Overrated Florida fans enjoy 3 National Championships in the last 2 decades.
Ole Miss fans enjoy 4th place SECw finishes for the last 50 years

These highly unscientific lists are really getting ridiculous.

Well, I guess I'll chime in instead of the rebel.
Growing up in Central Florida and living in Gainesville for a couple years; Florida sports fans are fickle in general. I was one of the only ones not to jump on whichever team's bandwagon that was winning at the time.
Most people have out of state connections, and they only cheer for the in state team when they are winning. Otherwise, they only cheer for the team's where they came from.
In other words, people in Florida are fake as frick.

I know. His explanation for Florida was: "Can you believe it’s been six years since Tim Tebow played football at Florida? – MF"
Brilliant piece of journalism

It's not really surprising. Central Florida has very little native culture. It's a soulless place.

I've been looking for the picture of the terrible bumper sticker we put out that year that said OM 31 National Champs 30 but to no avail

What a terrible fricking article

They were unjustifiably hard on the State of Florida. I disagree.

Best Fan Bases in College Football according to Kaiser:
T-1. Aggy (sorry. Bias shining through)
T-1. (gulp) LSU - you gotta hand it to the Fighting Nutrias. They are a passionate bunch, which conveniently makes them a little bit easier to rustle.
3. (double gulp) Arky - for the size of school and general toothlessnes of its fans Arky has strong support. Dollar for dollar (or tooth for tooth) Arky is top notch.
T-4. Auburn
T-4. Alabama
T-4. Georgia
7. USCe
8. Tenn
9. Some non-SEC fan base.
After that, who cares. Honorable Mention to the State of Mississippi.

I doubt Florida will be good at football again anytime soon.

Do you actually think that USCe has a better fan base than Tennessee?
Posted on 8/19/15 at 12:58 pm to Stillinthegrove
The 8 UF fans on here will be rustled but its rather true.
UF fans are a fickle bunch and while they've enjoyed much success since 2000 that really is a short time.
Before their success UF fans were U or FSU fans...

Didn't USCe have some crazy sellout streak even during 0-11 and the dumpster fire years?

This is why I don't belive in the "blue blood" designation. You've been a top program for how long? The "blue bloods" crow about how awesome their program is, ect. Would Tenn fans even show up without Tenn's history? That's why the fricking longhorns and okies belong up top. Shitty, fair-weather fans that call in death threats and boo their own players.

During the 0-21 debacle. Yes, we sold it out every game.
THAT is dedication, y'all.

Yes it is. 
Some programs deserve better fans.

I never know if people actually believe this or not when they post it.
UF has one of the largest fanbases in the nation which correlates into us being one of the richest athletic departments.
