Lexus Gauntlet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lexus Gauntlet, sponsored by Lexus, are year-long all-sports competitions between two sets of Pacific-10 Conference universities in California that are major sports rivals. There is a Southern version between UCLA and USC, as well as a Northern version between Stanford and Cal. A victory in NCAA-sanctioned sports competition between the rival schools earns the school points towards the final count. For example, in 2006, a single football victory is worth 10 points; while all head-to-head Men's water polo victories count as a series and the series is worth 5 points.
