(IMO - in my opinion)
ummm, ucsb is ranked 10th in the country by us news and world report for physics, and 6th for condensed matter physics. They are a tiny department and admit a handful of students each year. Your schools on your list cover rankings 1-15 pretty well, you might grab something from the 15-25 ranks for your backup.
Here's #'s 1-30 from 2006 us news and world report rankings. Pick a few that sounds good, visit their websites and look for some interesting research projects. Maryland has a big and diverse department.
MIT
Stanford
CalTech
Harvard
Princeton
UC Berkeley
Cornell
U Chicago
U Illinois UC
UC Santa Barbara
Columbia
U Texas Austin
U Michigan

U Maryland CP
UC Los Angeles
