The Ohio State Buckeyes and Alabama Crimson Tide have some of the most loyal and diehard fans in college football, and it seems their approach to supporting their teams has made them two of the most annoying fan bases in the sport.

There are no bigger names in the world of college football than Ohio and Alabama. The powerhouse schools continue to find elite coaches that develop high-level prospects into the next stars of the sport. Their decades of success have also cultivated massive fan bases in and around their home states. Yet, those fans are not popular among their contemporaries.

In a new survey by Sports Handle of over 2,000 college football fans, the Crimson Tide received 22% of the vote when asked which fanbase is the most annoying. They were followed by the Buckeyes at 14% and then the defending champion Michigan Wolverines with 9% of the vote. Notre Dame and Texas rounded out the top five.

Another unsurprising, but nonetheless funny, addition to the poll revealed that Michigan fans viewed rivals Ohio State as the most annoying as the Buckeyes got 52%. Conversely, 42% of OSU fans felt Wolverine supporters were the most irritating in the sport.

On the flip side of the spectrum, the Sports Handle poll revealed that the Auburn Tigers, Oklahoma Sooners, and Colorado Buffaloes were viewed as the least annoying as they garnered just 2% of the vote. The survey also revealed some other interesting results, including who fans see as the favorite to win the Heisman Trophy in 2024. Those results can be found below.

The survey was conducted between June 13 and June 17 of this year. The sample comprises 2,005 college football fans across the United States of America.
