He points out something that I've never really noticed: Why are college basketball teams who wear some type of blue color usually better? And why are blue teams not as good in football?

Just this year alone, 15 of the top 25 basketball teams wear some type of blue color and examining previous years show a similar trend. Football on the other hand this past year, there were only 5 teams in the top 25 with a blue type color. Surely it's mostly a coincidence, but you can't help but ask if there is some sort of aesthetic advantage to wearing blue in basketball.
