Yep. Def the #2 SEC town for me. My top 5 nationally, and I have been to a ton, are:
Been to all and agree they're all great.
Annapolis is awesome.
Fort Collins is pretty neat.
Annapolis is very cool, but does it really change much when Navy has a home game? If not, this would fall into the same category as Vandy and Nashville and many other cities across the country.

you're right. awful was indeed a bad word choice. for obvious reasons, it just never felt like a college town. everything was rather spread out.

I understand it's Cambridge but I would just group that with Boston.

Boston is the world's largest college town. There are 35 colleges and universities in the city with over 150,000 total students. Part of why Boston is such a cool city.

While not a true college town, the shittiest City in the SEC is Baton Rouge. It's New Orleans, without any of the charm. Just the crime and corruption.

Didn't really check out the city, but the campus in Oxford is really beautiful. Has a nice, compact feel compared to sprawling campuses like Tuscaloosa.

Tuscaloosa's metro hasn't grown much, but the city itself has grown 26% since 2000. Going from 78k to nearly 100k is pretty good.
