an Arkansas fan talking shite about how many fans are actual alums? That is chutzpah.



Yeah, because Arkansas is known for having a ton of bandwagon fans, while Alabama's fanbase is viewed as a bastion of educated alumni.


I'm guessing you've probably never even set foot on Alabama's campus on a weekday?

I am an alum but regardless your entire state roots for Arkansas. Your entire state has fewer college graduates than the state of Alabama. Do the math

I doubt that.

You do an awful lot of generalizing for someone trying to cite statistics.

Also, there are no Alabama fans outside the state of Alabama? at your "math."

Checking in - Middle Tennessee State grad (baseball player not good enough to cut it in the SEC). LSU is my football "team", though I root for Tennessee when they're playing anyone besides LSU, and Tennessee basketball is my "team".

I couldn't care less if MTSU wins or loses in any sport besides baseball, and even then my level of care is pretty low.

I don't care who you pull for as long as you are a true fan. I know U. of Miami football 'fans' who literally could not name 5 players on the roster.

Raised an Alabama fan, my dad graduated from Alabama, and then I went and got a degree from there too.

your 18 hours away from an LSU degree, and you didn't fail out? Your not a sidewalk fan. you are a prolonged student still, which is even better.

Some of us graduated from two different BCS schools, so we get easily confused if they play each other. Luckily, my two BCS schools have only played each other once in football in my lifetime, and I was far too young to care at the time. Basketball is a different story, but I'm more of a football fan anyway.
