Excluding your own obviously.
For me:
1) UGA: Very knowledgeable and even-keeled in my experience. Had a great time with some UGA ppl at their tailgate in 2018; they brought one of the biggest visiting contingents I've seen to TS
2) Arkansas: I met a few in the mid 2000s who apparently took the boot thing seriously and really hate LSU, overall they are great in my experience: salt of the earth people who always have good stories. You have to be pretty tough to live in Arkansas after all
3) Auburn: pretty knowledgeable and fun to be around, which is odd bc you used to see them making up horror stories about our fans on message boards. They tend to be realists in person, which makes some of their online behavior odd
4) MSU- fun, blue collar group with a good sense of humor; they've been tempered by their difficult history, so they don't talk much shite
5) Alabama- Overall they are decent; but there's a pretty clear divide between their longtime fans and those they've picked up since ~2009.
6) Texas A&M- Once you get past the weirdness, they're fine; only knock is that many of them think that they think of themselves as this traditional power when they are anything but.
7) Florida- Some of them are kind of whiny and arrogant, but plenty of decent, knowledgeable people
8) Mississippi- Their "actual" fans (people from MS who have deep roots with the school) are delusional and hate LSU with every fiber of their being, it's one of the biggest instances of penis envy in the world. Now; however, most of them are rejects from other states who don't care about the school or its traditions, which is good.

Not enough experience with the others to form an opinion

In real life?

1. LSU
2. AU
3. USC
4. MSU
5. UK
6. UT
7. Bama
8. UF

But most of this is based on experiences I've had with each fan base either through workmates, friends, visiting fans and what not. Honestly, no fan base has really obnoxious fans. Most have been great. Especially when I've gone to away games.

The only bad experiences I've had were in Oxford. They make sure to showcase their obsessive inferiority complex to us even when their sucks (i.e. 90% of the time). Unfortunately I haven't been to road games aside from the MS schools since 2014

1. LSU. They always looks like they’re having fun.
2-10 Don’t care.
11. Florida. I don’t have anything bad to say. I’m just still mad about the nineties.
12. Tennessee. They were the worst when I was in school. I’ve very much enjoyed watching them collapse.
13. Bama. Like the dude living in a double wide with a $60,000 truck and $40,000 boat. Can’t tell if I’m jealous or not.
14a. Barn. Most of the gheys I know went there. Weird.
14b. USCe are the fricking worst. I wouldn’t piss on one if they were on fire.

You seem like a shite stirring AH to be honest. Always posting subjective generalized emotional negative posts. I thought it was an act at first and funny but you are serious and committed to it. My favorite fan base that I look forward to coming to town are LSU fans. I have had a blast with your fan base and they are in it to win the party also along with us. I have been tiger baited many times and caught shite from your fans but I end up drinking beers with them and enjoying their awesome tailgate, food and conversation. Buck up buttercup and don’t let the arseholes that are in every group define your narrative of folks. You might have a good time.

None of the SEC fanbases are desirable people to be around in my experience.

I have Bama and Clemson friends around the CT area. But they are more Saban and Dabo fans and have likely never been in the state of Alabama or South Carolina in their lives. They aren’t good representatives of the bumpkin lifestyle.

This is actually a good/interesting topic imo.

Being an lsu fan from baton Rouge I love to see that our attendance is enjoyed but other schools fans. 3-0 vote so far

What should I say? I've lived in MS so I know the depths of y'all's obsessive hate for us; fortunately I haven't been around many UM fans since but over the past year I've seen constant "LSU pays players from a cancer fund" posts from them. I hope everything bad happens to UM.

Arkansas fans were awesome in Fayetteville

LSU always is passionate talking football IRL. Really enjoyable

I really enjoyed conversing with AU people at the final 4 last year.

Auburn - nicest group of fans I’ve visited on the road
LSU - most fun I’ve had on the road


The majority of the rest - no strong opinion
Ole Miss - no explanation

Favorite SEC fanbases:

1. LSU - Their fans were a blast in 2012.
2. Auburn - Nicest fans I've been around. They were great to us in 2010.
3. Texas A&M - Same as Auburn. An extremely welcoming fanbase when I visited in 2017.


Least Favorite SEC fanbases:

1. Georgia - A huge contingent of sidewalk fans. Some of the most confrontational people you'll ever be around for a college football game.
2. Tennessee - Their fans still think they're Alabama. Extremely arrogant for achievements that occurred 15-20 years ago.

South Carolina and other South Carolina fans have been some of the most vicious fights (mostly verbal) I've ever witnessed or taken part in.
