Over-rated chant

...Johnson... got the swallows...

That's either irony or a physical impossibility.

In basketball, Wiscy has only been #1 one time, for a single week in 2007.

tOSU has been #1 for 34 weeks in the AP poll all-time, which is the 8th most of any school.

134 - UCLA
121 - Duke
105 - N Carolina
089 - Ky
057 - Kansas
045 - Cincy
044 - Indiana
034 - Ohio State
032 - UNLV
029 - Ariz
029 - San Fran

017 - Illinois

In football, Wiscy has also only been #1 for a single week. They lost in their only appearance as a #1 football team, 23-14 to tOSU in Columbus on October 11, 1952.

Edit - Ohio State is the only school in the top-10 for appearances at #1 for both football and basketball. That's why the Buckeyes are able to be beaten while #1 in both sports in the same academic year. It's an achievement, not something to be mocked for.

In other words, Wiscy has been #1 in football and basketball a total of once each, and they lost in Columbus each time.

Good stuff, BB73. What's even more funny about Wisconsin is that if memory serves, when they were ranked #1 in '07, they even had shirts printed up publicizing the fact; however, they promptly lost either on Monday or Tuesday of the week that they became #1, such that they were really #1 only for 12 or 36 hours, after which time they knew they were going to be bumped down thanks to their loss. And FWIW, they lost in the second round of the NCAA tourney that year. Bush league program.

Most of which came during the last half of the 58 - 59 season and all but the final weeks of 1959 - 1960 -1960 - 1961 seasons. Lucas, Havelicek, Nowell, Siegfried, McDonald and somebody named Knight.
