lose 4 games every year in football?

or win the MNC every 10 years in football and have a mediocre baseball program ?

I thought LSU is a baseball school, I'd go with the first one.



Yours?

Football MNC all the way. It's probably the 2nd most popular sport in the US, behind the NFL.

These hypothetical situations are dumb, if i know future results of either, I probably wouldn't follow either sport or just bet big money on them and become rich. See Back to the Future II

It's a poll to know if you're a bigger fan in baseball or football

I don't like questions when there is no reason why you can't have both.

I would not trade our current situation for either of those because I think we are in an even better position (winning the NC in football more than once every 10 years and have a better than mediocre baseball program).

But if I had to choose between those two options, I would choose the second one. As others have said, football all the way. One football championship is worth more to the school and the athletic program than several (possibly even all 5) baseball championships. And the loss of our football program dropping to the point of perennially losing 4 games every years without a national championship would be far greater than the loss of our baseball program slipping back to mediocrity.
