There are many kids in Louisiana that are going to undergrad school at Alabama,

giving away LOTS of money to go there....they have 50% out of state kids...easy entry and they pay. Full ride with a 32/33 or something. Louisiana kid can't get that at LSU, but can at 'bama.

TOPS isn’t paying for those kids to go to LSU anymore?

I have a high school senior... we get stuff weekly from Alabama in the mail since the beginning of summer. We got our first piece of mail from LSU this week... WTF????

Thankfully the senior throws the Alabama shite in the garbage.

Our friend's daughter in south florida just went to bama because she didn't get accepted to any other out of state school she applied to.

Notre Dame and Georgetown are in the 201-300 range with Georgia and Tennessee. I'm pretty sure their alumni are appalled to be grouped with southern state schools.

UAB is in the 201-300, but neither Alabama nor Auburn made top 500.
