I know...but ask any Bama fan who their biggest rival is...they won't say Tennessee...

intra-state rivalries are just more intense...

Wrong...ask any long time Bama fan 35 years old or greater and they will tell you it is Tennessee

Florida is still a more important game to win.

A win or loss against them hits twofold as it bumps one up and the other down in the East and is a tiebreaker.

A win against Bama is great, but being in the west, it only affects our SEC record and does not benefit us as much as beating Florida or Georgia.

The question was "who is our biggest rival"?

Florida or Georgia are neither as important as Alabama

they never have felt the same way IMO...

Bama has always had Auburn and UF has had FSU...

I disagree about bammer. Like here it is more about age. They used to not even play Aub but have always played UT. The UT bammer rivalry is what football in the South is all about. bammers downturn and ours has soured it a little. But all in all it is still what football in the South is all about.

Beating Florida or Georgia is a better way of making sure we're playing in the SEC Championship. Alabama is not someone we're competing with for the whole season.

If we beat Florida and Georgia, but lose to Alabama, chances are we're playing in the SEC Championship.

Lose to Florida or Georgia, but beat Bama? Who knows. Then we're just hoping that Florida or Georgia had a worse season.

Everyone on this board knows which division we're in. It has nothing to do with rankings, championships, or bowl games. It has to do with hatred sir. Pure unalduterated hatred.

Have to be able to compete to call someone a rival.

wrong. it just makes it that much worse losing to our biggest and longest rival.

as i explain to my Texas U friends, Florida is to Oklahoma as Bama is to A&M. Guess along those lines, Vandy is more like Baylor.

When's the last time we beat Florida and Georgia in the same season? I can't remember.

I keep praying for the years when We will play Bama twice in one season for all the marbles and flat out blister them...Think about it, UT/Bama TWICE on one season...May god have mercy on all our souls because that will be HELL!

Florida is nothing more to me than UGA or anyone else in the SEC.

I hate everything about Alabama, they will always be the one time that I base the season off of. I absolutely, positively Hate Alabama.
