in college football?

I say no. Top 15 but trending down. The Orgeron hire was a negative hit to the brand.

It’s a top 10 easily. When you have the most players in the NFL, and a lot of them are stars, you will constantly be talked about. You do realize LSU is one of the greatest teams of this century right? Also throw in the best stadium, and home field advantage in college football.

I’d say 1 or 2 for the overall football experience.

Texas A& M is number 1, followed by Southern Cal.

Regional at best. Alabama is the only top 10 SEC brand due to their recent success. There are way more Michigan, Penn State, Notre Dame, Texas, USC, Ohio State fans across the country than there are any SEC schools.

I want to say Texas has led the way in merchandise sales the past 20 years or so.

Yes, absolutely,
That’s why when I tuned into SiriusXM 80 for this past week they were talking about LSU for a solid 30 minutes. That’s why people actually care about our coaching hire, because we are such a huge brand

Only three brands in the SEC probably bigger, Bama, Florida, Georgia

Otherwise nationally, Ohio State, Clemson, Michigan, USC, maybe Oklahoma/Texas, those are debatable

We are right there in the discussion for top 10 brand

I guess they still are but they are trending down pretty fast. If LSU can win 10 games this year then I would keep them top 10. Still have one of the best stadiums, gameday experience and crazy but loyal fanbase.

This is about as idiotic a thing I’ve read on this board and that’s saying something. A&M fans wouldn’t even make this claim

Beside ‘Bama In the SEC Florida has a ton of fans nationally. So does Tennessee and Georgia. I see their merch all over.

Texas A&M isn’t even the number 1 fan base in Texas.

Can’t help you if you can’t read. It’s a prerequisite to message boards.

That's only 7. Need to come up with a few more to make "regional brand" accurate.

Notre Dame
Alabama
USC
UT
OSU
Oregon
Michigan
Miami
Florida
LSU


I’d say that’s the top 10 in no particular order though those first five are probably the highest.


Who am I forgetting?

Yes.

While only a borderline top 10 program on the field, historically (it falls somewhere in the 10-15 range), Saturday Night in Death Valley is known as the best experience in football. The culture is well known and well publicized.

It's certainly a Top 10 brand. That's ridiculous to not think so.


But it can be lost quickly if not guarded with strength and resilience.
