A statewide survey conducted by Overton Insights identifies Texas A&M Aggies fans as the most obnoxious in Texas. The study, sponsored by the Texas Public Policy Foundation, shows that 29.7% of voters consider the Aggies the most difficult fan base, narrowly placing them ahead of Texas Longhorns fans, who received 27.4% of the vote. Political affiliation influences these findings, with Democratic voters more likely to label Aggies fans as obnoxious and Republican voters identifying Texas fans in that category. Other universities included in the report are the University of Houston, Texas Tech, Baylor, SMU, and TCU. While Texas A&M and Texas lead current polling, age-based data indicates a potential shift in sentiment among younger voters, who rank Texas Tech as the most obnoxious fan base. These findings highlight the ongoing intensity surrounding college football rivalries across the state.
