These are our people.

And no less than LIFE magazine says so. Well, they are relying on the Facebook Lexicon to make the determination. The service examines how often a specific topic is mentioned and them maps it out. LIFE did a search on the word "football" and, lo and behold, even though there are more than 100 days till the season gets started again, the Yellow Hammer State done come out on top.

Actually,

it looks like Oklahoma (.164%) has talked more about football than Alabama (.163%), by one, one-thousandth of one percent.
