U.S. News put one out too. LSU is #87.

Take all these rankings, including USN&WR, Forbes, and all the rest with a grain of salt....they all use different criteria....there's not much difference between the top 10 to top 20 schools in reality, even the lower ranked schools are still very, very good.

These rankings are meant to be a media-marketing tool for the magazine or organization that ranks them. Don't take them too seriously.
