Curious here. Does the pro team or cfb team have more name recognition? Legal issues aside, it makes me think of that terrible place where Marshawn Lynch ran over everyone on the saints d in one play. :yak:

Seattle for me.

I dont really think of it until I watch either Texas A and M or Seattle play. Then you have the commenters being all like "ERRMYYGERRDH IT"S SO LOUD!!! THEY HAVE A 12TH MAN!!"

A&M because they have pushed it in a big way for a long time.

Besides, the 12th man for Seattle is the architect of the stadium who did what they wanted: create a structure that keeps in all the crowd noise.

Lulz, troll.

The 12th Man at TAMU dates back to the early 1920's.

I'm from Texas so obviously A&M but Seattle is a better atmosphere no doubt.

Iowa claims it started before that but its all nonsense. When people hear 12th man they think of Seattle.

Totally depends on where you are from and the relative success of the teams at the time.

I've gotta give the nod to Seattle. I paid almost no attention to A&M until they joined the SEC.

I think of a&m. I didn't even know Seattle had a 12th man claim until a couple years ago

Most SEC fans think of Bama and the 12th Man first...aka the lead referee in any conference game.
