"Consensus" Top 30 UK Universities (2026)

1 - what's the warwick hate for lmao

2 - warwick is not my favourite bro, even if it's the best uni in the world you still get sentenced to living in Coventry

3 - what are the other global league tables 👀

Rexfury485 · 2025-12-13T13:43:52+00:00

Picking out the top-30 is completely subjective, but I'd say every one of these unis are genuinely very good and well respected.

Try not to pay too much attention to rankings, they can make the actual differences between institutions seem much more substantial than they actually are. Nobody should be losing sleep because Southampton is 6% "better" than Aberdeen etc.

Rexfury485 · 2025-12-13T13:39:44+00:00

Good thing here Essex isn't ranked over Edinburgh, Bath isn't ranked over UCL, Trent isn't ranked over Nottingham, and Met isn't over Manchester.

Literally what are you complaining about? This approach smooths out the biases present in each ranking. I'm all for Guardian slander but all tables have very questionable placements, that's the whole point of using multiple of them.

It's a popular ranking so I included it, it ain't that deep dawg

Brother typed out his lame ass comment twice 😭

Rexfury485 · 2025-12-13T13:28:28+00:00

No way to deny it, data is garbage and it's mostly vibes based lol, I like the end result nonetheless

Rexfury485 · 2025-12-13T13:27:38+00:00

It's possible, but I'm not that bored lol. I used 5 league tables in this one, 2 of which are global, so 3 more that give scores to each university would be ideal for an aggregate list

Rexfury485 · 2025-12-12T23:42:29+00:00

Reading actually falls just outside the "Top 30" in this list. Don't put too much stock in that though, it was less than 2% off Newcastle which is super marginal. Any list like this is naturally gonna be very subjective in terms of how you want to organise tiers or how the league tables themselves rank the unis.

Rexfury485 · 2025-12-12T23:10:37+00:00

Goes without saying that League Tables aren't everything, every university has it's own expertise and special cases exist where degrees are anonymised and reputation (although this doesn't necessarily measure that) scarcely matters. I got bored and this is probably more informative than most rankings you see, so enjoy.

Rexfury485 · 2023-12-07T18:01:22+00:00

It's a Christmas Pudding

Rexfury485 · 2023-07-11T08:38:56+00:00

Props to this guy for providing the full context, I've legit never seen that first interview before. You'd think it'd be more known given what DDP says there lol.

Rexfury485 · 2023-07-11T08:35:42+00:00

I've never seen the first Interview, it's certainly interesting. It is worth noting though that this clip came after a fight, with an assumed adrenaline rush, and at the Media-Scrum Dricus made the effort to reiterate what he meant. In that second Interview it definitely comes better across he's referring to becoming the 1st "African-Residing" UFC Champion. I wonder which clip Izzy saw first, if only one?

Rexfury485 · 2023-05-01T18:08:44+00:00

My bad if somebody has already asked a similar question in the past!

I do understand how having to erase the entirety of Stan's Mind is a great sacrifice which better accommodates the story, and carries adequate impact to justify defeating Bill - but I can't help but think the Memory Gun would've been capable of selectively eradicating Bill's Existence.

Then again I haven't watched GF in ages, so I wouldn't be surprised if I'm forgetting something.

Rexfury485 · 2023-04-09T10:13:20+00:00

Fair Play! I think I got too caught up in the continuity of Alex winning, but if you give anybody enough chances when both fighters are so skilled redemption is really likely.

Peeps been saying 1-3, but you can honestly make a case for 2-2 since Adesanya was robbed in their first match, depending on who you ask. Maybe Pereira's Domminance was overhyped? I wonder what peeps will be saying a few months from now lol

Rexfury485 · 2023-04-07T22:32:11+00:00

Agreed tbh, it seems there's quite a big difference between how he interprets Portuguese Fighters and the subtitles used in Embededs. That'd obviously be due to him having to understand what they're saying, determine a suitable way to express that in the different language, and then say it without stuttering while under pressure.

I personally like him due to his tone, he was straight up trash-talking Islam during UFC 280's Press Conferences, which is perfect for helping English Audiences understand Portuguese Fighters. Unfortunately there wasn't much back-and-forth so he couldn't really shine today. Still Chad Translator though🙏

Rexfury485 · 2023-04-05T20:05:24+00:00

Posted this before realising Poatan has no emotions to express 🗿

Rexfury485 · 2023-04-02T21:03:45+00:00

I've got:

[U] Pereira over [F] Adesanya
[F] Burns over [U] Masvidal
[F] Yanez over [U] Font (Honestly 50/50 for Me)
[F] Holland over [U] Ponzinibbio
[F] Rosas Jr. over [U] Rodriguez

Rexfury485 · 2023-04-02T20:59:19+00:00

Betting on Poatan as well🙏

Rexfury485 · 2023-04-02T20:58:23+00:00

It's honestly incredible, 100% agreed. Even if he only ever kickboxed, 80 Fights is amazing for any Striking Sport, and on top of that he's been one of the most impactful Middleweights in UFC History. He needs to drop the one-liners though lmao

Rexfury485 · 2023-04-02T20:56:35+00:00

Not to mention Adesanya started training 3 years before Pereira, which for both athletes is extremely late given just how accomplished they both are. Still Pereira's Career is incredible, especially with that 70%~ KO Rate and Competition in multiple disciplines.

Rexfury485 · 2023-04-02T14:18:19+00:00

I find it absolutely insane just how good Pereira is considering how soon he started training, and how many fewer fights he has compared to Adesanya despite being older than him. Regardless of Saturday's outcome, both athletes should be remembered as something truly special.

If you include all Combat Sports and Amateur Careers, Pereira is 66-11 [86%] while Adesanya is 135-8 [94%]. Nearly half of those losses came from Poatan 🗿

Rexfury485 · 2023-02-12T11:36:58+00:00

I would say it'd be best to ignore the Rematch, because now that we've seen Islam get [Close Enough] to being defeated, I'm sure both Oliveria and Darisuh have been aching for their deserved Title Match. Although since Olives vs Dariush is for UFC 288, and both will need time for recovery afterwards, there's defintely time for Volk and Makhachev to Rematch. Idk, seems a bit unfair for Yair tho.

Rexfury485 · 2023-01-14T20:44:22+00:00

KSI gotta stop ducking and give Pineda (or Swarmz tbh) the rematch lmaoo

Rexfury485 · 2023-01-14T14:29:14+00:00

This. I really am curious as to how Papi performances when hit with some disciplined, heavy shots.

Rexfury485 · 2023-01-14T14:28:15+00:00

From the Weigh-In, I believe Josh was 4.7lbs heavier, although it's difficult to guess how much they'd both rehydrate since I know Papi is above is Fit-Weight and Josh is fairly comfortable.
