Didn't like the Wall Street Journal list? It took you long enough to find this one.

Once you get past 100 or even 50, does it really matter?

Realistically? No, the Education is almost the same, the difference comes from the extra opportunities you get to apply yourself at a better school.

Everyone calls Auburn the Princeton of East Alabama and I think it's true

As for the rankings, I'm not sure where the SCAR love comes from, but that looks reasonable. Bama cooks the metrics, but they've certainly improved considerably and I think they probably fit in a handful of spots behind where Auburn is in reality.

UTK is also underrated here and should probably be in the tier behind Auburn and Alabama.

For grad school the answer is definitely yes

I mean, going to one middle of the pack SEC school over another doesn't matter that much.

But going to UF instead of Ole Miss matters, sure.

I agree in grad or professional school. A #50 law school is much better than a #100
