20. Arkansas
I was ready to move fanbases like Oklahoma and Kentucky ahead of Arkansas, but the Razorbacks have some of the best fans in the sport and that’s obvious each and every year.
The things that Razorback fans have had to endure over the past decade have been absolutely horrendous. Dealing with coaches like John L. Smith and Chad Morris has taken years off these poor fans’ lives but they’ve come out on top with Sam Pittman now leading the way. They deserved this coaching staff.
Arkansas had a tough 7-6 season in 2022 and it fell short of all expectations and yet the fans still showed up. They averaged 96.3% capacity throughout the 2022 season which is impressive considering they weren’t cheering for an SEC title-caliber squad.
With an improved team heading into 2023, I expect the capacity percentage to improve and finish somewhere in the top 25 this season.
Oh, and Arkansas fans are everywhere on Facebook (291,000 likes) and Twitter (406,700 followers).
