Well, of course. That's not the point. I asked if the rest of the board (mostly concentrated in the SE) knew any Oregon fans. So far, we've got one guy from Colorado who knows an actual Oregon alum.

OU's been around long enough to have a dedicated following whose first allegiance is to OU. Oregon "fans" are mostly run-of-the-mill frontrunners whose wardrobe includes clothing representing the champs of various sports.

I'd wager that most Oregon fans own a piece of Patriots, Heat, Lakers, Alabama, Yankees, Red Sox, and/or Cowboys clothing, though the latter is a bit questionable.

I know Oregon fans in Dallas...

We can only wait and see how BOTH sooner and Tide fans do on ticket sales.

As a college football fan, I THINK Oregon - Alabama is more interesting AND as a supporter of my home state, I think Oregon - Alabama would mean more money for New Orleans.

Again why would there be a lot of Oregon fans in the SE? The vast majority of their fanbase is in the Pacific NW just like how the vast majority of OU fans are in North Texas and Oklahoma.

It's not like you would be able to find many OU fans on either the West or East Coast so why would there be many Oregon fans so far away from the school?
