Eric the Red Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Good list and research done... Best part might be the ending: Just Missing the Cut: Georgia: Nothing but good things to say about these folks, they were just the odd dawg out. Five SEC schools will have to do. Texas A&M: Friday nights and game days in College Station are nuts with students making up a third of the crowd. Competing with high school football and so many schools in the area, the fan base just isn't big enough. (Don't agree with this...A&M fans are loud and wild) Texas: Everyone knows the importance of football in Texas. Unfortunately, the students appear more concerned with socializing than what's happening on the field. Major points deducted for Matthew McConaughey being a Texas fan. Oklahoma: One of the most fabled programs in college football, Sooner fans just aren't rabid enough. We know the spring games are on ESPN, but more than 25,000 people should be showing up. Michigan: The annual attendance leader, Michigan folks love their university and football team as much as anyone, but you wouldn't know it from the noise level in the Big House. Oh my....balls I tell ya, balls On The Other End: (JUST PERFECT) Miami (FL): There isn't a bigger group of fair-weather fans in all of sports than those cheering and jeering the Miami Hurricanes. Even when they played for the 2001 and 2002 national championships, the Rose Bowl and Sun Devil Stadium looked like home games for Nebraska and Ohio State due to the number of fans wearing red. And with five national championships since 1983, nothing short of a national title will satisfy Miami fans. As Orlando Sentinel columnist Mike Bianchi put it, UM fans are "preposterously unrealistic." And they jump ship quick. A mere 23,308 showed up for the 2006 home finale against Boston College during a dismal campaign. Good luck, Randy Shannon. Quote Link to comment

HuskerSpot Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Wow, great article AND accurate! I've been to some Wisconsin games - I thought maybe they'd be somewhere on the list, or at least honorable mention. Quote Link to comment
