This is embarassing: UW #46 on fan index and behind Wazzu

That poll was before our bowl game victory over Ole Miss and you can't expect to beat undefeated Coug fans.

I think I can understand the whole social media mentions thing but wtf are voting points? Was their methodology listed anywhere? I look at average home attendance at 2015 and see UW at 59,485 and WSU at 29,407 and think this methodology is flawed (the whole people gawking at the coogs unusual success on twatter aside). Obviously if Clarence D. Martin Stadium was at capacity it would be a different story but it isn't.

I also found their social heat maps interesting where they show every team with 0 tweets. As best I can tell you get on the list by tweeting about #FanIndex which basically shows that USA is after a more blatant money grab than DJ. But I know that surprises nobody.

haie

Wazzu has the best fans. They were able to literally erase the fact that they won 3 games and were demolished by UW with *with* Falk from their collective memories.

Social media is a pretty lazy way to measure...and I'm too lazy to figure out the rest of their methodology.

How many people over 40 or 45 Tweet or post a lot of Facebook updates? My brother is 51 and he never posts anything. It makes sense that the _ucks almost led social media. Tons of their "fans" are bandwagon teens and Millenials who use social media more often and post way more updates.

I don't think Cooger fans loving a loser more than Husky fans do is anything to be embarrassed about.

UW and WSU have been a fucking disgrace recently. UW fans think it's bullshit, WSU fans still think they're awesome. I'm OK with that.

You want a good fan rating? Then win some fucking games.

Yeah, but coog license plates out-sold fusky (tee hee) license plates and the coogs got their flag on top of the Space Needle. So, coog fans good at everything!

Agree, but 59,485 is really low. Husky Stadium used to be jam packed at 72,000 and loud every weekend.

I know, 8:00 pm kick starts, years of losing/mediocrity, the damage Tyrone did...

Who fucking cares about national tweets. This is fucking bullshit and could hurt our chances at our Off Season Natty.

Fuck you.....who else's flag has been to EVERY game day? That's right bitches. Fly your flags. Cougar football, it's fast, it's furious. Don't blink. First downs, touchdowns and opposing QB's down like a hurricane came through town! That's Cougar football. Wave your flags!!!!!!
