Less of a “flagship” and more of a “tug boat”

So, my undergraduate institution is a state school but not a “flagship” school...it is more like a “tugboat“ in that no one would recognize the school outside of the neighboring states. Within the school it is known for the massive grade deflation (particularly the chemistry department) and I have maintained 4.0 in those classes.

With otherwise good stats/ECs etc. will the undergrad school really matter?

It won’t matter

The undergraduate school, unless it's Harvard (and then it only marginally matters), does not matter.

Hyperbole, but you could go to a community college and they wouldn't care.

It always matters, but generally not as much as anything else. A strong gpa and killer MCAT will get you far out of any school
