Just a day after Penn State’s athletic department hailed the praises of Alabama fans, Kent State’s athletic director Joel Nielsen also sang the praises of Bama fans.

Nielsen sent a letter to a local paper praising how he and his football players were treated by Bama fans this past weekend. Kent State football players came down to Tuscaloosa in July to help with the rebuilding of homes after the devastating April tornadoes.

Nielsen said this about the Tide and their fans:
To say we were overwhelmed by the response from Crimson Tide fans this weekend would be an understatement. Our Alumni Office has been inundated with e-mails raving about the hospitality, generosity and extremely grateful attitude the Alabama nation displayed toward anyone wearing the blue and gold of Kent State.
To top it all off, the standing ovation our team received upon entering the stadium Saturday morning gave all of us Flashes fans in attendance goose bumps. It was something unheard of at a college football game, and speaks volumes about the citizens of Alabama and Crimson Tide fans everywhere.

The secret is out that the Bama fan base are some of the generous and most loyal fans in the country whether it’s in victory or defeat.
