I think this is correct. Academically, Texas too starting next year. If Athens is the draw Ole Miss in Oxford, but the academics are going to be at the opposite end of the SEC spectrum from UGA



Why TX next year?


Because that's when they're joining the SEC

+1
Very similar schools outside of geography. Wisconsin may have a slight edge on national reputation.

UGA is similar to Wisconsin in all academics. Why would you think otherwise? If it's "below" it's negligible.

Wisconsin a great school but still a large state school along the same lines as the others. They appear more selective because they get more apps from all over and take more OOS.

Pros and cons to each, depending on major. Pro to UW- Lake/hockey Pro to UGA- weather/football
I would never pick one over the other based on academics only location, vibe, etc.

+1 Clearly UGA has caught Wisconsin. Michigan is still marginally better.

It is probably the best public in the SEC. When it comes to academics, it's:

Vandy

TX/GA/FLA

Auburn/A&M

Everyone Else (not you Mississippi State)


Mississippi State


South Carolina/Tennessee

Everyone Else


South Carolina and Tennessee are no better than any other SEC school, please. I wouldn’t even put Auburn up there.

Vanderbilt
Florida
Texas
Georgia

Everyone Else

Miss State, Arkansas

Maybe 10 years ago, times have changed. Research the current CDS before spreading outdated information.

Texas is stronger than UF. Arkansas is no weaker than Bama or Ole Miss.
