The P12 and ACC are very diverse, the ACC more so. The B12 is has one huge outlier - Texas. There are 58 spots between the B12's first and second school 22 to 80 for Iowa State. That range between one and two are 2 and 6 in the P12, 16 and 17 in the B10, 19 and 26 in the ACC, and 38 to 46 in the SEC.

RE: World University Rankings - CougarRed - 07-18-2014 02:17 AM "Best" is a relative term. Ranked highest in the American using the CWUR methodology? Yes. Ranked ahead of everyone in the Big 12 not named Texas? Yes. RE: World University Rankings - bullet - 07-18-2014 07:59 AM And not all good public schools have football. California dominates the top of the list: 2 Stanford 7 UC-Berkeley 12 Cal Tech 15 UCLA 20 UC-San Diego 27 UC-San Francisco (medical school) 51 USC 57 UC-Davis 60 UC-Santa Barbara 80 UC-Irvine 167 UC-Santa Cruz 222 UC-Riverside 348 San Diego St. All the UC schools except the brand new one at Merced are 222 or higher. Texas actually has more ranked in the top 500 than California (top 500 was as far as I looked) 15-13, but can't match them at the top. 29 Texas 66 UT Southwestern Medical Center (Dallas) 104 UT MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston) 105 Texas A&M 108 Rice 121 Baylor College of Medicine (Houston) 143 UT-Dallas 162 Houston 171 SMU 239 UT Health Science Center San Antonio 256 UT-San Antonio 274 UT Health Science Center Houston 379 UT Medical Branch Galveston 473 Baylor 480 Texas Tech RE: World University Rankings - loki_the_bubba - 07-18-2014 09:31 AM (07-18-2014 07:59 AM)bullet Wrote: And not all good public schools have football. California dominates the top of the list: Another difference is that the Texas schools include six pure medical schools, California only one. Pulling those out and the Cali is back ahead. RE: World University Rankings - jrj84105 - 07-18-2014 11:16 AM One thing that stands out is that the AAC is not far behind the BigXII in this ranking system-if it's behind at all. Any of the hypothetical AAC/MWC "best of" conferences might even be closer to the ACC than to the BigXII. A lot gets made of AAU status, but this ranking system and the ARWU ranking system both give the appearance that Kansas and ISU are not in great shape for retaining that membership if further reductions are made. RE: World University Rankings - goofus - 07-18-2014 01:24 PM What jumps out immediately is that the B10 and SEC are extremely homogenous leagues. The P12 and ACC are very diverse, the ACC more so. The B12 is has one huge outlier - Texas. There are 58 spots between the B12's first and second school 22 to 80 for Iowa State. That range between one and two are 2 and 6 in the P12, 16 and 17 in the B10, 19 and 26 in the ACC, and 38 to 46 in the SEC. [/quote] The Big Ten has 1 big outlier. Nebraska. 2nd lowest is Iowa at #63 in USA rankings and Nebraska the lowest in Big Ten at #125.

There are 58 spots between the B12's first and second school 22 to 80 for Iowa State.The B1G and PAC have a similar range, but the B1G schools are mostly clustered around their mean (one low outlier in Nebraska) whereas the PAC schools have 3 high outliers (Furd, Cal, and UCLA) and three low outliers (WSU, OU, OSU). The ACC has a much broader range than both the PAC and the B1G but has a similar distribution of high and low outliers at the extreme ends of their range as the PAC.
