Almost the highest. Stanford and Northwestern are tougher on admissions, but they also have more flexibility to allow athletic exceptions than does the flagship state school in Madison.

I can't imagine how much more booze they would be selling if the place was packed.

I'm certain OSU fans donated a lot of money. I heard there were close to 25K of them at Camp Randall.

Seems a bit excessive, in a state that's famous for drinking beer and overeating.

Both of which have absolutely nothing to do with the standing of one of the top universities in the world.

Indeed.  Several of the teams on that list still have to play each other.
