There. Burnt Orange Nation rates Regional Fan Bases. That's substantial, right? Guess who has the bestest fans...

I've been through the good and the bad and now that everything's good the band wagon is weighed down a lot more than it used to be. Come back in time and sit with me at the UT-UCLA game, circa 1997, and see just how bad it has been. It pains me to say it, but we have more spectators than fans.

Still, I think that among the college kid demographic, our fandom is as strong as, if not stronger than, anyone else's out there.

I do not believe that you can count a sorority girl that goes to a game because it is the thing to do as a fan. A true fan says (with less than 6 minutes left, down by 13), "Here we go. We've got this one."
