- Canby (2024 Rank: NR)
Canby is one of those Student Sections we just recently discovered and they have proved us pretty quickly that they’re a power not to be messed with in Oregon! Stacked in the stands, Canby is a strong 6th Man for their basketball team and is ready to rattle! While I hoped Canby would’ve made a deeper run in the National Winter Student Section playoffs, one thing no one can take from them is this; the 2024-2025 Oregon Winter Student Section title!

Ladies and gentlemen, we have discovered a new powerhouse in the Montana Student Section scene and its Gallatin!

Ok, I need to make a trip to see this battle involving a Fish because that Student Section battle is intense and insane! You have to be a big deal if you take down some of the top Student Sections in Idaho and Lake City did that! This Student Section not only packs the stands, but they are nuts in said stands! No surprise that these Students went after the voting poll to secure the top spot in the state and a chance to battle for the National Title! Don’t sleep on Idaho Student Sections and don’t sleep on Lake City as they’re the 2024-2025 Idaho Winter Student Section of the Year!

2024-25 NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WINTER STUDENT SECTION TOP 25 RANKINGS
- Dublin Gauntlet (Last Year Rank: NR)
The Dublin Student Section discovered us at the beginning of the new year and let it be known that they’re the best Student Section in NorCal. Luckily for them, I was in the area to give a local Student Section their Football Student Section National Championship Banner and had time to check them out in-person. They weren’t lying. This is a crazy Student Section and they proved it in the voting as well. This is just standard basic work for Dublin.
“It’s what we do. It’s great to be a Gael!”
We will see how this Student Section fares in the fall with that local Student Section foe, but one thing is for sure, the Dublin Gauntlet is your 2024-25 Northern California Winter Student Section of the Year!

One of the very few Student Sections we discovered more than once. Nome-Beitz had plenty to cheer about and now they’ll have to prepare to vote in the National Winter Student Section playoffs as they’ll represent Alaska…because they’re the 2024-25 Alaska Winter Student Section Champions!
- Wasilla (Last Year: NR)
This Student Section is as rowdy as the parents. Probably not dressed as crazy as the parents, but still rowdy nevertheless.
- Service (Last Year: 4)
If they can rock it during football season outside the Alaska weather, then you can bet the Service Student Section is nut indoors for basketball.

- 2024 WASHINGTON 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 10 Student Section of the Week winners in Washington 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 Washington. We had Bothell Blue Train win it in 2021, Eastlake Red Sea in 2022 and Mount Si Red Sea in 2023.
This is a state is packed with insane Student Sections! You’ll see in this years rankings that it has changed. Perhaps we have some new social media powers in Washington. You market your Student Section and show it off on Instagram, you will get rewarded.
We will have 4 Student Sections in Washington 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 Evergreen State.

- Kamiakin (2023 Rank: 7)
Kamiakin didn’t post much in the past, but they doubled up on the marketing this year and it paid off as they rocked the stands this fall. One of bigger Student Sections in Washington. We’ll see if Run Kano can make some noise when they vote in the National Football Student Section playoffs, but for now, they’re the 2024 Washington Football Student Section of the Year!
- Inglemoor Viking Ship (2023 Rank: 5)
The Viking Ship has been consistent on Instagram, but I felt like I saw more of them this season. They have a a fantastic Student Section that deserved another Top 5 finish. We’ll see if the Viking Ship can make some noise when they vote in the National Football Student Section playoffs
- Glacier Peak (2023 Rank: 4)
Nobody can pack the house like Glacier Peak. They have been very consistent in showing off their Student Section over the years! We’ll see if Glacier Peak can make some noise when they vote in the National Football Student Section playoffs

The Pack looks like it can be intense. It explains why they’re a Top 5 Student Section every year. We’ll see if the Pack can make some noise when they vote in the National Football Student Section playoffs

When we started covering Student Sections in 2015, it began with only Orange County, California. We expanded in 2017 to Southern California and it was the leaders of the 2020 Turlock Dogpound that asked us when we will extend out coverage, we went to six states and then 20 states, then 40 states and now all 50 states. We appreciate the Dogpound for the encouragement.
We will have 5 Student Sections in Northern California that will be voting in the Student Section playoffs that will begin soon.

- De La Salle 12th Man (2023 Rank: 13)
De La Salle is always known for its football. Everyone knows it, but it might be time to give the 12th Man some credit because they crushed it this fall! They packed the stands and were savages in the stands! Social media marketing was on point. They loved showing off their Student Section on Instagram.

The Laker Army social media game went nuts this fall and it definitely caught my attention. They pack and I mean packed the stands and had themselves a party while also cheering on their team.

The Rowdies is such a fitting name for this Student Section. Like many Student Sections across the country, they went bananas. We’ll see how they fare in the National Student Section playoffs on Monday!
- Owyhee Storm (2023 Rank: 9)
The Storm has been one of the consistent Student Section that we’ve seen over the past three years. They can pack the stands and it looks like they enjoyed the red, white and blue theme as did some of the football players.
- Rigby Maroon Militia (2023 Rank: 4)
Maroon Militia can pack the stands at a high school game or a high school game being played at a college game. Wherever it is, Maroon Militia will be there.

- 2024 MONTANA FINAL TOP 20 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 Montana 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 Montana. We had Billings Central Catholic in 2022 and Hamilton win it in 2023.
This is a state that isn’t as deep as other states in the Student Section scene, but it definitely grew this fall. We hope it continues to grow in 2025.
We will have 2 Student Sections in Montana 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 Mountain State.
2024 MONTANA FINAL TOP 20 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS
RED = PLAYOFF BOUND
- Hamilton (2023 Rank: 1)
When it comes to working social media, no one does it better in Montana than Hamilton. They love to promote their school spirit and for good reason. We’ll see how they’ll fare in the National Student Section playoffs, but for now, they are the back-to-back Montana Football Student Section Champions!
- Gallatin (2023 Rank: 17)
Rain or shine, snow or sun, Gallatin Student Section shows up no matter what! We’ll see how they fare in the National Student Section playoffs.
- Hellgate (2023 Rank: NR)
This looks like a fun Student Section. They can pack the stands and go wild! Definitely a boost for their football team!
- Fergus (2023 Rank: 18)
That sign is amazing! It’s giving awesome, which is convenient because so is this Student Section.
- East Helena (2023 Rank: NR)
Probably one of the more fuller Student Section in the state. Definitely worthy of a Top 5 finish.
- Capital Party Zone (2023 Rank: 2)
- Big Fork (2023 Rank: 5)
- Polson (2023 Rank: NR)
- Bozeman (2023 Rank: 8)
- Glacier (2023 Rank: 20)
- Billings Central Catholic (2023 Rank: 4)
- Laurel Locos (2023 Rank: 11)
- Sentinel (2023 Rank: 3)

- Frenchtown (2023 Rank: NR)
- 2024 ALASKA FINAL TOP 15 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 an understatement.
We had 8 Student Section of the Week winners in Alaska 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.
This is our third year covering Student Sections in Alaska, so we hope we were accurate.
We did see a small improvement in the Student Section scene this fall in Alaska and we hope to see more improvements in 2025.
The Alaska Football Student Section Champion will move on to Regionals Student Section Playoffs in hopes to get the National Student Section Playoffs and hopefully obtain the National Student Section Championship banner as voting will get involved in November!
So, let’s see who made the list and who is the best in The Last Frontier State.
2024 ALASKA FINAL TOP 15 FOOTBALL STUDENT SECTION RANKINGS
- Service
It is very rare to find a Student Section showing off their school spirit in Alaska and I mean very rare, but Service has school spirit and they weren’t afraid to show it in September. They may have a low seed in the Northwest Regional Student Section playoffs, but they are in the playoffs as Service is your 2024 Alaska Football Student Section Champions!
- Palmer
Palmer goes to battle and so does its Student Section, but it is all love and friendship after the game with Wasilla.
- Wasilla
Despite losing to Palmer, I do appreciate the sportsmanship…and a nice beverage from Elwoods!
- Soldotna
One of the big dawgs in football in this state is Soldotna and this year the Student Section celebrated their coach 160th win this past month, the most in Alaska! Plus their social media is pretty active in reminders and themes for the Student Section.
- Dimond
One of the better football programs in the state definitely has to come with a solid Student Section.

- 2024 WASHINGTON 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 Washington.
This state has several fantastic Student Sections. One of the nations best kept secrets when it comes to Student Sections. This state is deep in school spirit.
Last Football season, we had the Mount Si Red Sea as the top Football Student Section in Washington. The Red Sea made the best of Eastlake Red Sea not being as active on social media and if they return, then Mount Si better double up on their social media game and not only that, but other Student Sections will be coming after them for the number one spot.
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 Washington, we have to go with Skyline. They’re off to a solid start this fall and if they keep showing off their school spirit, they will finish with the best of them this fall.
Will Skyline take the top spot in the state or will the Red Sea take another one in the Evergreen State? Let’s find out.
2024 WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TOP 40 STUDENT SECTION PRESEASON RANKINGS
- Eastlake Red Sea
The Red Sea has stated in the past that they are the best Student Section in Washington and when they post photos and videos of their Student Section, it definitely shows, but they have to be consistent in promoting and showing off their Student Section on Instagram in order to prove that this is an all-year powerhouse kind of Student Section. The Red Sea should prove they’re the Kings of Washington.

We continue with the 2024 Football Student Section Season with a preview of Oregon.
Oregon is deep in the Student Sections scene. So many fantastic Student Sections in this state and some of them that are in the Top 25 could battle for a state title in a different state. We can’t wait to see how this state fares this fall.
Last Football season, we had the West Linn as the top Football Student Section in Oregon. It will be tough for West Linn to repeat with so many Student Sections battling for the top spot. This isn’t one of those state where it’s a one-man show. This state is up for grabs.
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 Oregon, we have to go with Beaverton. We always felt Beaverton was one of those solid Student Sections, but they don’t show it off on social media. If they show off their Student Section on Instagram this fall, they could battle for a State Student Section title.
Will Beaverton take the top spot in the state or will West Linn take another one in the Sooner State? Let’s find out.
2024 OREGON FOOTBALL TOP 40 STUDENT SECTION PRESEASON RANKINGS
- Ida B. Wells
Wells can pack the stands and go wild every week and love to show off their Student Section. They have told me they are the best and have a solid reason to mention that. We just discovered them late last season and we can tell we found a new top dawg in Oregon.

We continue with the 2024 Football Student Section Season with a preview of Montana.
We are still trying to figure out Montana, but we did discover some great Student Sections last season and we expect to see some more big ones in Montana.
Last Football season, we had the Hamilton as the top Football Student Section in Montana. Hamilton is starting to look a dynasty of a Student Section in Montana. Can anyone share their Student Sections as much as Hamilton? I guess we’ll find out.
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 Montana, we have to go with the Sentinel Party Zone. The Party Zone showed off their school spirit quite well last basketball season and I can see them battling with Hamilton this fall for the top spot.
Will the Mighty Mad Cows take the top spot in the state or will Rowdy Red take another one in the Mountain State? Let’s find out.
