With March in full swing, this is an annual debate amongst college basketball enthusiasts, and bragging rights are on the line. In Michigan, we usually have at least two teams representing the Mitten State, but only one made the list.

Wait...Los Angeles is #1? Seriously?

When I think of diehard basketball fans, I think of hardy Michiganders braving the elements, parking garages, and slippery sidewalks to show love for their favorite team. However, it seems WalletHub has named Los Angeles as America's collegiate b-ball town.

Oh, and not that it matters, but Ohio didn't make the Top 10...or Top 20...or Top 25. Cincinnati made 29th, but Columbus? Out of 296, they came in 145.
