The article ends with:
"So settle down, Kentucky fans.

We all know you're actually No. 1."

And yet the only two comments are Kentucky fans complaining about the "methodology" of the study. But, but, but.... we sell out!

I'll take it, but the methodology is a bit dubious.  They are really measuring brand equity, and even then the analysis seems a bit half baked.  I'm pretty sure Kansas would be in the top 10 of best fan bases or most brand equity.

Only non-football team in the top 10.

If you want to call it that. It is like suggesting the Jacksonville Jaguars are a "real" NFL football team.

I guess Duke plays in the ACC, but if they were in the SEC or Big 10, they would be 0-12

This is all wrong.  We all know that Dayton is number 1.

Surprised not to see Kansas on this list...even if the methodology is questionable.
