I'm not going to pretend that baseball is huge everywhere in the country, but it's way more popular than hockey and lacrosse, nationwide. There are roughly 300 D1 baseball playing schools, compared with about 60 for the other two sports mentioned.

baseball isn't that big

big two is what matters

Except for LSU fans who think that it's bigger than basketball.

Just off the top of my head I'd pick UNC. They're usually decent in football, good in basketball and baseball.

Texas? Is this a fricking joke?! Maybe historically but certainly not lately.

First off, what are your Big 3 sports? Second, Ohio State has to at least be in the discussion. Michigan? lol

Elite 8 in Basketball

In 2005-6' Ohio State went to the National Title in Football and in Basketball

Ohio State has been a top 10 program in Football and in Basketball since 2005.

in 2011 UConn played in a Super Regional, won the basketball national title, and played in the Fiesta Bowl.

Louisville last year.

I think Arizona a sleeper in this discussion. #2 in hoops, beat Oregon in football and won a bowl game (a crappy one I know), and won the baseball national title in 2012.

Lol. I forgot about that UConn football team. The only teams they played that season worth mentioning were teams that worked them.

Not saying they are the most balanced but they're certainly working their way up would be the Ducks.

And to the Hockey crowd: Volleyball > Hockey (College at least.)

Florida, Texas, and sometimes UCLA

If it wasn't for baseball it would be Ohio State

ETA: are we talking this year or historically?
