This will make Clemson fans very unhappy, which makes me happy.

The Virginia state universities are excellent as a group. Some great private schools as well.

There's no way a reasonable Clemson fan/alumnus expected to make this list.

Well UGA and Florida really are the top schools in the SEC. Vandy if your strictly about academics. I always enjoy the refutes about the tamu school and sometimes the dumb gump who pretends to know something about their University but nothing is going to change the fact that UGA and UF put forth the best all around universities when it comes to athletics, academics, and opportunity.

USMA isn't a public school. It's a fully government-subsidized tool factory.

The very fact that none of the academies offer masters or doctorate programs should disqualify them from this list, like it does with USWNR not classifying them as "major colleges and universities" but "liberal arts colleges" instead.

Georgia seems out of place compared to the rest of the schools on the list.

I take that back...the coast guard academy is also on there. Terrible list.

U of Delaware is not a fricking better school than Penn State or Texas A&M

Cal Tech at 33? Jesus Christ. Sometimes you just have to throw whatever numbers you're using away and go by name

They aren't reasonable. I said it in one of the recent "rival school hate" threads and I'll say it again. It's not hard to find Clemson supporters who think they are as good on the football field as 'Bama and ND and are as good in the classroom as Ivy League schools.

Hell, the school has admitted to changing school policies just to manipulate their rankings on that US News Rankings list that everyone holds in such high esteem.

You should probably get with the times. UGA is a great school, and is only getting better. It's like night and day compared to the early 90s.

And you're a Missouri fan. Sorry my school is better than yours.
