Yeah, I guess from a Vol point of view, it is a pretty big rivalry. But, in Gainesville, it's not NEARLY as big as UF/FSU. It's ridiculous, because the game means more between UT/UF for sure, but UF fans hate FSU with such a passion, that gets overlooked. FSU/Miami starting this year is going to be A HUGE game yet again with UM entering the ACC.

And for the Auburn jokes, they're the biggest underachievers in the nation along with Virginia Tech in recent years.

Alabama and Auburn are the only two schools in the country whose war cry has nothing to do with their mascot
UNC Tarheels have a Ram. I guess it's more impressive than some guy running around the stadiums with Tar on his heel.

I gotta say I have a soft spot for LSU.
If I were not such a rabid tide fan, LSU runs a close second. I prefer their(real) tiger to Aubie.

Same reason we're the Crimson Tide but our mascot is an elephant. Alabama and Auburn are the only two schools in the country whose war cry has nothing to do with their mascot.

Granted, they're not football powers, thank God. Can you imagine an enraged banana slug?

"Well Eli, Smokey just came out of the tunnel, and he's about 100 yards away from me now, and if I had my deer rifle I believe I could drop him, back to you Eli" -- Jerry Duncan's comments to Eli Gold just prior to kickoff against Tennessee
As Molly Hatchet once sang . . .
“Well I’ve been to Alabama people, ain’t a whole lot to see. Skynyrd says it’s a real “Sweet Homeâ€, but it ain’t nothin’ to me!â€
We won’t talk about the entire nature of the song (Gator Country), or what was said about Tennessee!

(chose the Clemson side of the rivalry when he was born in this state)
Actually, I was born and grew up in Wilmington NC as a Wolfpack fan but when it was time to pick a college I wanted a degree in international relations. Only place in NC that had good program was UNC, and that was out of the question for a Wolfpacker. Next closest place was Columbia, SC.

Yeah, it's the law of averages... But it seems that average isn't too balanced toward the west. Forget about the North/South game... let's bring on the East/West butt-whoopin'!!!
