Letran is Letran when it comes to NCAA. Letran always beats San Beda. They tagged Beda as whipping boys of the NCAA. They have to import a player just win the NCAA 2006 Basketball. They have a 28 year title drought. Letran has 16 titles under its belt.
If you will compare Letran and San Beda it will be a mismatch. Letran has the longer streak championship under Samboy Lim.
