Summary:

#1 Alabama: Has much of the east. The Deep South is solidly Alabama ("SEC! SEC! SEC!") as is Hawaii (because of Tua Tagovailoa).

#2 Clemson: Has their own state. And also Rhode Island because... ??

#3 Notre Dame: Has their local region and New Hampshire, possibly because New Hampshire has a large Catholic population.

#4 Oklahoma: Most states (including Texas ) are rooting for the Sooners.

Don't care... but not surprised that PA went for Alabama. Kind of a long standing mutual respect thing...

Fucking Sooners always trying to steal land and shit.

Didn't know Notre Dame had such a following in West Virginia, interesting.

I was about to say I was surprised. The amount of Irish Catholics in PA is pretty high, and just Catholic, even more so, lol!

Only opposing coach/team that in my remembrance who ever got a standing ovation in Bryant-Denny is JoePa and the Nittany Lions. Last P5 Home and home 'Bama played... Not to stir up the later shit in this thread, but it happened... There is history, Bear would steer black players to Joe in the segregation days... Yeah, the ties run deep...

Good stuff, man! I did not know this at all. Now it does make sense that they would pull for Bama.

Are you referring to me, kind sir?

It's perfectly OK if you are. I'm a kind and gentle poster. Conflicts are too much for me. I don't like them. They give me bad dreams.

If I've said something to offend, please accept my heartfelt apology. But if I may ask, politely that is, why do you think that good natured, hard working, salt-of-the-earth people in the middle of the country aren't that bright?

because they are okie fans...


(everything is in jest, smack talk, etc)

I understand perfectly, sir. Again, I meant no offense. I try my hardest to get along with everyone because conflict gives me indigestion. The last thing I'd want to do is offend someone and have that lead to hurt feelings.

After all, we're all a family here. We've come to this great community to discuss the thing we love and have a DEEP passion about. That passion is College Football.

And believe me, I wouldn't want to ruin the experience OR our shared passion for anyone. Have a Blessed day, kind sir.
