Ranking college football’s top 25 fanbases for 2023
10. Kansas State
I feel like Kansas State fans have always been pretty respectful. I don’t know if that’s just because I’ve associated their entire football program with Bill Snyder who was just as mild-mannered as they came, or if they’re actually just really down-to-earth people.
It might just be both.
Either way, Kansas State fans are impressively loyal and they watched their all-time great coach retire and leave the program in a questionable spot, but Chris Klieman came in and kept the ball rolling.
Heck, you could even argue Klieman has even improved the program as the Wildcats won the Big 12 title last season.
During that title-winning season, Kansas State drew the fifth-best attendance percentage in the country. The Wildcats’ stadium in Manhattan was packed tight every week to the tune of 102.3% full.
I’m incredibly impressed with this fanbase. They’re just as passionate during basketball season.
