Ohio State may have lower admissions requirements than Miami or Ohio, but they are higher than some of the other state universities, such as Youngstown State, Wayne State, Central State, and Akron. The only reason Ohio State has such a high enrollment is because they can’t refuse an in-state applicant!

And good point, UF has increased enrollment while also raising the requirements for enrollment. That is, quite simply, not easy to do. Thank you Jason, it's good to know a little cheesecake goes a long way. And dcdave, as a W&M grad I was a fan of the JMU student body when I was in school. The availability of the women might be the only redeeming quality to JMU. It should be no surprise that somebody named Chris Leak is a Gator.

We default to the other's school depending on the team playing. In my house, we’re either routing for my alma mater, USF, or my husband’s, UCONN.

Be careful pronouncing the second "a". The only reason Ohio State has such a high enrollment is because they can't refuse an in-state applicant! Florida selects only the highest performers and has been actively trying to reduce undergraduate programs becuase of the heavy influence of their graduate programs. Go Gators! The appropriate term is “Tampans”.

Generally root for underdogs and having lived in Tampa for the past two years and my wife Traci being a USF grad, have turned into a Bulls fan as well. As I think Joel said a while back, the home games are a great way to visit RayJay on the cheap. Have had good times at the games we've gone to. If Grothe can stay healthy and some of the younger LBs step up, USF should be good again. As for UCF, our defense was pathetic last year and the warm feelings about having a big name coach like O'Leary is over- he needs to win.
