Va Tech is also ranked 51. You forgot BC, so it would be 18 to 17. South wins for brains and talent.

If you stopped at 50 and didn't include MD in the South, you'll have significantly different totals.

I don't think Georgetown or Johns Hopkins are in the South neither MD nor DC seceded. . .

According to the US Census, the south is divided into three regions, south atlantic, east south central, west south central.

Not too many people consider Maryland "The South." Not for the last 100 years. And DC is its own little bubble. You should remove Georgetown, UMD, and Johns Hopkins from your "South" bucket.

And, also, who cares?

There are almost as many schools with 5 miles of Boston in the top 50 as the entire midwest. LOL.

Who raised you that you think saying “the south rises” is an okay way to phrase something?

Hopkins and Northwestern are extremely overrated.
