I say we break it out by Universities, the University of Florida sent 37 to the Games, USC sent 40.

Interesting bit of information there. I wonder if there has ever been a U.S. Summer Olympic contingent where USC was not the #1 or #2 university among the competitors.

Final: as of Aug. 12 Contact: Pete LaFleur (editor@collegesports360.com)

The University of Southern California – led by its traditional strength in swimming (10 medals) and track-and-field (6) – finished atop CollegeSports360’s exclusive “college medal board” for the 2012 Olympics with 24 total medals (12 gold, 9 silver & 3 bronze). USC’s other medals included four in women’s water polo, three women’s volleyball (two of those on the beach) and a women’s soccer medal. The University of Florida (21; 9G-6S-6B) finished second on this medal board (11-swim, 6-T&F, 3-wsoc, 1-w. tennis) while bay-area rivals California (16; 11G-1S-4B) and Stanford (16; 12G-2S-2B) tied for third. USC and Stanford ended up even for the most golds (12), followed by Cal’s 11 and Florida’s 9.
