3. Oregon

You have to be crazy loyal to still root for Oregon. Not that Oregon is a tough program to root for because the Ducks have been exciting for decades, but rather it has never won a national title in program history which has to be a tough test for a loyal fanbase.

Zero national titles and yet Autzen Stadium is packed to the brim each weekend in the fall. Eugene is an electric place to catch a game. Consistently, Autzen is one of the toughest places to play in the country and probably tops in the Pac-12.

Oregon fans are friendly, welcoming, and loyal. They’re one of the most pleasant fanbases to interact with and they have a huge following. The Ducks have 815,000 Facebook followers and just under 400,000 on Twitter. That’s impressive for a Pac-12 program.

On top of that, Autzen is constantly deafening and it filled 101.8% of the stadium throughout the 2022 season. That was sixth nationally.
