IT vs Computer Science degree, which should I get if I have zero interest in creating software and just want to work as an IT, I know which one sounds more appropriate, but I keep hearing CS is the way to go since it opens more doors, opinions?

IT is a job, Computer Science is academic

Do you like math? Like solving discrete problems such as determining the run time of an algorithm or determining thread safety of an algorithm? Perhaps even some calculus in the case of solving recurrence relations?

Or do you like trade skills? Finding the solution by using preexisting tools and flow charts. Diagnostics and maintenance of complex infrastructure similar to a mechanic or a HVAC technician sound good to you?

Both have their place. CS majors learn more about how Red Hat's kernel works but not how to deploy it as an enterprise web server. As far as trades go, IT, from a good school and well rounded certifications, is just as useful to a company as a programmer.

WTF are "Cisco" and "Oracle"?

Those are companies, not skills.

Being familiar with Cisco and Oracle products and knowing how to integrate them into a system and repair/modify/upgrade them is a skill and a half

Nailed it.
Academia is a different story, of course.
