How many of those merit scholars are from Bama? I have no idea and it's not a flame. One of the issues I have with UF now is all the out of state students and foreigners eating up space that should be used for Florida residents first.

Is Bama experiencing the same thing?

I have no idea to be honest. I do know that for the first time in the history of the University there are more out of state students at Bama now than in state I believe. UA has really stepped up recruiting in the wealthy suburbs of Dallas, Nashville, Atlanta, Tampa, etc and it really seems to be paying off.

UF gets a lot of students from Georgia and other southern states. I've got some friends from New York and Texas, and there are some international students. Mostly in state residents though.

Over half of the undergraduate population is from out of state.
