The only team close is Vandy and it's not close.

Vanderbilt would be in the lower tier of Ivy League schools in academics but upper tier in athletics.

Not a bad thread to end the off season.

(Harvard and Old Mississippi were my safety schools.)

Serious answer to your highly technical question:

Yes, the SEC is better than a single person getting into an Ivy League school.

Cornell is the only Ivy with a vet program. Three Sec schools have as-good vet programs.

Thats one example where an sec vs ivy academics argument could go to sec.

I could probably think of other examples.

It's not about the education, it is about the networks you build by going to those institutions. I'm thinking Vandy may be pretty good. A&M is the closest you will probably ever get from a public institution.

You do realize the red blood conservatives being selected by their party for the highest offices are getting their educations at these same universities? Right?

None.

Vanderbilt is the top academic school in SEC, but it would not be equivalent to Ivy league, Stanford, The Claremont Colleges, NYU and some others.

Any of the SEC schools would provide a meaningful education for most of us, and some specific degree programs are very highly regarded for each institution.
