6. Florida

The good

Most of the world has never seen the Florida Gators play a home game, but they’ve heard about the swamp. The Gator chomp is one of the most iconic hand motions in a game full of theatrics and enthusiasm.

The bad

Sandwiched in a state with Miami and Florida State, and sharing a division with Georiga and Tennessee, Florida has to battle for supremacy daily. Any misstep — and there have been a few in recent memory — could lead to plenty of frustration among UF fans.

The bottom line

When it comes to sifting through the college football fanbases in Florida, choosing the best truly becomes an exercise of splitting hairs. What separates the Gators from the rest is the longevity and consistency of their success and the overflowing crowds at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium tip the scales.

Florida has had their rough spots, but true to their SEC roots, the fanaticism has never dwindled.
