Gumps since their new deity was hired.

I should open a houndstooth shop before Saban retires.

way too many OU Sooners in Northwest Arkansas.

Then there's the ubiquitous Jim Jones/Gus Malzahn Society in Springdale and south Rogers, where lifelong "Razorback fans" will root for Auburn this Saturday.

Mostly oilfield

Houston area.

Easily LSU. I travel to Brazil every 5 to 6 weeks and there are a lot of LSU caps/shirts on the plane flying into Rio. Some Bama hats also.

LSU, Bama, and of course Ags are well represented in Brazil also

It's a mixed bag in Baldwin county. Daphne and Spanish Fort seem to have very large numbers of LSU fans. Gulf Shores/Orange Beach seem to be almost always Bama/Auburn unless they are clearly tourists. Fairhope seems to have a lot of Ole Miss and LSU fans, as well. Seems to be a lot of Ole Miss women in fairhope looking to marry up and old.

I would guess that east Mississippi has more Bama fans, northern part of the state has more UT fans, and the southern portion more LSU. I know several LSU fans from the coast.


Yeah, but the UT fans have disappeared since the great pumpkin was axed. They've been so bad for so long that there's no reason for people who live 6 hours away from Knoxville to sidewalk. UT is losing west TN hard.

In North La, there are a REAL good share of Arkansas, Alabama, Ole Miss & Auburn supporters.

re: Outside of your fanbase, what sec team holds the most fans in your state? (Posted on 8/28/14 at 7:29 am to LSUFANinIL) I know it's hard for you, but now that it's finally gameday, you can stop posting hypothetical, water cooler bull shite questions that no one gives a damn about. The season has started, now everyone talks trash and thumps their chest until they lose, then fall back on the "at least we're not arky" mentality.


we all understand you're testy about your impending arse whooping by South Carolina so let it all out.

Bama gets a good bit of students from NOLA. DKE at Bama, at least in my day, was almost all NOLA and Mobile dudes.

I'm constantly surprised at the amount of Alabama fans I see here in Kentucky. There's even a road near where I worked named Crimson Tide Ln. and someone drives around a nice white Tahoe with a big Bama sticker on the back window.

Tennessee fans are probably tied with Alabama.

I wouldn't go that far. Especially outside of the tourist areas. Bama would easily be number 2. Then maybe Arky or something before getting to Tulane. (Though I do wanna go to a game there this year).

That's tough as Louisiana is an LSU state. I would guess Texas A&M (engineers) and Alabama (a lot of African American and Lafayette Bama fans in this state) would hold the most sway as far as SEC franchises. Neither of those would have as many fans as Tulane, Tech, or ULL, though. Probably not even as many as Southern or ULM either.
