2024 ALABAMA FOOTBALL TOP 40 STUDENT SECTION PRESEASON RANKINGS
In 2015, yours truly began covering Student Sections in Orange County, California. We expanded to Southern California in 2017 and in 2021, we added four more states and added 15 more states. We went to 40 states two years ago.
We went to all 50 states in winter of 2023. No one has ever done that before…until now!
This is still a one-man operation for the most part, but we have some help with some partners on Instagram like OC Student Sections, Stadium Geeks, Maryland Student Section Rater, NorCal Student Sections and many more.
I know that Student Sections have a lot of work to do to get the students to the games to cheer on their classmates and go along with the theme and make sure they don’t cause trouble. These student sections deserve recognition.
We will kick off the Student Section season with Preseason Football Student Section Rankings. REMEMBER, this is a PREVIEW. It is merely a prediction. The real rankings come out in November or December.
If you feel your student section isn’t ranked high enough or not ranked at all, let us know and we’ll keep a close eye on them.
Every week, we will also have Student Section of the Week for each state. Once you win Student Section of the Week, you can’t win it again, but you still have to battle for the top spot in your state and perhaps the Nation as we will also name a Football Student Section National Champion.
We continue with the 2024 Football Student Section Season with a preview of Alabama.
Alabama takes its football seriously and you can always bet that the Student Sections are no joke here. They know that the 12th Man is so important. There’s a solid list of Student Section here in Alabama!
Last Football season, we had Auburn Unit as the top Football Student Section in Alabama. The Unit went back-to-back last season and are looking for a threepeat, but you better believe other Student Sections will battle for the top spot and take down Auburn. We have noticed more Student Sections and it will be tough for The Unit to go for number three, but they’ll be ready for the challenge.
In each state, we will name one student section to look out for. A student section that doesn’t get talked about a lot by us or others and for Alabama we have to go with Huntsville. This is one of those Student Sections that we end up discovering a couple years after going coast to coast and not only do they definitely have a Student Section that will hang with the herd, this might be one of those Student Sections that will prevent a Auburn Unit threepeat happening. Just ask them, they’ll tell you and they aren’t solely focused on Alabama, they want the South title and the National Title. This is a hungry Student Section!
Will Huntsville make promise of the hype as the new big dawgs in the Yellowhammer State or will the Nest for back-to-back-to-back? Let’s find out.
2024 ALABAMA FOOTBALL TOP 40 STUDENT SECTION PRESEASON RANKINGS
- Auburn Unit
The Unit snuck by last season and it might be the same thing this fall. Several Student Sections will look to take down the Unit. They’ll have to do what The Unit did and that’s promote themselves on social media on a consistent basis. If no one can do that, then it’s a threepeat for The Unit!
