I haven't read this thread.
That said, the difference appears to be entitlement.
Bama fans--on the whole--are much more loyal & "authentic" than are longhorns. And I'm painting w a broad brush on both sides of the aisle.
On another note ... I never thought I'd ever come across a program w more "t-shirt fans" (I believe y'all refer to em as "sidewalk fans?") than UTex has. Bama, however, has got the horns beat there. I'm not meaning to insult anyone (though I probably will); but I'll never understand the idea of being a fan of an institution of higher education from where one did not personally matriculate.

Meh, I get it. I'm a fan of Michigan and Bama and didn't matriculate through them, obviously. It can be a regional pride thing. Nothing wrong with that.

I'm not saying there's something wrong with it--I knew I failed at making that point clear.
I just don't understand it. At all.
I'm certainly not claiming to be "right."
My apologies.

I completely understand said fandom of professional sports. You select a team you like, b/c folks don't attend a franchise. You're making my point.
But collegiate sports--to me--are about, well, colleges and universities--institutions of higher education. I can't imagine financially supporting a program from a school I didn't attend.
I shouldn't have said what I did. Such comments (re: t-shirt/sidewalk fans) always make folks very emotional. And I should've known better.

The main difference is that there are more than just a handful of Bama fans that aren't total jackasses.
