And now, how about the most passionate fan bases? This is far different from sensitivity, although one team did make both categories.


1. Nebraska

— This one actually isn’t even close as Nebraska fans have remained loyal to a program that is far from its amazing peak and continue to rabidly believe 9-3 can happen every season. They will never, ever give up hope.

Nov 5, 2022; Lincoln, Nebraska, USA; Nebraska Cornhuskers fans sing at the end of the first quarter against the Minnesota Golden Gophers at Memorial Stadium.

2. Tennessee

— They make the most sensitive list and most passionate list. FSU fans bragged about #FSUTwitter after they got snubbed by the college playoff committee. They have no idea what #volstwitter can accomplish.

Oct 15, 2022; Knoxville, Tennessee, USA; Tennessee Volunteers fans tear down the goal posts after beating the Alabama Crimson Tide at Neyland Stadium.

3. Oklahoma

— This fan base is often times nasty and can turn on their own like everyone else, but it’s the passion that leads that charge. Maybe being in a state with little talent and having to win recruiting battles on the road or simply their hate of Texas has spurred them, but whatever it is, it’s insane.

Nov 11, 2023; Norman, Oklahoma, USA; Oklahoma Sooners fan cheers before the game against the West Virginia Mountaineers at Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium.

4. Georgia

— Prior to their recent run of national titles, UGA fans had to hear 1980 every second and still remained one of the most loyal and passionate groups on the planet. Now that they are winning, it’s amped up.

Sep 23, 2023; Athens, Georgia, USA; Georgia Bulldogs fans in costumes react during the game against the UAB Blazers at Sanford Stadium.

5. Alabama

— Ever before Nick Saban, this fan base was crazy, but now they’re a spoiled group who has no idea how much their fandom could be questioned with Nick Saban gone. And they are ready for the challenge.

Alabama fans celebrate during the 2021 College Football Playoff Semifinal game at the 86th Cotton Bowl in AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas Friday, Dec. 31, 2021. Alabama defeated Cincinnati 27-6 to advance to the national championship game.
