re: Major town's fanbases in your state

Jackson and Delta area are predominately State while everything North is Ole Miss. The coast is shared between both schools competing with USM.

10-12 years ago it seemed Jackson was more evenly split between Ole Miss and State. Things may have changed since I lived there.

The north Delta seems to have a few more Ole Miss fans than south of Hwy. 6. Proximity, I guess.

Further south in Mississippi, and particularly southwest Mississippi and the Coast, there's a lot of LSU fans, as well.

The number of LSU stickers on cars with USM parking stickers in Hattiesburg is mind boggling. They like to scream about how USM can kick State and Ole Miss's arse, then skip the USM game to go to an LSU game. Or even better, they wear their LSU attire to USM games and tell you the same.
