4th greatest in SEC history


It was a great game, one I would like to see regularly again (I would actually like Alabama and Auburn to both move East- adding two teams from the west). But 4th best? I disagree- if we're going historical, I think these have to be ranked above Auburn-Florida

1. Alabama-Auburn
2. Auburn-Georgia
2. Alabama-Tennessee
4. Florida-Georgia
5. LSU-Ole Miss
6. Ole Miss-Mississippi State


(I actually think Auburn-Florida State should be a big rivalry, if they ever happen to join the SEC, which is unlikely. IIRC, they're the third-closest BCS school to Auburn, behind Alabama and Georgia)

I put AU/UF over 4-6, but that is certainly debateable and is just my opinion.

I loved the AU/FSU rivalry in the 80's. Still have my ticket stub from the 1990 AU/FSU game. Top 5 all time favorite AU game for me.
