You the best ❤️

Getting to the Final Four is hard, but what's harder than that is making it to the Final Four in both Basketball and Football in one season. Only a handful of schools have done that. Alabama is one of them. Florida also has done it.

Oh boy oh boy where do I even begin Hardwood.... my sunshine....

I didn’t include every single mid major. Just some high profile ones. Video was getting way too long. Others not mentioned: 1970 Jacksonville, 1970 New Mexico St, 1970 St Bonny, Drake had one late 60s. There were quite a few

@hardwood_yt Western Kentucky is a high-profile mid-major, I mean, CBS ranked them the 21st greatest cbb program of all-time.

@@jupitervideos7702 i guess I meant more recent memorable ones. I really wish I could have added all of those guys. There’s so many good ones. Next year I’ll probably do an updated video like I did for “How Far Each Seed” and do a deeper dive into the mid major final fours.

He did a good job on a vid less than an hour long also the tournaments are decades old. Nearly a century old if you wanne go way back to those teams that won the first few Championships back then like Utah, Oregon, Stanford, Wyoming, Wisconsin ,CCNY (they D-III now), Oklahoma ST, Holy Cross, etc. And also the Ivy League teams back then Final Four. It would take forever and longer video. Also. Hes a young guy. Hell , he called us old heads if we recall teams from the 90s 😆. Anyway ya. It would take forever to touch up on every single one of the teams. Lot of other younger ppl dont know that Marquette , Utah, Cincy (MVC/Metro), Memphis, Louisville (MVC/Metro) , Butler, etc were once mid majors, mid major conferences etc. Also the SWC was a major conference before the breakup in the mid 90s. Ended up merging with Big 8. So you have Texas, TAMU, Baylor, Texas Tech etc joining up with Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa St, Mizzou etc. Which created the Big 12.. While teams like SMU, TCU, Rice and Houston were left stranded and ended up on mid major conferences up until..... some of them ended up back into major conferences decades later on (recently). Also back in days the NIT was considered the main championship 🏆 during the 50s, 60s and prior? That interesting to think about. Imagine a vid for that?.

Power 5 is meaningless. UConn and Villanova have combined for 8 national championships in the last 25 years without being in a power 5 conference (Big 10, Big 12, ACC, SEC, PAC 12).
