UGA will get Sherman-pwned in the rankings.

Yeah I thought this was universal knowledge? My friends at UGA (both TLSers) say the campus is all but at a concensus that they're going to drop a few slots because of last year's surprise rankings chaos.

You're not taking into account NYU's downward trend. I'd put them as 6 and Chicago at 5.
Oh whatever. Does anyone have that link to the US News Top 14 rankings since 1990? It shows NYU being 4 or 5 every year going back more than 10 years. Keep dreamin', Chicago troll.

The "Do you have a stadium named after your school?" score multiplier is going to really help Cooley this year.

Here is a link to a slightly more useful visual representation of the changes in rankings over the years.

FWIW, I e-mailed US News, and they said the new rankings will come out on April 15.

That's deposit day. Douchebags. Not that the rankings will change anything for me, but c'mon. Couldn't do it on April 14th? Or April 8th, if they really need a Thursday?

They need time to do their taxes, though if they drop my school in the rankings I hope they get audited.

What? Would you really choose one school over another because they switched places in the rankings from 2009 to 2010?

Not even if a GW-style divebomb happened. T14's not looking like it's going to happen for whatever reason (late apps, dammit), so WUSTL it is.
