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.

The ivy league does not award athletic scholarships. So there would never be a generally accepted #1 academic institution that could ever have this option.

There are academic schools that do well in football but it's been a while since Stanford, Cal, Northwestern Vandy Duke etc been #1 in football at season's end.
