We also know UT doesn't deserve to be on the list after seeing Neyland Stadium the past 6 years. They downsized and it still looks like a ghost town
Dude, we were 6th in the country in attendance last year and we've been in the top 10 during the past 5 years despite not having a team even close to the top 25. We also had 70,000 at our spring game.
So either, you're really stupid, or that's a piss poor troll

You're showing a stadium that was previously sold out for the first half, then left because the game was a snore and Alabama was already ahead by a large margin. Alabama fans showed up for Nick Saban's first A-Day in 2007 with 92,000 strong. There were 56 consecutive sell outs at BDS from '88 to '01.
Jordan Hare wasn't even sold out for a number of games in '12. You sold out 3 times in 2009 and 2011.
You do realize B-D is never at full capacity. And sorry I posted similar pictures for bama that you did for Auburn. Hypocrisy is a bitch.

What's sad though, is when Alabama got upset by A&M in '12, the same day Auburn lost to Georgia, you guys decided to roll Toomers. Sad
Whats more sad is bama fans actually believe thats why the trees were rolled that day. we all up in your head

after seeing Jordan-Hare in 2012.
I was at the A&M/Auburn game in 2012. In the fourth quarter Auburn had 35 players and 2 coaches left The band had 1 drummer, a tuba and 3 flutist.
The bird disguised himself in a trench coat and walked away early in the 3rd quarter.

I'm sure it's been mentioned in 5 pages worth of banter... but I'll just toss in the fact that we have sold out 100% of games since 1988. So, I mean... there's that.
You can't say we aren't deserving of being considered one of the most loyal fan bases in all of college football when we expect championships and had to get drug through the mud post Stallings and sold out EVERY SINGLE GAME.
Say whatever you want about our fan base, but we are brutally loyal.

Move on.
If I were a Tennessee fan, I would be upset that my fanbase was measured as less loyal than one of the, if not THE most fair-weather, bandwagon, and ignorant fanbase in college football.

no you haven't. you didn't even sell out every game last year. your season average last season was less than your capacity, so you clearly did not

Clearly you don't understand how selling a game out works.

I guess Nebraska probably belongs on their easily. I just remember talking to a Huge Nebraska fan about Pelini and his controversy with the fans. What he told me is that Ohio State was up 21 in Lincoln and the Nebraska fans booed the team and over 75% of them left at halftime. Nebraska came back to win that game. The way I look at it is that the most loyal fan bases are the ones who support their team even in the worst of times and I think South Carolina, Penn State, Notre Dame, and probably Tennessee do that better than any other schools.
Eta: and A&M as well.

Well they were rolled before the bama game even started, because they were rolled when I got into town that day. The first basketball game/win of the season was the night before. This has been discussed before

I grew up watching the end of the Stallings era, then the fricking Mikes-Franchione dark ages. Not once was my Gump level below Ramp Lady.
I started watching football around this time, too. My fandom never wavered and I was always one of the most vocal at football games.

99%+ of home games were sold out last year (and every year since 1988 at least). Sorry dude. We ALWAYS sell out BDS.

so not 100%, which means you did not sell out every game. you were close, but not 100% of the games as you said alabama did. it's ok, only a few teams in the entire conference did last year and attendance is going down all across the country.

LOL. If you are truly arguing the semantics of 1% and not calling that a sell out, then I suppose you're right sir. But, it still seems like you're trolling and jealous of our absolutely sterling attendance records. Likely as good or better than anyone in the country since the time frame I mentioned.
Less than 1%? really?

you said alabama has sold out every single game since 1988. i just said they have not. i'm not sure why you're taking offense at my stating a fact that rebutted your initial comment. i never said you didn't have good attendance, just that you haven't sold out every game since 1988, or even every game last season.
99% being less than 100% isn't arguing semantics, btw. you might want to look up the definition.

Basing loyalty on sell outs is faulty at best. Some fan bases are larger, etc…As an Auburn fan I was embarrassed by how the team quit in 2012 and the fans quit. I watched every snap of that season. It was atrocious. We have loyal fans, but 2012 prevents us from being up at the top. USCe strikes me as #1.
