2023 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA REGIONAL FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION TOP 20 RANKINGS

Off front, Previews, Southwest, Student Section Buzz,

Let’s take a quick timeout from the Final State Rankings and go back to the Student Section Report roots!

When this Student Section Rankings started with OC Sidelines in 2015, I didn’t expect an overwhelming reaction. We remember naming La Habra Clan (Now the La Habra Highlander Huddle) was our first Football Student Section Champion.

We extend the Student Section Rankings to Southern California when OCSidelines became SoCal Sidelines with Murrieta Mesa being the 2016 SoCal Student Section Champions. When SoCalSidelines went out of business, we began SoCal Student Sections, which later became the Student Section Report.

While we are the first and only ones to ever rank Student Sections all 50 states, it all started in Southern California, so I have still have knowledge of the Student Section scene in SoCal despite focusing in all 50 states.

The winners in each of the five SoCal Regions will battle in a SoCal Football Student Section of the Year voting starting on Wednesday. The winner will go to Regionals and potentially Nationals.

Let’s see who will battle for SoCal!

2023 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA REGIONAL FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION TOP 20 RANKINGS

2023 INLAND EMPIRE TOP 20 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

  1. Chaparral Puma Pit

Puma Pit really crashed the party in many ways. Not even a Top 5 jump in the IE Rankings, but this Student Section will definitely battle for a National Championship. This is an insane Student Section and it has to be insane when one of the best Student Sections in the nation happens to be in the same town as you. The Puma Pit ca throw a party in the stand we will see how they can handle the voting in the SoCal vote and hopefully in Regionals and Nationals, but for now the Chaparral Puma Pit is the 2023 Inland Empire Football Student Section of the Year!

2023 LOS ANGELES TOP 20 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

  1. Redondo Union Flock

The Flock was insane this football season. They followed the game and threw a party in the stands, something some Student Section tend to have a hard time mixing up.

2023 ORANGE COUNTY TOP 20 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

  1. Servite Asylum

The Asylum controlled Orange County this football season. One of the craziest Student Sections in the county that has built a dynasty in the OC. The black tie theme (Formerly known as Coach Troy Thomas Theme, who is no longer at the school) and the 80’s theme was insane. This didn’t seem like an argument as the Servite Asylum is the 2023 Orange County Football Student Section of the Year! Let’s see what they can do in the SoCal vote and perhaps Regionals and Nationals.

2023 SAN DIEGO TOP 20 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

  1. Carlsbad Loud Crowd 

San Diego Football Student Sections is a battle for the number two ranking because is it super tough to go over Carlsbad. The Loud Crowd is respected by many across the country as one of the nation’s best. The football definitely gets hyped up for their Student Section. The flares, confetti, the smoke, the endless cheers, you can definitely see why people have mistaken this Student Section as a college. For the Loud Crowd, the job is not done, they want the National Championship, but they have to get past everyone in SoCal and then Regionals and then Nationals, but for now and for six time in the last seven seasons, the Carlsbad Loud Crowd is the San Diego Football Student Section of the Year!
