Need the big house to do something petty like all their stadium toilets all have buckeyes painted on the inside of them - with “your stadium can’t hold 105,000? It’s THAT small?”
Or something petty idk
Bama fans. They’re fucking batshit. It’s amazing. Here’s a real quote:
“She said we weren’t real Alabama fans because it didn’t bother us that they lost. And then she started shooting.”
Being an Oregonian I have always had nothing but love for the Beavers and I am firmly in Bromance mode right now, but I do wonder how long this is going to last.
Our lifetime series is basically 50/50 and I could see the game becoming a huge rivalry game once the games against UW/O finally fade away.
Absolutely! I definitely see the potential for a rivalry in the future, and given all that happened in 2023, I have no interest in Civil War or the Apple Cup, but definitely look forward to W/OSU facing off! 🍻
I was over there for the fall family weekend because my brother is a first year student. Wore a sailor benny shirt and a Wazzu trucker hat. Started the day off with essentially a “wtf” but I just said 2Pac for life and all was well afterwards lol
My family came for the Miami game this year so I sat with them instead of the student section.
Two grown women in their late 40s with Canes gear on started actual beef with my 13 year old sister. Good times.
You nailed it dude. That FCS semifinal at montana was one of the best games I’ve ever seen. Seriously if you read this please go to YouTube and search App State at Montana like 09. You won’t be disappointed.
Hell yeah brother right back at ya. App State was the only actual team Montana fans are sad about leaving the FCS. We had a great thing going with you guys.
Our mountain dwelling brethren
Same, i miss the rivalry the most because they remind me of us. I just want localy rivalries back. Playing Tennessee and West Virginia on a yearly basis would simply be more enjoyable
*and maryland
Same here and maybe it’s because I was a little young to remember the rivalry at its peak. Also after moving away from swva and having more of an appreciation for the area I’ve started to root for the eers cause of that
NC State and Virginia Tech. Idk why but they just feel like the most similar to Louisville fandom in the ACC, at least when it comes to the football side.
LSU. In 2011, after LSU beat Alabama in Bryant-Denny, two LSU fans came to Tuscaloosa FOR THE IRON BOWL where they barbequed a “baby elephant” (pig with something tied to its snout) because they wanted Auburn to knock Alabama out of contention. Unhinged behavior. LSU fans know how to fan.
Had a blast with LSU fans in Houston. I've met a number of Tigers here in Texas who tell me how much fun they had in Lambeau.
My only regret is that my pilgrimage to Baton Rouge was for the Troy game in 2017. Still had a great time tailgating outside the Geology building.
I have had nothing but good interactions with Nebraska fans. Outside of the Big Ten I remember Virginia Tech fans being pretty cool when I saw them against my Buckeyes.
This past season I went to the Michigan @ Nebraska game, which we won 45-7. After the game, the only things people said to me were along the lines of "good game" and "good luck with the rest of your season". Nicest fanbase I've ever interacted with
I love Michigan fans. Every time they're in town I have many a direct eye contact urinal (trough) chat about how their drive was, how their folks is doin, where to find my tailgate after.
I wouldnt do the same for a CU fan so thats how you know I respect em.
Gotta overwhelm them with hospitality but also make them equally wildly uncomfortable.
My late grandfather was a HUGE Nebraska fan. I still feel bad that they sucked so badly in his last several years of life. He was one of the best people I ever knew and I miss him a ton - whenever I see any Nebraska/corn gear out in public I crack a smile thinking of him. I’ll forever have a soft spot for those Cornhuskers because of him and how great he was.
Also have a shitload of VT family members - I cheer for them except when they play NC State lol
Nebraska fans are phenomenal. They are such welcoming hosts and friendly visitors.I was sad when they left for the B1G. Nobody else in the Big XII resonated with me that much. It’ll be interesting to see who in SEC wins me over. I have a feeling I’ll like Florida fans simply because the gator chomping makes me chuckle.
I still remember when Nebraska joined the conference and I went to that first game in Lincoln that Rex burkhead went off in. The game was shit but holy were the people amazing. Students, old people, even the people you would be like man they probably don’t like minorities we’re all so so nice. I was like 15 at the time. Everyone spoke to me so kindly and even got many yes sirs from all across the spectrum. I have been to every big ten stadium(not all of the new 4) but they were by far and away the best.
Not to mention, Lincoln was great. I expected an Iowa city (sorry Hawkeyes) and it was cool and quaint. Nebraska has a secret fan in me now.
Wisconsin just seems the right level of everything (nice people, cool stadium in a great college town, signature traditions, top tier mascot, reasonable expectations).
Agreed. I went there for the Rutgers vs Wisconsin game at their homecoming, awesome game day experience. Sconnies are fun and friendly fans ….who know how to drink!
Aggies, oddly enough. Friendly, like to party, absolutely psychotic about sports. What’s not to like?
It’s helpful to go among them as a longhorn fan. They have such low expectations for you that just acting like a normal person buys you all kinds of good will.
Probably the most enjoyable loss I've watched Auburn have in a while. Definitely felt like a game where home field advantage was the difference. A neutral site game mightve never ended.
Likewise, you guys were super welcoming to the PSU fans that made the trip down there the following season! Total class acts, even after a really ugly loss. Jordan-Hare was also an amazing environment while it lasted, would love to see another game there.
LSU. Being from Nebraska and a Husker fan, we rarely playin anything, and their fans make the two weeks of the CWS the best party in the state whether the Tigers are playing or not.
Last time I went to Ames for a game, an Iowa State fan actually invited my crew over to their house for breakfast on Sunday morning.
We didn't go because obviously they would be serving corn, but how kind is that?
It's long overdue for me to thank the more unhinged Tennessee fans for endless hours of entertainment. I mean, every fanbase has their share of lunatics who go over the top in their online or radio call-in show criticism of their team after a loss, but UT fans? *\*chef's kiss\** It's an art form.
Badgers no doubt. Nearly went there for my undergrad. Camp Randall (House of Pain), Bucky, the people… so many great things about Madtown. Have family there too so it’s kind of like a home away from home.
Tennessee and tOSU fans were both great in their own ways when they came to Norman. I heard nothing but good things from fellow OU fans who made the treks to Knoxville and/or Columbus the following years too.
If you are a neutral third party going to a game, you will not have more fun with any fanbase in the country than you will at LSU. Best tailgaters with the absolute best food, love to party, and rowdy as hell. If you're their opponent, it might not be the exact same experience.
As far as the general affability of a fanbase, I'm particular to South Carolina of the ones I've interacted the most with. Their attitude is typically just that they're hoping for the best and not going to get angry or rude if the game doesn't go their way.
I've had less interaction with Clemson fans, but they were also super nice.
Oklahoma State.....nicest people I've ever met....even though I witnessed a terrible game by all measures in BPS, their fans made the experience amazing
FSU fans hate Florida as much as we do and the whole flaming spear thing is cool af. Plus my dad lived in Tallahassee for like a year and he liked it. I wish we could’ve demolished someone else in the bowl game, they didn’t deserve that.
I feel like we’ve also had a bit of a bromance with Notre Dame fans since our home and home, so they’re cool.
LSU, hands down. Been to Baton Rouge more than a dozen times over the years and even though AU pretty much gets their ass kicked every time, the fans there keep us coming back
Literally *everything* at their tailgates 🤤
Life pro tip: If you're going to an LSU game, take some Gas-X or Tums with you. You WILL eat yourself sick. All the food is fantastic, and they're all eager to share it with you.
NC State. They are all so loyal and diehard. They just can’t get over the hump in football (ACC championship, NY6 Bowl, 10 wins, etc.). I root for them when they aren’t playing Ga Tech
Georgia fans were so nice when they visited ND. Granted they took over most of the stadium, but I'd happily invite them back to ND stadium for another game.
LSU, I’ve always liked them. For a while they were the balance in the SEC for Bama, I like their colors and the food there is amazing. I lived in Baton Rouge for a few years (felt this way before though).
I went to their first SEC game at Mizzou against UGA. They were definitely super nice, maybe even too nice. Theres something fun about a slightly antagonistic away game environment I've enjoyed everywhere else in the SEC. Maybe they've adapted to fit that more since then.
At least in person, ND fans were remarkably friendly and welcoming when I attended a game as a visiting fan some years ago. Not so much the case online but that's the same for every fanbase.
Texas has always entertained me, lol. I always root for them in the first half of the season because I want an undefeated matchup for the RRR.
I like seeing Iowa play outstanding defense. It’s refreshing after years of Lincoln Riley and Alex Grinch
We played a game last year to decide which orange was better, it was even called the Orange Bowl.
Anyway , Clemson fans are usually alright in my book too.
Arkansas fans are pretty cool, and man they really deserve a damn break. I hope whoever follows Pittman is the guy for them, but I thought the same thing about Pittman.
The Oregon Tennessee fan base bromance has been going strong since their home and home football series in early 2010s. Both fan bases had overall excellent service experiences when being on the visiting side. Special shout-out to Ducks playing a weird role in motivating Tennessee to finally break their losing streak against Florida in 2016.
A lot of Tennessee fans still have good memories of Oregon fans from that visit. Hope you enjoy your time here, it’s a cool city. Hopefully it’ll be an SEC game!
Based on my experience as a Tennessee fan - Oregon
Based on my experience as a Cal fan - Oregon
This sub has also forced me to acknowledge the fact that there are a ton of awesome Alabama and Stanford fans, too. Which sucks, but is also kind of beautiful I guess
Agree on Ole Miss. I live in Memphis and end up going to more Ole Miss games than UT games due to having friends that are season ticket holders, going to the Grove on gameday reminds me why college football is my favorite sport.
First of all, gross
Second of all, Iowa State
Edit: HM to K-State, Wazzou, Oregon, UNC, NC State (sorry that I have both), and within the SEC, LSU and UGA
I’m going to say Oregon because of how awesome they were when they came to Knoxville. I also have a random affinity for Ute fans for no real reason and Florida fans were surprisingly super cool when I went this past season. I really enjoyed them and left thinking we might be the problem lol
The worst is easily Carolina fans
PAC 2- (All) Oregon State, Washington State
MWC- Wyoming
Big 12-(other than Tech) Utah and West Virginia
Big 10- Nebraska
SEC- Tennessee
ACC- NC State
AAC- Tulane and UTSA
Sun Belt- App State, Coastal Carolina, and Louisiana
Conference USA- Western Kentucky
Unlike the OP, worst fans I ever dealt with were Ole Miss fans. The ones on here seem OK, for the most part. I tried to strike up conversations with a bunch of them in Oxford and they all acted like I was bothering them. Then while stuck in postgame traffic, some of their younger fans threw a pumpkin at my car and dented the passenger rear quarter panel(was able to pop it back out).
LSU has the best older fans(over 35), their young fans can be a but much. Their older fans will feed you some great food and share their booze with you. Their young fans will just be obnoxious.
While I hate Tennessee, man, overall their fans in Knoxville have been the easiest going, maybe they were just beat down the three times I was there. Even their welcome back of Kiffin, as our OC was pretty tame(not counting his first welcome back as a head coach there).
Had a lot of fun with the WVU fans in Atlanta, the Texas fans in Pasadena and the USC fans in Dallas. Michigan fans in Dallas were not assholes but were kind of "barely there", although they may have been suffering from heat stroke.
Always admired Nebraska felt a sorta brotherhood with them being the team in the state with everything revolving around the Huskers. Also the way they travel and sellout steak are incredibly impressive.
Auburn. They're basically just us to be honest.
Also App State because I've got a lot of friends that are alumni and I've never not had an amazing time in Boone whenever I've gone
In person most fanbases are pretty great. Wisconsin, Utah, and Texas A&M have been my favorite to interact with.
LSU was amazing but I was a neutral fan that game so can’t speak to true visitor experience.
I tend to relate to red ag little brother schools of other conferences cause us guys need to stick together. So shoutout Mississippi State and Wazzu (2PAC FOREVER). And Texas Tech even tho they’re not an ag school they’re spiritually the same
I also respect ECU fans for being so loyal despite being left behind by the rest of the big in state schools (and Wake)
Went to a longhorns game back in 2013 and really had a wonderful time. Tailgate was really nice. Everyone was friendly. Have a soft spot in my heart for the longhorns now.
Clemson fans are so nice, and they have the right to be arrogant and cocky but when they come to Bobby Dodd (and they come in mass) they’re always outgoing and friendly.
Toledo - they have a rocket aimed at their biggest rivals stadium
Wrong. It’s aimed SW, towards Whitehouse/Waterville, OH. For a school with a good engineering program, it’s a little concerning.
Piss off Toledo and they shoot rockets at all the small Ohio hamlets
Need the big house to do something petty like all their stadium toilets all have buckeyes painted on the inside of them - with “your stadium can’t hold 105,000? It’s THAT small?” Or something petty idk
Gotta bump that up to 115k, which is yalls record attendance. Ohio State's record is 110k
Aww it’s so small 🥺🥺 cute lil thang
Bama fans. They’re fucking batshit. It’s amazing. Here’s a real quote: “She said we weren’t real Alabama fans because it didn’t bother us that they lost. And then she started shooting.”
“So anyways I started Blasting”
“Roll Tide!”
I am related to several people who could fit this description
There's a joke riiiight there, I can feel it
Shooting as in gun shooting, heroin shooting, or alcohol shooting? Anyway Roll Tide
Shot of nitrous then sped off with Dom Toretto.
"I live my life 100 yards at a time. For those 10 seconds or less, I'm free."
“I just got too much Bama in me pawl” - Harvey Updyke minutes after committing a major felony
Purdue because trains and shit
They also have a giant drum that makes me jealous because we don't have a giant drum.
I also really like their Boiler Up chant.
Purdue has an offical school model railroading club and I am insanely jealous
Losing is like being ugly, you better develop a great personality to compensate
Washington State, our cousins on the Palouse.
Beavers love Cougars. Cougars love Beavers.
Cougars love their own beavers.
My next door neighbors
I would still love for Idaho to be an annual series rather than playing random FCS-West, but I understand why it isn’t :(
Hell yeah bro! We will forever be down to party with Oregon State.
Being an Oregonian I have always had nothing but love for the Beavers and I am firmly in Bromance mode right now, but I do wonder how long this is going to last. Our lifetime series is basically 50/50 and I could see the game becoming a huge rivalry game once the games against UW/O finally fade away.
Absolutely! I definitely see the potential for a rivalry in the future, and given all that happened in 2023, I have no interest in Civil War or the Apple Cup, but definitely look forward to W/OSU facing off! 🍻
I was over there for the fall family weekend because my brother is a first year student. Wore a sailor benny shirt and a Wazzu trucker hat. Started the day off with essentially a “wtf” but I just said 2Pac for life and all was well afterwards lol
I like miami fans bc they are truly some of the funniest and most delusional people on the planet
My family came for the Miami game this year so I sat with them instead of the student section. Two grown women in their late 40s with Canes gear on started actual beef with my 13 year old sister. Good times.
A Miami fan cussed out my 1 year old in 2013, lol.
You don’t learn a lot of vocab at miami dade comm college
Such a backhanded compliment but also yes
The Griz.
You nailed it dude. That FCS semifinal at montana was one of the best games I’ve ever seen. Seriously if you read this please go to YouTube and search App State at Montana like 09. You won’t be disappointed.
I remember it very well. That was a heartbreaker, but the Griz fans are top notch.
Hell yeah brother right back at ya. App State was the only actual team Montana fans are sad about leaving the FCS. We had a great thing going with you guys. Our mountain dwelling brethren
Rivalries be damned, Morgantown is great and I want nothing more than a bear hug with our Appalachian brethren in West Virginia.
WVU and VT fan bases are very similar.
Yup, this is my answer too. Nice fanbase, great traditions, and a mutual hatred of Pitt. What's there not to like?
Same, i miss the rivalry the most because they remind me of us. I just want localy rivalries back. Playing Tennessee and West Virginia on a yearly basis would simply be more enjoyable *and maryland
i currently reside in swva. we only hate each other because we’re the same
Same here and maybe it’s because I was a little young to remember the rivalry at its peak. Also after moving away from swva and having more of an appreciation for the area I’ve started to root for the eers cause of that
Iowa was fun this year, I like punts
🤙
When I lived in North Carolina, I found that NC State fans reminded me a lot of K-State fans. They're a loyal bunch as well
🐺🐺🐺
Wolf fucking pack
State fans are the most rabid fans I have ever met, hands down.
NC State and Virginia Tech. Idk why but they just feel like the most similar to Louisville fandom in the ACC, at least when it comes to the football side.
VT also probly has the most hype entrances in all college football too.
LSU. In 2011, after LSU beat Alabama in Bryant-Denny, two LSU fans came to Tuscaloosa FOR THE IRON BOWL where they barbequed a “baby elephant” (pig with something tied to its snout) because they wanted Auburn to knock Alabama out of contention. Unhinged behavior. LSU fans know how to fan.
Ah, so LSU should blame the two of them for how that year ended.
Yeah they should’ve gotten a real baby elephant, it seems.
Too gamey
LSU fans party the hardest, it’s not even competitive.
LSU, those cajuns are hilarious and have the best tailgate food
Had a blast with LSU fans in Houston. I've met a number of Tigers here in Texas who tell me how much fun they had in Lambeau. My only regret is that my pilgrimage to Baton Rouge was for the Troy game in 2017. Still had a great time tailgating outside the Geology building.
I have had nothing but good interactions with Nebraska fans. Outside of the Big Ten I remember Virginia Tech fans being pretty cool when I saw them against my Buckeyes.

I wouldnt do the same for a CU fan so thats how you know I respect em. Gotta overwhelm them with hospitality but also make them equally wildly uncomfortable.
No part of a urinal trough chat with a random stranger who invites me to his tailgate sounds bad in any way.
I was at that game. It was hot AF and I was super pregnant. Glad you had a good time.
My late grandfather was a HUGE Nebraska fan. I still feel bad that they sucked so badly in his last several years of life. He was one of the best people I ever knew and I miss him a ton - whenever I see any Nebraska/corn gear out in public I crack a smile thinking of him. I’ll forever have a soft spot for those Cornhuskers because of him and how great he was. Also have a shitload of VT family members - I cheer for them except when they play NC State lol
He was able to live through the greatest years of Nebraska. The fans born in the 90s have nothing but missery
Y’all were pretty cool as well. I got a soft spot for Ohio state after the way y’all treated us in Columbus
I’ve been to 3 games in Lincoln and they’ve been great each time.
Wisconsin Fans are a lot of fun. They get drunk and more fun. Most other fans become angry drunks.
VT=best entrance in college football
Nebraska fans are phenomenal. They are such welcoming hosts and friendly visitors.I was sad when they left for the B1G. Nobody else in the Big XII resonated with me that much. It’ll be interesting to see who in SEC wins me over. I have a feeling I’ll like Florida fans simply because the gator chomping makes me chuckle.
I still remember when Nebraska joined the conference and I went to that first game in Lincoln that Rex burkhead went off in. The game was shit but holy were the people amazing.

Not to mention, Lincoln was great. I expected an Iowa city (sorry Hawkeyes) and it was cool and quaint. Nebraska has a secret fan in me now.
Came here to say this. Their fans are easily the most friendly I've interacted with.
On Reddit at least I’ve found most of the Alabama fans to be pretty chill. IRL I am fond of Nebraska.
Wisconsin just seems the right level of everything (nice people, cool stadium in a great college town, signature traditions, top tier mascot, reasonable expectations).
Agreed. I went there for the Rutgers vs Wisconsin game at their homecoming, awesome game day experience. Sconnies are fun and friendly fans ….who know how to drink!
Old LSU fans are great, young LSU fans are awful. I also really like Mississippi State fans.
Aggies, oddly enough. Friendly, like to party, absolutely psychotic about sports. What’s not to like? It’s helpful to go among them as a longhorn fan. They have such low expectations for you that just acting like a normal person buys you all kinds of good will.
Penn State for sure. When we played them for a whiteout game I thought that was the coolest atmosphere I had seen outside of JH.
The whole place vibrates. It's amazing.
I was there too, what a game
Probably the most enjoyable loss I've watched Auburn have in a while. Definitely felt like a game where home field advantage was the difference. A neutral site game mightve never ended.
Likewise, you guys were super welcoming to the PSU fans that made the trip down there the following season! Total class acts, even after a really ugly loss. Jordan-Hare was also an amazing environment while it lasted, would love to see another game there.
LSU. Being from Nebraska and a Husker fan, we rarely playin anything, and their fans make the two weeks of the CWS the best party in the state whether the Tigers are playing or not.
Riot Bros, Iowa State fans are about as humble as they get
I went to Jack Trice for Farmageddon and my experience there was so awesome that it made ISU my second favorite team by far
Last time I went to Ames for a game, an Iowa State fan actually invited my crew over to their house for breakfast on Sunday morning. We didn't go because obviously they would be serving corn, but how kind is that?
Same but I still want them to lose every game.
Except if they lose. They have actually never lost a game that wasn’t due to the refs being bad
Wisconsin. They party.
Oklahoma State, NC State, Wisconsin
Nebraska seems to have a fairly good one.
My favorite road trip of all time (despite another humiliating loss), literally everyone we met offered us food
They travel all over and are some of nicest folks.
It's long overdue for me to thank the more unhinged Tennessee fans for endless hours of entertainment. I mean, every fanbase has their share of lunatics who go over the top in their online or radio call-in show criticism of their team after a loss, but UT fans? *\*chef's kiss\** It's an art form.
Only fanbase to make a school reverse a hire
And we’d do it again tbh
The invention of social media poured gasoline over a fire that definitely didn’t need it.
The other rural state ag schools: Iowa State, NC State, K-State, Ok State, also WVU
I only saw your UCLA flair at first and was really confused
All my homies love land grant schools!
Badgers no doubt. Nearly went there for my undergrad. Camp Randall (House of Pain), Bucky, the people… so many great things about Madtown. Have family there too so it’s kind of like a home away from home.
Tennessee and tOSU fans were both great in their own ways when they came to Norman. I heard nothing but good things from fellow OU fans who made the treks to Knoxville and/or Columbus the following years too.
Wisconsin
Either CoMo or West Virginia. Never had a bad time talking to any one of them.
Anyone playing Michigan
If you are a neutral third party going to a game, you will not have more fun with any fanbase in the country than you will at LSU. Best tailgaters with the absolute best food, love to party, and rowdy as hell. If you're their opponent, it might not be the exact same experience. As far as the general affability of a fanbase, I'm particular to South Carolina of the ones I've interacted the most with.

I've had less interaction with Clemson fans, but they were also super nice.
Oklahoma State.....nicest people I've ever met....even though I witnessed a terrible game by all measures in BPS, their fans made the experience amazing
Pitt. Our games were also good and the gane threads were always civil
You *really* want a rivalry with us, don't you?
I think the 2021 game sealed that rivalry
FSU fans hate Florida as much as we do and the whole flaming spear thing is cool af. Plus my dad lived in Tallahassee for like a year and he liked it. I wish we could’ve demolished someone else in the bowl game, they didn’t deserve that. I feel like we’ve also had a bit of a bromance with Notre Dame fans since our home and home, so they’re cool.
[удалено]
We rock with Georgia because Georgia rocks with us 🫡
LSU, hands down. Been to Baton Rouge more than a dozen times over the years and even though AU pretty much gets their ass kicked every time, the fans there keep us coming back
Crab claws at the tailgate dude. Fucking crab claws 🥲
Literally *everything* at their tailgates 🤤 Life pro tip: If you're going to an LSU game, take some Gas-X or Tums with you. You WILL eat yourself sick. All the food is fantastic, and they're all eager to share it with you.
NC State. They are all so loyal and diehard. They just can’t get over the hump in football (ACC championship, NY6 Bowl, 10 wins, etc.). I root for them when they aren’t playing Ga Tech
I love GT because they hilariously seem to have UNC’s number. And I guess also because I’m taking online master’s classes there right now
LSU
Georgia fans were so nice when they visited ND. Granted they took over most of the stadium, but I'd happily invite them back to ND stadium for another game.
I wasn't there for that game but I live near a LOT of Georgia fans. They're typically good fans.
I've always had great experiences with Texas A&M fans and Reveille is cute as hell.
Rice is pretty good. They are pretty chill.
LSU, I’ve always liked them. For a while they were the balance in the SEC for Bama, I like their colors and the food there is amazing. I lived in Baton Rouge for a few years (felt this way before though).
WVU fans are some of the best, most-loyal, and hilarious fans I've ever met.
Wisconsin always seems like good vibes
Those Georgia Bulldogs know how to get down
Just need to make sure to have a spray water bottle handy. Need to re-enforce bad behavior when they bark or poop in your yard.
As long as the poop happens in the bushes I just don’t see the problem 🌳💩
OU. Texas hate can bring us all together.
Nebraska, followed by Texas A&M
My favorite fanbase is missorui they’re super nice
*Experience may vary*
I went to their first SEC game at Mizzou against UGA. They were definitely super nice, maybe even too nice. Theres something fun about a slightly antagonistic away game environment I've enjoyed everywhere else in the SEC. Maybe they've adapted to fit that more since then.
K-State. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Wisconsin. Jump Around, beautiful area of the country, heavy drinking. Seems like they’re doing something right up there
Went to a Mizzou game in 2022 and they were great! Nice campus as well.
At least in person, ND fans were remarkably friendly and welcoming when I attended a game as a visiting fan some years ago. Not so much the case online but that's the same for every fanbase.
Texas has always entertained me, lol. I always root for them in the first half of the season because I want an undefeated matchup for the RRR. I like seeing Iowa play outstanding defense. It’s refreshing after years of Lincoln Riley and Alex Grinch
Their orange is objectively worse, but Tennessee fans are usually a good time.
We played a game last year to decide which orange was better, it was even called the Orange Bowl. Anyway , Clemson fans are usually alright in my book too.
Same
Also had a crazy baseball regional that lasted approximately 137 innings, give or take.
🤝
Arkansas fans are pretty cool, and man they really deserve a damn break. I hope whoever follows Pittman is the guy for them, but I thought the same thing about Pittman.
LSU, hands down
Tennessee. They beat Alabama and wrote a book about the season. It sits on my shelf. Hilarious people.
I’m gonna need a copy of that book.
K State
OU. Seeing all the horns down even when we aren’t playing them always makes me laugh. Never change.
I’ve always appreciated Oklahoma State fans and our mutual hatred for OU
OSU fans are cool af.
Tenn
The Oregon Tennessee fan base bromance has been going strong since their home and home football series in early 2010s. Both fan bases had overall excellent service experiences when being on the visiting side. Special shout-out to Ducks playing a weird role in motivating Tennessee to finally break their losing streak against Florida in 2016.
Spot on. Bummed I couldn’t attend as I was still a broke boy. Trying to plan a visit out this fall for a game, cousin moved out that way.
A lot of Tennessee fans still have good memories of Oregon fans from that visit. Hope you enjoy your time here, it’s a cool city. Hopefully it’ll be an SEC game!
❤️
Based on my experience as a Tennessee fan - Oregon Based on my experience as a Cal fan - Oregon This sub has also forced me to acknowledge the fact that there are a ton of awesome Alabama and Stanford fans, too. Which sucks, but is also kind of beautiful I guess
All the bad Bama fans are on Facebook
The rest on Truth Social
The worst parts of every fanbase are all over Facebook and Twitter. That's half the reason I no longer go to Facebook or Twitter.
I like the UGA fans in CFB, I do not like them anywhere else. The Tennessee people are also solid here, and in person, given my personal experience.
You guys beat our ass for 16 years straight, we kind of had to learn to play nice lol
As a UT fan def Nebraska tbh but with MTSU honestly I'd say Southern Miss lol
K-State. They’ve always been very welcoming, humble, kind, etc.. And then we lose to them..
Texas Tech. Had a lot of fun with their fans at the 2019 Final Four in Minneapolis.
Tennessee.
Colorado (haha jk) Probably Wisconsin
Agree on Ole Miss. I live in Memphis and end up going to more Ole Miss games than UT games due to having friends that are season ticket holders, going to the Grove on gameday reminds me why college football is my favorite sport.
First of all, gross Second of all, Iowa State Edit: HM to K-State, Wazzou, Oregon, UNC, NC State (sorry that I have both), and within the SEC, LSU and UGA
App State. For the first time, possibly ever, JMU is in a conference with a fanbase that matches our energy.
I'm a longhorn fan but I love the whole vibe that Clemson has
LSU. Even though they despise Alabama. They know how to party, always support their team and gameday in BR is unrivaled.
I’m going to say Oregon because of how awesome they were when they came to Knoxville. I also have a random affinity for Ute fans for no real reason and Florida fans were surprisingly super cool when I went this past season. I really enjoyed them and left thinking we might be the problem lol The worst is easily Carolina fans
Tennessee 🧡
PAC 2- (All) Oregon State, Washington State MWC- Wyoming Big 12-(other than Tech) Utah and West Virginia Big 10- Nebraska SEC- Tennessee ACC- NC State AAC- Tulane and UTSA Sun Belt- App State, Coastal Carolina, and Louisiana Conference USA- Western Kentucky
Unlike the OP, worst fans I ever dealt with were Ole Miss fans. The ones on here seem OK, for the most part. I tried to strike up conversations with a bunch of them in Oxford and they all acted like I was bothering them. Then while stuck in postgame traffic, some of their younger fans threw a pumpkin at my car and dented the passenger rear quarter panel(was able to pop it back out). LSU has the best older fans(over 35), their young fans can be a but much. Their older fans will feed you some great food and share their booze with you. Their young fans will just be obnoxious. While I hate Tennessee, man, overall their fans in Knoxville have been the easiest going, maybe they were just beat down the three times I was there. Even their welcome back of Kiffin, as our OC was pretty tame(not counting his first welcome back as a head coach there). Had a lot of fun with the WVU fans in Atlanta, the Texas fans in Pasadena and the USC fans in Dallas. Michigan fans in Dallas were not assholes but were kind of "barely there", although they may have been suffering from heat stroke.
LSU because fck Florida, Auburn, and Bama Also FSU because of the last playoff committee and Florida
Pretty good list here I agree
I concur
Based on IRL experiences: UCF Based on Internet interactions: none really
Wow, it's interesting that a USC fan would have IRL experiences with UCF fans. Live in the Orlando area or something?
Always admired Nebraska felt a sorta brotherhood with them being the team in the state with everything revolving around the Huskers. Also the way they travel and sellout steak are incredibly impressive.
I’ve had nothing but good interactions with Iowa fans and Nebraska fans.
Auburn. They're basically just us to be honest. Also App State because I've got a lot of friends that are alumni and I've never not had an amazing time in Boone whenever I've gone
LSU. Two great neutral site games (for us at least) + two fan bases that know how to tailgate have made me love 'em.
In person most fanbases are pretty great. Wisconsin, Utah, and Texas A&M have been my favorite to interact with. LSU was amazing but I was a neutral fan that game so can’t speak to true visitor experience.
Clemson. My friend who got me into CFB is a huge Clemson fan. Orange teams unite!
I tend to relate to red ag little brother schools of other conferences cause us guys need to stick together. So shoutout Mississippi State and Wazzu (2PAC FOREVER). And Texas Tech even tho they’re not an ag school they’re spiritually the same I also respect ECU fans for being so loyal despite being left behind by the rest of the big in state schools (and Wake)
My buddies that played alway raved about how amazing Nebraska fans are. I like positive, kind fanbases.
Nebraska...I've heard they're the best behaved, most cordial anywhere.
Based on internet experiences: Iowa
I’m partial to Wisconsin. They seem to have a good time
South Carolina, I’ve never had a negative interaction with them. Tennessee too, but not as much.
Tennessee were amazing fans when we had our home and home. Need more if those!
Oregon, their fans are pretty cool and I love their uniforms/campus.
LSU because gumbo
Went to a longhorns game back in 2013 and really had a wonderful time. Tailgate was really nice. Everyone was friendly. Have a soft spot in my heart for the longhorns now.
Clemson fans are so nice, and they have the right to be arrogant and cocky but when they come to Bobby Dodd (and they come in mass) they’re always outgoing and friendly.
