For schools like UCLA, North Carolina, Kentucky, Duke and Kansas, the answer is often the following: All Basketball. All the time.

For the first time in the college football AP poll era, dating back to 1936, all five college basketball blue bloods – UCLA, North Carolina, Kentucky, Duke and Kansas – are ranked in college football's AP Top 25 Poll at the same time.

...but their Basketball teams will play for a National Championship and have a good shot at winning it, pick one of their football teams that has the same shot.

They all did at the beginning of the season.  Are you suggesting that college football should have a 68 game playoff?

"All five college basketball blue bloods".  Someone better tell Crean that Indiana was left off this list.

Louisville considered 6th on that list by some people and they're also ranked this week after the win over ND Saturday night.
