That would be true, if it was true, but its not.

I know you said all are at sticker, but what is sticker for each of these? Can you get instate at IU after the 1st year? I know at Wisc its next to impossible. I think this comes down to how debt averse you are or aren't. I'd agree with others that its UW=Wake>IUB, especially if you are using Big Law placement as a gauge, but the difference isn't that big. Not sure about Wake, but Wisco churns out quite a few PI lawyers.

Diploma privilege is huge, but only if you want to stay in Wisco. I would vote Wisco simply for the reason that diplome privilege is awesome and Wisco dominates its state.

This decision turns on personal preference. Do you want to live & work in North Carolina, Indiana or Wisconsin ?

Then you need to either go to different schools or accept that that probably won't happen right out of these schools.

Wisconsin. Normally I'd say Wake, but I think if you get your first job in Wisconsin, you don't have to take the bar.

+1. A lot of stress off you if you don't need to study for the bar exam.

Seriously....you're not gonna do that very easily (at all!) from these schools.
Consider applying to BU, BC, and Northeastern for MA, and Hastings, Davis, Pepperdine and Loyola for CA.
See where you get the best deal.
