[QUOTE="Illini2010-11, post: 1956304, member: 748820"] I take these rankings with a grain of salt, as there are serious flaws in how these ranking are calculated. Stanford wins so often because of the shear volume of teams they have. They have 31 NCAA teams, which is 10 more than Illinois (Ohio State has 11 more than Illinois). The rankings are based off of the top 19 sports teams at the school. As a result, schools like Stanford have an inherent advantage, especially in sports that have much fewer schools involved (much easier to pad the stats). [/QUOTE]
