College football still has more fans than NASCAR outside of rural areas.

I'd also add college football to the conservative fan list.  The culture around college football is very conservative, it's most popular in deeply red states, and it is where the chant that led to the "Let's go Brandon" chant was popularized.

We can break it down by conference.  In order I'd say SEC, Big 12, ACC, Big 10 and Pac 12.

Indeed.  I was going to say just that.

Pac 12 fans lean Democratic. Utah, only red state team in the conference, is located in a blue area of the state.

Yeah, I was thinking NFL with my comment but CFB probably has a more conservative fanbase just because outside of USC most the big time CFB programs are in pretty red areas. Even in the Big 10 it's more of an even split and the actual fanbases probably skew a bit more conservative relative to the region.

Don稚 NASCAR fans tend to be even whiter and more rural than SEC football fans?

No doubt.  Which is why the poll results are what they are.

NASCAR and it isn't even close.

Though this data was very interesting.

There is no place in America where NASCAR is more popular than NFL.

Columbia is in a relatively blue area of my State, but even so, USC has a reddish fan base, and I wouldn't really call it a big time CFB program. Southern Cal is blueish and is a big time CFB program, and some people do call them USC, tho that really should be the shorthand for the Gamecocks' school, not the Trojans'.

Football. If you have no brain why would the danger bother you.

It's probably NASCAR though.

Hockey is an underrated answer, since the vast majority of their fans are white people from the suburbs.

Yes. See Long Island, Minneapolis suburbs, etc.
