I'm sure Bama fans will lose sleep over their academia ranking. Meanwhile, they will continue to skull drag their opponent's on every Saturday for the foreseeable future.

A degree is only worth what you make of it. People get too caught up in these rankings.

Do you think a civil engineering degree from Alabama gets more notoriety than one from Mississippi State? I have a BS and MS in Civil from Alabama. But I readily admit that Miss State is the more well known engineering school. These rankings don’t change that.

Every school teaches the same thing, meaning schools are about jobs. There are maybe 10 schools that will impress companies nation-wide (none of them in the SEC)- these schools can get you a job anywhere. Outside of that, (1) it depends entirely on specialized fields (engineering at TAMU, journalism at Mizzou, etc.) and (2) where you're looking for a job. Graduating from UC Irvine will impress exactly 0 people in Birmingham but graduating from UA will.

Also this list has Berkeley ahead of Stanford, which is a joke. Stanford is one of the schools that will impress everywhere

College football has never been about college at The University of Bubbaball

Thats what Nick Saban knew when he set up his cheating scheme there - there would ALWAYS be more money for bubbaball
