2024 INDIANA FINAL TOP 40 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

Off front, Northern, Previews, Student Section Buzz,

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 Indiana 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 Indiana. We had Cathedral Irish Nightmare winning it in 2022 and Bishop Chatard Trojan Nation in 2023.

This state is loaded with insane and amazing Student Sections. It helps when a TV channel in Indianapolis where the best Student Section in that region gets a banner. That has open the floodgates in regards to school spirit. Hats off to WISH-TV The Zone.

We will have 5 Student Sections in Indiana 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 Hoosier State.

2024 INDIANA FINAL TOP 40 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

RED = PLAYOFF BOUND

  1. Fishers Tiger Cage (2023 Rank: 3)

I’ve been waiting for a good time to put Fisher at the top and Thank God that Anthony Calhoun (known as AC) from WISH-TV picked Fishers as The Zone Student Section Champions because it opened the door for me to put the Tigers as the best in Indiana. The Tiger Cage always packs the stand and they have a blast in said stands! Good luck trying to call a play if Fishers is in your way. The Tiger Cage will look to vote in the National Student Section playoffs as they look for the National Championship banner, but for now, they’re the 2024 Indiana Football Student Section of the Year!

  1. Noblesville Miller Nation (2023 Rank: 10)

Miller Nation not only can pack the stands, but they have an endless amount of energy in said stands! We’ll see how they’ll fare in the National Student Section playoffs that start pretty soon.

  1. Brownsburg Bone Zone (2023 Rank: 13)

What they lack in size, they make up for rowdiness and craziness…you get what I mean. This Student Section will let you know how much they support their football team even if you don’t want to know. They have an endless amount of noise. We’ll see how they’ll fare in the National Student Section playoffs that start pretty soon.

  1. Roncalli R-Block (2023 Rank: 24)

What can R-Block do for you? Well, they can make your life a nightmare if you’re playing against Roncalli! R-Block dominated this fall! We’ll see how they’ll fare in the National Student Section playoffs that start pretty soon.

  1. Carmel Hound Pound (2023 Rank: 22)

Carmel is one of the more fuller Student Sections you’ll see in Indiana. Glad to see the Hound Pound back in the Top 5. We’ll see how they’ll fare in the National Student Section playoffs that start pretty soon.
