College football fans are a rapacious lot who take their fandom seriously. So what would be the perfect celebrity fan match for some of the most notable teams?

Celebrities love to show up at sporting events, flashing their colors and posing their mugs for the camera. Some – like Drake – seem to be the ultimate bandwagoning fan, jumping from team to team, depending on who the spotlight is on at that time.

But college football fans are as loyal and dedicated as they come, and they find fair-weather fans to be repugnant. Typically you don’t see a lot of famous celebrities sporting their college colors other than as celebrity guest pickers on College GameDay.

The fact is, there are some college football teams who could use a little celebrity juice, and there are some celebrities whose personality could perfectly fit that team just as Katy Perry (pictured above) has given some star power to Ole Miss.

So what if we matched up some well-known college football programs with celebrities from stage, screen, music and television as their go-to fans. There doesn’t have to necessarily be a tie between the school and the star, they just need to be a good match for each other.

Here are 20 college football programs and the famous non-athlete celebrity who should be their media mouthpiece and spokesperson.
