Maybe Michigan with the Wings? He has UM football which is huge but MSU is bigger (more students) and has a pretty big footprint.

They love the Wings there


I've lived in Michigan for a long period of time. They do love their wings, but not as much as people think. IMO it goes 1. Lions 2. Tigers 3. UofM Football 4.MSU Football 5.Red Wings 6. Pistons.

Not in West Tennessee. The Grizzlies dominate the discussion in Memphis, along with the Tigers. The talk here is more general SEC than UT football, they honestly talk more about Ole Miss than they do UT.

I'm not sure how Nashville is, but I assume the Titan's get a ton of coverage there.


Memphis (and West Tennessee) definitely support the Grizzlies and Memphis Tigers. And yes, Ole Miss potentially has a bigger presence than the University of Tennessee in Memphis. However, Tennessee football has to dominate the entire state. Eastern Tennessee is essentially 100% Vols. Sure, Chattanooga has a Georgia and Alabama draw, but it's arguably still dominated by Tennessee. Knoxville and Johnson City are essentially 100% Tennessee football.

Nashville is more of a Tennessee town than a Vanderbilt or Titans. The Nashville Predators are arguably more of a draw than the Titans. I don't think too many people in Middle and Eastern Tennessee care about the Grizzlies or Ole Miss.
