that the fact that local Mormons decide to turn up and watch BYU means we have some sort of truly devoted exceptional fan base.

Who has the worst fan base in America?

Yewts and that's not rivalry smack. They're legitimately awful.

Hoax

Has any other fan base been as called out by national reporters?

Gustav

Yes.

Okay

Gustav

8/11/17 9:48am

Yewts obviously, but also TCU. They didn't show up to games when their team was top 10 in the country

IntelCougar

8/11/17 7:42am

They did show up, the problem is that there's only ~1000 of them in existence

TCU is a great program in a state where they will always be overshadowed

I know someone at TCU right now. Entire campus dressed purple on game days.

Correct. Not a large alumni base from TCU. Their fans have been better than most

lackadaisical? Come on man. BYU fans are hardly lazy or lacking in enthusiasm.

Are we sure that BYU travels unusually well, or are there just local fans at

Fair nuff, but it's either a dedicated one or a national one. I think you have

Yeah, I would go with national. No question our fan base net is more widespread

I'll retract lackadaisical. Boring still stands- I don't know how many times

CObluezone

8/11/17 8:55am

60k+ per game is not lackadaisical. Nor is 10k+ on the road across the country.

After dealing with them a little last year, Iowa State could give Utah a run.
