Thoughts:
Clemson football fans did a great job showing out and proving why the Tigers are one of the best fanbases in the country.
The brand of that paw is expanding and it’s clear to see that Clemson has moved itself up the charts due to the recent sustained success.
I would argue that Tiger nation is as good as fanbase in the country.
Clemson fans show up and show out for every home game and travel just as good as any fanbase in the country.
But, to be ahead of some huge brands like Texas, Penn State, Southern Cal, LSU, and others means a lot, at least in my book.
Clemson was also ranked in the top-100 overall for anything fan-wise. The No. 1 overall fanbase was for Ohio State, as a matter, which is a little surprising. I would’ve thought that spot would have belonged to a team like the Los Angeles Lakers, New York Yankees, or Dallas Cowboys, but you never know.
Next: Who will Clemson lose at the end of 2017?
No matter what though, it’s clear to see that the Clemson brand is becoming more and more recognizable. 10 years ago, people couldn’t tell you where Clemson was on a map. Now, that brand has pretty much become a household name.
It’s certainly a special time to be a Tiger.
