Husky Pride: Comparing the Success of the UConn Men's and Women's Basketball Teams Since 2004

Back in 2004, the UConn men's and women's basketball teams did something that had never been done before. Within just one 24-hour span, both Huskies teams won their respective NCAA national championships, making UConn the first school in the history of college basketball to win titles in both the men's and the women's NCAA Tournament in the same year. It was an amazing feat and, quite frankly, it was something that we never thought we would see again. It's hard enough for a school to win one NCAA basketball title. So two in the same year? Nah. 2004 was the ultimate fluke.

Or was it? As you've probably seen and heard by now, it just happened again. In somewhat of a surprise, the No. 7-seeded Huskies won the men's 2014 NCAA Tournament by knocking off the Kentucky Wildcats on Monday night. And in less shocking news, the UConn women's team beat the Notre Dame Fighting Irish last night to give UConn the first "double-double" in NCAA Tournament history. It's an impressive accomplishment to say the least.

It got us to thinking, though: Since both the men's and women's teams have been so damn good for UConn over the course of the last decade, which of them has actually been better? To try and find out, we took a look at everything from the number of championships that each of them has won in the last 10 years to the number of pro players that they've produced. So who reigns supreme in Husky Land? Let's get to Comparing the Success of the UConn Men's and Women's Basketball Teams Since 2004 to find out…

RELATED: By the Numbers: Do the UConn Women Have the Most Dominant Basketball Program in College Athletics History?

Men's Team: 280-103 (33-6 in 2004, 23-8 in 2005, 30-4 in 2006, 17-14 in 2007, 24-9 in 2008, 31-5 in 2009, 18-16 in 2010, 32-9 in 2011, 20-14 in 2012, 20-10 in 2013, 32-8 in 2014)

Women's Team: 378-34 (31-4 in 2004, 25-8 in 2005, 32-5 in 2006, 32-4 in 2007, 36-2 in 2008, 39-0 in 2008, 39-0 in 2010, 36-2 in 2011, 33-5 in 2012, 35-4 in 2013, 40-0 in 2014)

Advantage: Women. The men's team has put together a pretty solid record over the last decade. But they lost more games in the first five years than the women's team lost in all 10 years. They also had two seasons that featured them hovering right around the .500 mark, which is something that hasn't happened on the women's side.

Men's Team: 2 (2011, 2014)

Women's Team: 4 (2009, 2010, 2013, 2014)

Advantage: Women. Not only do the women have two more titles than the men since 2004. But they have also gone undefeated and had perfect seasons during three of those four title runs.

Men's Team: 3 (2009, 2011, 2014)

Women's Team: 7 (2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014)

Advantage: Women. It's been seven years now—yes, seven years—since the women's team has failed to reach the Final Four. That is consistency at its finest.

Men's Team: 7 (2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2014)

Women's Team: 10 (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014)

Advantage: Women. To be fair to the men, they would have had eight NCAA Tournament appearances if they hadn't been banned from postseason play in 2013 because of prior academic issues. But even if they did have eight appearances, that obviously still wouldn't be as many as the women have had.

Men's Team: 1 (2011)

Women's Team: 8 (2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2014)

Advantage: Women. The Big East—the conference that UConn used to belong to—had a postseason tournament was always a crapshoot for the men. Anyone could win. It was the exact opposite on the women's side, where UConn routinely dismantled their Big East foes. It looks like they're going to continue to do that in their new conference, the American Athletic Conference, too.

Men's Team: 14 (Jeff Adrien, Hilton Armstrong, Josh Boone, Andre Drummond, Jerome Dyson, Rudy Gay, Ben Gordon, Jeremy Lamb, Emeka Okafor, A.J. Price, Hasheem Thabeet, Charlie Villanueva, Kemba Walker, Marcus Williams)

Women's Team: 13 (Jessica Moore, Ashley Battle, Barbara Turner, Ann Strother, Wilnett Crockett, Ketia Swanier, Charde Houston, Renee Montgomery, Tina Charles, Kalana Greene, Maya Moore,Tiffany Hayes, Kelly Faris)

Advantage: Men. We have to give the men at least one win here, right?! Er, right. So by the numbers, we'll give this one to the guys.

Men's Team: 4 (Rudy Gay in 2006, Hasheem Thabeet in 2009, Kemba Walker in 2011, Shabazz Napier in 2014)

Women's Team: 7 (Renee Montgomery in 2008 and 2009, Tina Charles in 2009 and 2010, Maya Moore in 2009, 2010, and 2011, Bria Hartley in 2012 and 2014, Stefanie Dolson in 2013 and 2014, Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis in 2013, Breanna Stewart in 2014)

Advantage: Women. The women's team has had more All-Americans, and they've also had five All-Americans who have won A-A honors more than once (and something tells us Stewart will be joining that list soon). The men's team can't mess with that.

Men's Team: 2 (Jim Calhoun, Kevin Ollie)

Women's Team: 1 (Geno Auriemma)

Advantage: Draw. We were tempted to give this category to the men since, you know, two is better than one. But Calhoun and Auriemma helped put Storrs, Conn. on the map—both figuratively and literally—and Ollie is already proving that he's going to extend the winning tradition that Calhoun started on the men's side. So we can't pick one over the other here. And we're guessing the men will gladly take a tie at this point.
