Worst
1. Mississippi State

Haven't had any problems anywhere else.

Have seen us play all 13 SEC teams plus a ton of other schools. Ranking the best fanbases would be nearly impossible.

Been fortunate enough to not really have any bad experiences yet, but I've met some douches along the way.

Best
1. LSU
2. Georgia
3. Ohio State

Honorable mentions: Auburn (always have fun tailgating there), Mississippi State, Texas A&M.

Worst
1. Notre Dame- if anyone was there for the title game, you understand.
2. Ole Miss
3. West Virginia

Ohio State

Was this during the 90's or the Sugar Bowl? I've heard nothing but good things about them from people that went to New Orleans.

Clemson fans before the 2007 season starter were some of the most arrogant I've ever been around.

Never had any problems from anyone except when I went to Auburn when I was a kid. I remember driving through the campus looking for a place to park with my parents and their fans were flipping us off. It was during the losing streak we had to them when Tubby was there and they were just arrogant I guess.

Worst:

LSU fans. Oddly enough this was not at an Alabama-LSU game; it was at a Saints game and I wore an Alabama jacket so I almost got into two fights. This is my basis for hating LSU fans.

Nebraska fans. Again, not a game against Alabama. I went to the Southern Miss-Nebraska game back in the early 2000s in Hattiesburg and they were fricking awful. Total fricking dicks.

Penn State fans back in 2010. I had seats at the 50 yard line two rows back on their sideline. Trashy as frick.

Best:

Auburn fans. I was surrounded by them for the 2010 Iron Bowl with my brother and they were as nice as can be, even after we went up 27-0.

Mississippi State fans. I've seen many, many games between our two schools and never had an issue.

LSU fans. They were great when it was a game between Alabama and LSU. Maybe I just ran in to fricking pricks at the Saints' games.

Well that's a different can of worms. Trashiest of the trash. Me and my brother in law beat the living hell out of two dudes in 96 or 97 at a Jags vs Saints game. Punk threw a full beer can and it hit my eldest daughter in the back. If social media was around back then we would be frickin famous.

Had a totally different experience, because the return trip in '11 was awesome. They went out of their way to be nice to us and everyone.

Worst:

1. UGA-Never been closer to a fight as an adult than when those assholes last beat us. Biggest bunch of sore winners you ever saw. Good thing they underachieve so much. They can't handle success.
2. Mississippi State- Go to a game in StarkVegas and you'll understand. They are the most mouthy, arrogant bunch before kickoff you've ever seen. Then when their team starts taking an arse whooping, they shut up and disappear. And frick those cowbells.
3. Any B1G school or Notre Dame- Same mantra/excuse from any and all Midwest Yankee schools: they HATE southern football because we regularly beat that arse and have beautiful women. Therefore, we cheat, our teams are professionals (we pay them), we let anyone in our schools if they can play football, we marry our cousins, etc. And they will tell you they really don't care when we beat them (sour grapes) but if they do win, they are in your face 24/7.
DisHonorable Mention: FSU- if you lived among them, you would understand. The worst thing we ever did was lose that 2007 shitshow against them in Jax. If we lose again in Atlanta in Sept, I'll have to move or slit my wrists. They NEVER shut up about beating us and that game was terrible.

Best:
1) Ga Southern. Those guys support their team no matter who they are facing and don't back down. But aren't too stupid about it either. Loved playing those guys.
2) Kentucky- Their football fans just enjoy the game and wait for basketball season. They never have any real expectations so they just enjoy the experience.
3) Auburn- This was a tough one because their fan base is very polarized and is very polarizing. Let me start by saying I HATE Auburn. And I HATE that obnoxious segment of their lil' brother syndrome fan base and all that entails. But their normal fans are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. Believe me, it was hard to get to the point that I can say that but it's true. Some of them are good people. It's the world class jackasses in their fan base that give them a bad name.

Worst:

1. Georgia
2. Ole Miss
3. Ohio State - this wasn't even a Bama game. They are just awful.

Best:

1. Arkansas
2. LSU - a bit brash, but it's mostly in fun.
3. Florida - always heard horror stories, but 3 SEC Championship Games and 2 games in Gainesville and I've never had a bad encounter with any Florida fans.

Only had one bad experience and that was in Athens...but only inside the stadium, the town was great. It was the game where they knocked out all the QBs (Avalos game).

I've been to a ton of games and the only two fanbases that I had issues with were Ole Miss and Oklahoma.

Ole Miss fans are the worst. They're the most uppity group of people I've ever come across, which is hilarious. Auburn fans are self righteous with the whole "family" thing and the belief that auburn people just love auburn more than anyone else loves their school, but ole miss people actually think they're better than their neighbor because they root for the "classy" school in the state that exemplifies grand old antebellum era traditions. These people live in a different world.

I actually agree with you both. I went up there in 2011 and everybody was very nice and wanted to make sure we were having a good time. But there was a group in 2010 that completely trashed the area on our campus that they were tailgating in.

Worst:
1. Oklahoma State - Worst experience at a football game. Wasn't even a Bama game and I had absolutely no rooting interest. Stillwater is fairly close to me and I wanted to see a game down there. Whole experience sucked. They're just a bunch of bitches.
2. Florida - I think everyone here understands.
3. Texas Tech - Any game where it is normal to get hit with multiple tortillas automatically puts you on this list.

Best: I have had a blast at all of these games through the years.
1. Oklahoma
2. Auburn
3. Tennessee

Worst:
1. Georgia. Grown men barking automatically earn the spot for worst.

2. Auburn. This was during the Shula era but obnoxiousness to the extreme.

3. Tennessee. There are a lot of folks that don't understand exactly how much those guys hate us.

Best:
1. Kentucky. Good folks

2. Arkansas.

3. South Carolina
