BATON ROUGE — Baton Rouge is up for USA Today's top 10 best college sports towns in the country.

"From metros to suburbs, each community is part of the fan base, the welcoming committee, the place to explore, celebrate, and to learn about the history of great teams throughout history—and, of course, the ones today," USA Today said of the award category. 

Other nominees include Oxford, Miss., Ann Arbor, Mich., Tuscaloosa, Ala., Knoxville, Tenn., and Gainesville, Fla.
