We continue our Final Rankings in all of the 50 states we covered this football season.  To say I’m overwhelmed with the work that comes along with this is an understatement. We had Student Section of the Week for over 10 weeks and that helped us determine who had the best Student Section and which one 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 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...

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 and now we add our friends from the North in Canada on top of dividing Texas into two regions, similar to what we did with California. 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 good friends at OC Student Sections and Stadium Geeks with help from Maryland Student Section Rater, NorCal Student Sections and many more. This year we plan to get several "barstool"...

Bishop Manogue Goldmine (2024 Rank: 24) 2024-2025 WINTER STUDENT SECTION NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!! I have been trying to get Bishop Manogue involved in the Student Section scene when we first began to cover Nevada in 2021, but it was tough. I had them in the middle of the herd and then, they found us and they ran with it! Forget bring the best in Nevada, they wanted more than that! They wanted to be the best of the best in the nation! It helps to get Jack of all Fades (@jack_of_all_fades on Instagram) to post the insanity of the Goldmine! This Student Section was over the top and put them on the map in Nevada. Bishop Manogue really had to battle in the voting in the National Winter Student Section Playoffs, beating some of the very...

Orem Ambush (2024 Rank: 7) The Ambush got the year started off hot with an amazing video. It was not a surprise to us as they have been on a roll this school year. The Ambush put themselves on the map and that is tough to do in one of the deepest states in the nation when it comes to Student Sections! Orem got the most votes to take the top spot in the state and came close to making it to the Final Four in the Winter Student Section Playoffs! It was an incredible year for this Student Section and they end it on a high note as the Orem Ambush is your 2024-2025 Utah Winter Student Section of the Year! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DE9W9wTOlws/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Olympus O-Zone (2024 Rank: 2) Lone Peak Uknighted (2024 Rank: 23) American...

2024-25 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WINTER STUDENT SECTION TOP 40 RANKINGS Great Oak Red Wave (2024 Rank: 2) I mean this shouldn't come as a surprise. The Red Wave is a powerhouse of a Student Section not just in Southern California, but in the country. They've set the standard and have remained a consistent power in the stands for awhile now. The social media game is at another level and they pack the stands and go nuts, sometimes on the court! They made it to the Final Four of the National Winter Student Section Playoffs and were the favorites to win it all. Look at this Student Section the same way you look at Duke Basketball, they're always the favorite you drop your jaw when they are out in the playoffs brackets. While they were a round away...
