I did some figuring using latest rankings of "smartest states" to see which conference has the dumbest fan base. Yes, I was bored. Anyways, I found the average ranks of the home states of each conference's football members. The "brain power" score is the average rank among member states.
Smartest fan bases
1. Big East (20.5)
2. ACC (20.75)
3. Big 12 (22.58)
4. Big 10 (26.54)
5. MAC (31)
6. C-USA (32.67)
7. Mountain West (34.7)
8. Sunbelt (35.15)
9. SEC (37.42) -Not one member state in top half
10. WAC (38.9)
11. Pac 10 (43.4)-Not one member state in top half
This goes to show that Auburn fans have an extremely dumb fan base.
