Dispute these as you may but Athlon Sports has issued the rankings for the best and worst college towns around the Big Ten. 

Columbus, Ohio -- Many outside of Ohio wouldn't guess that Columbus is the biggest city in the state. A revitalized downtown offers more to do than most typical college towns. It might be too big for some (voted 10th by one panelist and ninth by two others) but professional sports, nightlife and High Street give the massive fanbase plenty to do while in town. Columbus got three second-place votes. 

Here were the rankings  

  1. Madison, WI
  2. Ann Arbor, MI
  3. State College, PA
  4. Columbus, OH
  5. Bloomington, IN
  6. Iowa City, Iowa
  7. Evanston, IL
  8. East Lansing, MI
  9. Minneapolis, MN
  10. Lincoln, NE
  11. College Park, MD
  12. Champaign, IL
  13. Piscataway, NJ
  14. West Lafayette, IN
