I’m just shocked the Denver Broncos likes are so low

I guess all the bandwagoners from their better days have completely vanished

UT football has 1.8 million followers on X. Maybe that’s a better indicator.

Corey Feldman has 244,000 Instagram followers

Brad Pitt has zero Instagram followers

Therefore Corey Feldman has more fans than Brad Pitt

Are you counting Redneck Riviera as part of the East Coast? I get your point though.

Nope. I’m talking solely about the OOS students who come from upper-middle class families in NJ, NYC, MA, CT, etc.

Before Saban came, over 90% of Alabama’s student body was from in-state. Nowadays, they only make up 40% of the entire student body. The majority are OOS.

A&M has very few sidewalk fans compared to most big schools.


The vast majority of A&M fans did not attend A&M like every school

So you think an Alabama student who is from NJ is a tshirt fan?

If you count friends and family who never attended, then yeah they are. Not the students though

These trust fund babies don’t go to Alabama for the academics. They go there to party, watch football, get a bullshite degree and then go back to their home state to work a nepo job.

You LITERALLY said you were solely talking about the OOS students. You dont know what a tshirt fan is. I question your authority to discuss this topic

OOS students can have family and friends who are died hard fans but have no affiliation with the university whatsoever. They are t-shirt fans as well.

Face it dude, no one knew about Alabama before Saban. It was on the verge of becoming Nebraska 2.0.

Not surprised at Vandy, but Tennessee with only 795k in a State with a population of 7.3 million. Lol. I hardly see VOL fans in Nashville. And of course Memphis is worse.

TV ratings for average games(big games CFB games are watched by most CFB fans)stadium sell outs, merchandise seem like better ways to guess.
