Most importantly, 12 spots higher than UCF.

While that's a bonus, I wouldn't say it's more important.

Well, we are tied with UL, so that's one less excuse for USF not being allowed membership into the ACC

 

We are also ahead of WVU and the same thing applies to their Big 12 conference.

Any day now... we will break 100 in the national category

I despise USNWR, if I become filthy rich ever I'm going to buy them just to close the business.

 

Or, I guess I could use my considerable clout to cheat the process and make USF #1.

 

It's a good enough resource for an undergraduate college kid looking at schools, it's not something the ACC or B12 is going to even remotely cite when considering a new member.

 .... our ranking is much better on USNWR than on Forbes!

AAU affiliation or bust!

How does one climb the rankings? It's seems pretty arbitrary to me.
