If you were to rank the states based on which one has the best two public universities (by whatever measure you choose), obviously California wins by miles with Cal and UCLA. There isn't even a hint of competition.
So why would you choose the state you did as second place? feel free, of course, to make a ranking list.
The poll is designed to try (I don't know if I succeeded) in including the likely contenders although I certainly could have left some off the list.
How is Georgia getting so many votes? I get Georgia Tech but UGA is well below Michigan State and William & Mary. This should actually only come down to Michigan and Virginia. Well, a little support for Pennsylvania is reasonable, but UGA has a long way to go before it is the same level as the #2 in Michigan or Virginia, and maybe Pennsylvania as well.
And oh yeah, California is clearly #1 with a bullet.

Yeah, I was going to say that Michigan is a sleeper in regards to the topic.
With NY, I dare say that you could replace Stony Brook with University of Buffalo, depending on the publication/list. Or even with the top CUNY school.
