Does #20 LAC (not a specific college, just generally speaking) equate with nationals in the 40-50 range?

That’s like comparing the top 20 New York City pizza joints to the top 20 Chicago pizza joints. You’ll get great pizza at either, but some people like NYC, some like Chicago, and some like both!
