The Geography of College Football Fans

[NUance]

Ohio State and Nebraska have roughly the same amount of fans based on student enrollment. OSU is roughly 2.5 times bigger then UNL

Wait what? I'm confused.

Ohio State: ~57,000 students

Nebraska: ~25,000 students

maybe Wisconsin math is different- 24000/61000 is 2.54

Funny. :mellow:

I'm saying that I don't understand how you can say in one sentence that OSU and UNL have the same number of students/fans and then come right back in the next sentence and say that they do not.

She's saying same ratio, not same number. Which is true.

Seems like you'd get that since you attended #42 ranked Wisconsin, and not #101 ranked UNL like me. (U.S. News and World Report rankings from your status update) :lol:

Seems like she would articulate that point if she had meant it, she did not. No need to attack the intelligence of others.

Attacking the intelligence of others? You mean like posting a U.S. News and World Reports list on a Nebraska board that has your school, and all other B10 schools, ranked higher than NU:

New US News Report ranks Big Ten Schools 1.Northwestern 2.UM 3.UW 4.PSU 5.Illinois 6.OSU 7.Purdue 8.U of M 9.MSU 10.Iowa 11.Indiana 12.UNL (Bucky status update, 6/2/2012)

/btw: If I wanted to attack you, you'd be the first to know it. But I don't. I sort of like you. You're quite entertaining. :lol:

You know something is wrong when someone posts a news story/fact and you feel attacked. Clearly reality is biased against Nebraska.

It's a context thing. Just like I wouldn't go on a Wisconsin board and post an article about a microwaved parrot (a few years back). Or go on a Gamecocks board and start posting stuff about their most recent ncaa violations.

It's news. A list, nothing more. I didn't bash NU. Get over it.
