College Superfans: Utah State gives a geography lesson
Week 7 of the college football season contained some of the wildest endings the season has seen yet, along with an appearance from Tom Cruise at his first ever college football game.

Toledo moved to 6–0 with a win of Eastern Michigan, thanks in part to its opponents being terrified of these blank-faced superfans in the crowd. (They’re actually the guys from UTbluecrew.com.)

Oregon is in the midst of a down year, and even in the midst of a close win over rival Washington, this superfan looked a little down in the dumps. Perhaps he should snap into a Slim Jim.
