Football VolNation do you cheer for the SEC in Bowl Games

I don't. I know alot of people that say "weez in the SEC and we like brothers we fight with each other, but when our brothers play somebody from another conference we cheer for our brothers"

I know you want your team to look good, there was apart of me last year that wanted UF to win just so I could say "we had them beat if it wasnt for a ticky tac roughing the QB penalty." Well forget that any time Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Vandy or any other team from the SEC take the field I want them to lose by 30.

Tennessee doesn't get any extra recruits for Florida, Auburn or LSU winning the NC. If anything we lose recruits.

GO VOLS ;GO ALL THE WAY TO THE GOD SUGAR BOWL!

No. I'm a Tennessee fan, not an SEC fan. I don't root for any SEC teams unless it directly impacts our standings or ranking in a positive way.

I'll never cheer for Bama or Florida and rarely Georgia. After that, it depends on the competition.

I'm indifferent on Florida, if they lose that's cool if the win (OoC) I could care less.

Generally, yes, i will pull for SEC teams....and usually will regardless if it's against ACC or Big 10 teams.

Generally I'll lean toward the SEC, but I couldn't pull for UGA for more than 2 quarters if my life depended on it.

Same. I'd say I root for the SEC team 90% of the time.

the only time i really remember not rooting for an SEC team was when FL played Neb in the Fiesta bowl in Jan. 1996. i was very pleased about that game.

i rooted for FL last year against OSU....which is to say at the end of the game i simply said....OSU sucks.

and i rooted for Bama against Miami in the 93 Sugar Bowl...that was a great game, even if it was Bama.

and i rooted for LSU agaisnt OK as well.......

By default I cheer against Bama and Florida.

If either were playing Notre Dame, I don't know what I would do.
