2024 NEVADA FINAL TOP 40 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

Off front, Previews, Southwest, 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 Nevada 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 fourth year covering Football Student Sections in Nevada. We had the Liberty Patriot Pit win it in 2021 & 2023 and the Bishop Gorman G-Block in 2022.

This is a state has some crazy Student Sections that have been at the top, but up until now, we have had other Student Section show up here and there. That has changed this fall and you’ll see that in the rankings.

We will have 3 Student Sections in Nevada 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 Silver State.

2024 NEVADA FINAL TOP 40 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS

RED = PLAYOFF BOUND

  1. Las Vegas (2023 Rank: 9)

I kept going back and forth with the Liberty Patriot Pit and Las Vegas, but what made me make this decision was Las Vegas social media work. They marketed themselves so well and showed off their school spirit almost every week. Their amazing promotion got them the top spot. 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 Nevada Football Student Section of the Year!

  1. Liberty Patriot Pit (2023 Rank: 1)

This was a close one. The Patriot Pit is always at the top of the Football Student Section Rankings. Such an amazing Student Section that is consistent. Amazing Student Section leaders every year. I made the tip to Las Vegas to see the Patriot Pit and they did not disappoint. We’ll see if the hype goes into the Student Section playoffs when they begin to vote pretty soon!

  1. Arbor View Red Sea (2023 Rank: 13)

I always wondered if the Red Sea would show up on social media on a regular basis. Well, they showed up in 2024 and this is not only a fantastic football team, but an amazing Student Section as they will vote in the National Football Student Section playoffs!

  1. Spanish Springs Cougar Den (2023 Rank: 3)

The Cougar Den rinsed and repeat this fall. An amazing Student Section that showed off their school spirit on social media. The Cougar Den knows the playbook.

  1. Bishop Gorman G-Block (2023 Rank: 2)

While this is an unusual spot for the G-Block to be at in the 5 spot, this Student Section didn’t promote themselves that much and thankfully we saw them in the background in a couple of posts. We went to the Liberty/Bishop Gorman game this year and the G-Block did not make the trip. Dropping a few spots this year might be a boost to market themselves in 2025. This is a fantastic Student Section.
