The Trojans have about 1.2 million fans, which ranks USC 17th nationally according to this formula devised by New York Times blogger Nate Silver.

Junior’s Deli just ran out of tongue tonight. Nice going JBoy, aka Prof Slob.
Another comment from Brother NOBS with a bit of a Jewish theme? Curious.
Where is Obama the Jew Hater tonight? OTJH, what do you think NOBS is getting at?
All of Bucket’s personalities were included in UCLA’s total. Remove them and they would rank only slightly above Utah.
1,234,871 and all we get is Scott Wolf….Pathetic.

Nothing lies like statistics
According to this “survey’s” guesstimates, 10% of Los Angeles fans root for another local college football team other than SC or uckla. I would say that is dubious.
Also, I bet USC’s fan base expanded nationally during the Carroll years. Everywhere I went SC was the targeted school to beat. So maybe the fans don’t “love” the opponent, but they sure do respect them. Add them apples to your “survey.”
And the teams of the year probably gain in popularity i.e. Oregon the past couple of years, Alabama 2 years ago, and Cam/Auburn last year. Perhaps OK this year.
With UCLA’s reputation as an elite academic institution, as well as the association with the basketball team being the greatest in college sports history, I’d say the UCLA count in this survey is low.
And my guess is the rats have started jumping off the sinking ship and SUC bandwagon gangbanger support has also eroded back to the Raiders, likely resulting in South Central JC being overrated in this study. Pretty soon you guys will be back to basically just having your “bros” from Newport rooting for you.
ucla dynasty you forgot women’s gymnastics for your splendid athletic reputation. No baseball titles, 1/2 of a football title back in 1954 or so which will continue this season. Marvelous turnout for Texas last Saturday which is probably closer to the real fan base. Maybe you have not noticed that THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA has moved ahead of Westwood Tech in the academic rankings.
Yes, when I’m deciding which team to root for, I immediately reach for the US News collegiate rankings. Also explains why Tennessee women’s basketball pushes Tennessee to the top of the list. Speaking of rats jumping off of sinking ships, I suspect UCLA had more fans in the Terry Donohue days.
I always thought it was ” Nothing lies like an attorney” Hmm.
@TROJANFAN: We also have Michael Lev at the OC Register. You might like his blog better: http://usc.ocregister.com/
He’s a troll, Wolf is THE MAN !
I find it extremely hard to believe that Oregon State has more fans nationally than Stanford does.
Stanford has a small alumni base. And when it comes to football, the bay area has 2 pro teams for fans to root for.
The only rats jumping around here are the big fat ones, along with the cockroaches and lice jumping from the rafters of that infested toilet bowl known as pauley!
We all know 50% of those counted for SUC are bandwagon fans that could not name two trOJans in the team…with the raiders sucking the thug team they can associate with are the cheating condoms.

Where are all the bandwagon Fucla fans that once filled the Rose Bowl (that USC owns) when UCLA was “decent” LOL….
STFU moronfag, fUsCk just had their lowest attendance since 2002 you a$$hole.
Moron, which decade was that? ROFLMAO
Prof Slob, how was your sandwich at Jr.’s Deli? ROFLMAOA

BRuinSlob, your boys are cute
Lowest attendance since 2002 and STILL more than the Rose Bowl! Probably because USC owns the Rose Bowl. Hahhahahaha.
BRuinSlob, hahahaha you are soooooo funny. What a douche bag. Go back to Jr’s for a sandwich. JBoy, I want to see your boys in their new dresses for school. Now that is funny.
Oh crap. Now my wife lost her job at the animal shelter after she gave the clap to half the dogs and a pot bellied pig…not me, the manger, that’s how they knew it was her!
JBoy, I mean nZerobs, one in the same…..I make enough money that MY wife doesn’t have to work.
Oh great, now Monty Kiffen is leaving messages for my wife saying he wants his $10 back. What the hell’s that all about?
