Good atmosphere, good tailgating, rabid fans without being a embarrassing cult, talent, head coach with personality

No truly embarrassing traditions or multiple mascot issues.

LSU : Alabama :: Red Sox : Yankees

There are a LOT of LSU sidewalk fans in surprising places. Why? Who's "the evil empire?" Who beats them more often than anyone else?

Because of our uniforms? Don't get me wrong I like our uniforms, but it just seems to me that if uniforms is a reason you would be a fan then you would either be a fan of a team like Oregon that is all over the place, or you would be a fan of an old school ND, Penn St, Bama. Whatever though, I'll take it.

He was saying that the Oregon uniforms are too much but penn st, bama are too boring. Ours are different but still classic

Agreed. LSU fans are not a cult though.

Dumb and overly negative? Yes often.
