50 College Football Coaches Reveal Their Favorite Country Artists

Country music and college football are a match made in heaven — there’s something about a good football game that is made even better with a country soundtrack. Fans of the genre tend to be fans of the game, too, and — as it turns out — college football coaches return their admiration.

Action Network surveyed all 133 head coaches in the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) and asked them who their favorite musician is. While their answers vary from genre to genre, there are a whopping fifty coaches who called out a country act as their top choice of music to listen to.

Some of the most popular choices on this list? George Strait, Eric Church and Luke Combs  — and of course there’s some home state love for a few artists.
