Without looking name the top 5. Stolen from a CBSSports.com article that is trying to show what colleges have the best combination of basketball and football programs. For winning % UConn is right up there with what everyone considers hoops royalty. And 4 national championships, more than any other school in that time frame, to boot.

Fifteen best win percentages the past 20 seasons:
Why did they use 20 years? Norlander needs to tell Kentucky that their titles from the 1940s and 1950s don't count much.
Let's now deal with the numbers over the past 20 years and see which schools can claim platinum status in each sport. I wanted to examine the here and now. Practical reasons. Because even though they make for thicker media guides, bragging rights and are historically important, achievements from the 1940s, '60s and even '80s don't bear much relevance today.
