When it comes to college football fanbases, LSU’s stands out as unparalleled. Week after week, LSU supporters fill the stadiums, no matter the sport, and consistently outshine other fanbases. Anyone who argues that another fanbase is superior clearly hasn’t experienced an LSU sporting event.
However, not everyone in college football agrees that LSU has the best fans. The Colorado Buffaloes have become more of a media spectacle than a football team since Coach Prime’s arrival in Boulder. His sons, Shedeur and Shilo, excel on the field, while Deion Jr. plays a significant role behind the scenes in media.
On Shedeur Sanders’ podcast, 2Legendary, Deion Sanders Jr. compared LSU fans to Colorado’s, making the following remark:
“I think people like the College Football fanbase, has never seen a fanbase like Colorado. Don’t get me wrong, LSU, all these legendary teams have insane fanbases, they have 100,000 people at their games, but its a different type of people riding online for Colorado.”
In a way, Sanders Jr.’s claim is understandable, as the LSU faithful do indeed outshine other schools in attending sporting events. However, the Tiger fans are equally passionate online in their support of the LSU football program. A quick look at social media reveals the discrepancy: the LSU Football Twitter account has over one million followers, while Colorado’s account has only 270,000.
