McCombs vs Fuqua (MBA) - Management Consulting

Hi All,

I was fortunate enough to get accepted into the MBA programs above. I know that overall Duke places very well into MBB/Tier 2 and is the obvious choice in a vacuum, the "twist" is my goal is to end up in Austin/Dallas full time. 

While not at the level of Duke, it seems McCombs is still a strong MBA program for exits into consulting, but wanted to hear opinions on if there is an obvious choice here or if both would provide equal opportunity to break into management consulting. Thanks in advance!
