What the hell does this say for Indiana's college teams?

Surprised to see Cincy and Miami that high

As a USC fan, I'm surprised to see them in the top 20.

As a Notre Dame fan I'm shocked they aren't even on this list! How did Miami and Ohio State make this list but Purdue and ND aren't even mentioned. I'm Not surprised with Penn State being No.1, Paterno runs a tight ship over there and knows what's important.

I don't know where HB got his info, but here's a story from espn.com written in November of 2009. According to the story, Notre Dame and Duke are tied for the highest football graduation rate, at 96%, followed by Navy (93), Northwestern (92), Boston College (91) and Vanderbilt (91). Maybe his list includes only state schools?

TCU and USC are private schools, just off the top of my head.
