearance by basketball. Maybe not trumps it, but certainly not bad.

Florida last year:  13-1 Football, 35-5 Basketball
Ohio State last year : 
12-1 Football,  35-4 Basketball.

It's not typical, but it's not unheard of, either.

[kuhog]

I forgot about Florida last year. Their accomplishment may never have an equal.

that's also very close to Petrino's record while at Louisille.....

just sayin'

[Table Rocker]

we would've won 12 games with that football schedule.

[ColonelNutt]

we would've won 12 games with that football schedule.

So we get spanked 38-7 by Missouri but we would have won 12 games playing a Big 12 schedule?  Um, ok.

you do realize they didn't play OU or UT right?
or that the only ranked team they beat in the regular season was a then #24 ranked K-State team (they finished unranked)
i'm sure you didn't bother to look that deep, just shot off a smart alleck remark.
and yes, i still believe we could've gone 12-1 with this schedule

We wouldn't have won 12 games with that schedule and you know it. Houston would have lost 3 games by himself.

I agree that we could've gone 12-1 with that schedule. I do think Houston would've blown one or two games, but KU's schedule broke perfectly for them.

[ErieHog]

We lost 4 last year, against a much more imposing schedule than that;  find 4 losses for last year's Hogs on that list, anywhere

Missouri-- sure-- but anyone else?  Maybe OSU?

Even Nutt couldn't screw that up.   

[hogfan064]

In 1995 we went 40-12 in the 2 major sports

Memphis this year went 44-9 if I'm not mistaken.
