Hey everyone! I do these conference rankings every year so it's finally that time when rosters are more or less set for the upcoming season. However, I find this type of analysis pretty interesting. It would have been too much work to re-classify all these schools, so the Classification on this list is from last year.įinal disclaimer: I think the importance of academic rankings are way overblown and as we've seen (recently with Columbia and Temple) they can and probably are gamed all the time. Because the ARWU rankings are research based, I decided not to do them for the other conferences as most of those schools were simply not listed in the rankings and any average would really not be representative of those conferences.Īlso, new Carnegie Classifications came out this winter (for example I saw that both James Madison and Creighton moved to R2). I think each metric brings something interesting to the comparison.įor the P5 and Ivy League I also included the ARWU rankings. While the rankings below are in order based on average US News ranking, I have also included the WSJ/THE rankings, a breakdown of the conferences’ schools’ Carnegie classifications, and a percentage of the conference that has been admitted to the AAU. I have also included a final list of all the school involved in realignment so far, and a few that are frequently mentioned. I started with a ranking pre-UT and OU leaving for the SEC and below that I have the conferences re-averaged and ordered (by US news average rank) after realignment.

With all the realignment I decided to look at the impact on average academic ranks of the conferences.
