It is pretty comparable to Nebraska, so while it will be well below 13 members of the Big 10, it won't be well below all of them. The AAU's own rankings when they kicked Nebraska out had OU at 91 when Nebraska was 105. Nebraska is a little ahead in the latest ARWU and WUR rankings.

I think the issue Bullet is that OU would be about 6th or 7th in the SEC academically and at best 14th in a 15 member Big 10 and 15th in a 16 member Big 10 and possibly last. Furthermore the sports fit isn't great overall. So if we are arguing over who is last or next to last that isn't much of an argument.
