2024 ARKANSAS FINAL TOP 40 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

The time has come to start ranking 50 states that we covered this football season. 

To say I’m overwhelmed with the work that comes along with this is a huge huge understatement.

We had 11 Student Section of the Week winners in Arkansas and that helped us determine who had the best Student Section and which ones wanted it more.

Just showing up in large crowds isn’t enough. It might fool other outlets that don’t cover Student Sections, but not us. We have to know how bad you want it and marketing is key. 

You will see top-notch Student Sections miss out at the top spot, but we kept saying it over and over and over again, in order to be considered number one, you have to win the Student Section of the Week title. Otherwise, what is the point of having that contest?!

I know Student Sections complain but remember it’s thousands of Student Sections and only me. Social media is your friend if used correctly.

A Student Section that doesn’t post videos or photos of there Student Section on a consistent basis is like a tree falling with no one around. It doesn’t make any noise.

This is our third year covering Football Student Sections in Arkansas. We had Bryant Swarm winning it in 2022 and in 2023.

We are still trying to figure out Arkansas. Some solid Student Sections, but it’s not as deep this fall. Hopefully we see that change in the winter.

We will have 2 Student Sections in Arkansas that will be voting in the Student Section playoffs that will begin soon.

So, let’s see who made the list and who is the best in the Razorback State.

2024 ARKANSAS FINAL TOP 40 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

RED = PLAYOFF BOUND

1. Fayetteville Dawgpound (2023 Rank: 12)

The Dawgpound showed off their Student Section on a consistent basis and when they did, they looked crazy and loud. A pretty good combo for Fayetteville and a problem for every opponent. We’ll see how far they will go when they vote in the National Football Student Section playoffs, but for now they’re the 2024 Arkansas Football Student Section of the Year!

2. Bentonville West Den (2023 Rank: 2)

The Den has shown consistency as they break in the Top 3 again. It is always a party when you’re in the Den. We’ll see if they can market and promote the voting in the National Football Student Section playoffs!

3. Vilonia Jort Squad (2023 Rank: 17)

Jort Squad never took a day off in the stand or on social media when it came to showing off their Student Section. We always saw the Jort Squad in action on Instagram. That got them in the Top 3.

4. Bentonville (2023 Rank: 16)

Bentonville makes the big leap from 16 to 4 thanks to a packed and loud crowd this season.

5. Searcy Jungle (2023 Rank: 7)

The Jungle packed the stands this season and the Black Out Theme looks solid for the Jungle as they break in the Top 5.
