In the Blount Knox Sevier county area the residents see mostly UT overwhelmingly, but also an equal number of Bama and UGA stuff. In Sevier county you see greater diversity of teams but it’s just tourist passing through.

Probably 94% Vols stuff, 2.5% Bama, 2.5% UGA, and 1% random among residents. I blame the I gotta be different/rebel crowd. The 3 counties have 750,000 residents and another 100,000 visiting at any time.

Dude Mobile is equally as far from Auburn and Bama as it is from BR and it’s even closer to NOLA. I don’t know why it’s so difficult to comprehend the fact that there are lots of Louisiana people and LSU fans that live in that area.


Its true.

Dallas is probably 25-30% SEC fans.
Move that to 55-60% next year when Texas and OU come on board. SMU, TCU, Tech, Baylor, OK State, all have a presence here. Tarrant county will be skewed a little more with all the TCU fans there.

LSU has been the biggest mover here since they started having success under Saban and when Katrina pushed many of them into Texas.

Here's a map based on Facebook data. It's a little old but valid, I'd think. LINK

NOLA Metro 1.3 million

Of the % of those or number of those who are football fans, I'd say:

90% Louisiana State
2% Ole Miss
2% A&M
1% Auburn
1% Florida
1% Georgia
1% Tennessee
1% Miss.St.
1% Rest of SEC

I don't know the percentage breakdown but in the KC area I see quite a few Hawg, GA, Gator, some Bama, some TN....probably Hawgs are the most, soon it will be Sooners and Horns.
