Would you rather your school be ranked #1 in football or academics?

Academic rankings are more mythical and bs than the AP poll

Football.
There's a reason there are only like 2 Vandy fans here.

Academics. You're not going to be successful in life because your team goes to a certain bowl or game

I'd rather be #1 in football, but if it was would you rather have good academics or good football I'd probably choose academics.
And yes, I realize that probably doesn't make a ton of sense.

Alums and sidewalks will obviously have different opinions.

Why not both?

One will have greater life benefits than the other.

The truth of the matter is that very few people here would have gone to school at their SEC Alma Mater if they didn't have a football team to root for.

Academics but OSU fans like yourself would probably say football because your Athletics are more important to you than academics. Which isn't shocking considering you're from Ohio

Who does the academic rankings? Who is number 1 right now?
To me your school's reputation for your particular major/area of study is what matters moreso than an overall ranking. So, as to #1 in football or #1 in the US News and World Report overall rankings (or something similar) give me the #1 in football. At this point in my career, my school's current academic rankings doesn't matter much to me, it's about work experience at this point. If I was still in school or just out, then I might think differently.

Academics hands down, but still with power conference athletics. I wouldn't want us to be like Yale or Cornell.
I'd rather us be like Stanford or Vanderbilt than Alabama or Oklahoma.

I would much rather be #52 (tOSU) than where Alabama is at #96, but this is a dumb thread. Unless you went to an Ivy league school or other high prestigious private school like Stanford, MIT, Duke, Chicago, etc you will not sniff #1.
I would say I'd like to be top 50 academics and #1 in football.

I would rather take a bath with a tub full of electric eels than step foot in that shite hole state called ohio.
