Hey fuck all you haters!
University of Texas is America's "Coolest College Football Team"
The
College Football season has (very sadly) come to a close. A big shoutout to Ohio State for clinching the recent national title!
To celebrate, The Action Network has put together a ranking of the
Coolest College Football teams.
But let's plunge into how we define "coolness" amongst these football powerhouses.
Spoiler: The criteria are about as diverse as the fans themselves!
Methodology in a Nutshell
Our data-driven approach ensures fairness in the rivalry. We collected stats from trusted sources to create the ultimate "Cool Score." Each team was evaluated on revenue (blame those accountants!), Micro Breweries near campuses (perfect for pre-game rituals), city population figures, search volume for tailgating and team interest, current rankings, championships won, and current season win vs. loss records. It’s all about blending Value, Culture, and Performance to score our contenders.
Calculation of the 'Cool Score'
Factors were assigned weights like a pro-diet plan:
30% Value,
30% Culture, and
40% Performance, balanced with the grace of a perfect spiral pass.
Scores were standardized and weighted, with higher scores winning bragging rights.
Texas Longhorns — The Coolest College Football Team
The
Texas Longhorns top our list with a
dazzling Cool Score of 100. This team has more charisma than a double overtime game!
With a population base in Austin of 931,840, their following is as robust as their brew scene featuring 25 microbreweries.
Revenue streams hit a high at $271 million. Four championships and a stellar 13-3 record this season justify their headline status, attracting 450,000 searches alone.
