fanbases, IMO. The South is the heartland of college football, and it is also politically conservative.

Also, the NBA is more popular with ethnic minorities, it would appear, just based on the crowds I see in stadiums & arenas.

#10 in the polls, but #1 where it matters, right?!

Wow. Dems are a lot less interested in football apparently. Probably why there is no BLM logo

They just suck at liking football.

Yeah. Edited because I typed before my brain had time to comprehend what was being read.

I don’t think they know what the free throws are for.

A little diversity is a good thing. Bummer for BYU

I would never have guessed it was so high given the political category on CB.

Exactly, it’s at least 80-20

We have plenty of diversity. Some of us like Mitt Romney and some of us don’t.

I’ve been told on this board that BYU is not very conservative these days.

Probably very true of those types that don't care about things like football.

Mr. Scoobs

Maybe 10% instead of 6.8%. Basically a communist campus.

Because “conservative” is a relative term. Normal conservatives are commies here

chilango

Not as conservative as it used to be

Interesting to see USC and Oregon at near 50/50 split even though states aren't

CB seems much more democrat than that.

Don’t fly a MAGA flag in front of your house? You’re a Democrat in bluecougar1985’s eyes

It isn’t. Just more anti-Trump, which is a very different thing.

Wondering how they judge political affiliation of a fanbase.

Don’t confuse their “OSU” (Oklahoma St) with tOSU.

And yet, a much smaller percentage of us will vote to re-elect the current POTUS

In other words, BYU has zero political influence.

For a school that has to battle a perception that it severely lacks diversity
