The Titans, Preds and a host of college sports teams helped make Nashville 16th on the this year's Sporting News list of Best Sports Cities.

The annual ranking is based on 12-month snapshot of each city’s sports. It puts a heavy premium on regular-season won-lost records, playoff berths, bowl appearances and tournament bids.

It also takes into account championships, applicable power ratings, quality of competition, fan fervor and other factors.

The No. 1 Sports City on the list of 150 was Detroit, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, Mich.

The Sporting News says Detroit-area sports teams “reflect the show-up-for-work-everyday-and-punch-the-clock roots” of the city.
