Oregon might be a college town. Not sure - never been. The other three are for sure not college towns.

Penn State
Michigan
Indiana
Purdue
Illinois
Iowa

Those truly feel like college towns. Madison, Nebraska and MSU have a college feel, but maybe are not college towns. No pro teams.

Ohio State
Northwestern
Minnesota

Definitely not college towns. Pro teams.

I've not been to Rutgers or Maryland. Can't make an opinion on those two.

the public schools weren't good there back in the late 90s
It's in Mississippi, so....

i think Austin has outgrown college town.  Honestly it feels more like Nashville or Columbus than Madison to me, and mostly for worse than for better.

does Runza have a rewards program like BWW?

I do like a hot fresh Runza once in a while but I don't eat fast food

BWWs gotta be much healthier

chicken fat with hot sauce and deep fried tots and Bud Heavy outta the tap

I've never heard anyone argue that Columbus is a professional sports town before.

I definitely don't view Lincoln or Madison as college towns anymore.    Too much non Univ growth and development as it's the trough for the pigs as the Capital city, respectively.   

Doesn't make them lesser places just not what I think of as a college town.
