Vandy fans really are the smartest, they gave me this idea. So far, I have
Vandy = Hyman Roth, behind the scene power (shoutout to randomways)
LSU = Sonny Corleone, bat shite nuts and will fight anyone, even family
A&M = Fredo, wants to be the man but can't handle the pressure
Auburn = Michael Corleone, down but never out and willing to do whatever it takes to win
Alabama = Barzini trying to make a power play to fight off the younger Corleone he ends up paying the ultimate price
Arkansas = Luca Brasi cause Bert is fat
Kentucky = Johnny Fontane - nothing really to do with the family's main business, but really famous in a whole other line of work. (CrimsonLegend)
Open for suggestions for the remaining schools. Best will be added to OP

Bama is Vito Corleone, of course.
auburn is Frank Pantangeli. Establishes himself with his own lesser family, but in the end, can't follow through when older brother shows up.
Vandy is Tom Hagen. Needs no explanation.
Florida is Hyman Roth - major player in his own right, looks like he has taken over but falls short in the end.
Tennessee is Fredo. Older brother, longtime Corleone, but essentially powerless and ridiculous.
South Carolina is Carlo. They tried to get into the family through marriage (Spurrier), but they're no real Corleone.
LSU is Sonny. No argument here - legit Corleone, but bat shite crazy.
A&M/ Johnny Manziel is Joey Zasa (had to pull in G III for this one, but it's too perfect not to use).
Arkansas is Luca Brasi. All we really know about Luca is he's fat and now he sleeps with the fishes.
UGA is Moe Greene - sort of a player, but just unlucky.
Kentucky is Johnny Fontane - nothing really to do with the family's main business, but really famous in a whole other line of work.
That's all I've got.

The best was how you refused to capitalize Auburn, but managed to for every other school.

All of yours are pretty spot on. Not crazy about Auburn as Pantangeli but then I could totally see Pat Dye starting a war and then subsequently falling on his sword to clean up the mess he's made

UGA is Salvatore Tessio because, like Mark Richt, he's utterly emotionless and its just business.
Arkansas is Peter Clemenza because Bert is fat.

Tessio had balls and a killer instinct neither of which Mark Richt possesses

This. Georgia is like Clemenza. He's been there forever and everyone feels like he should be powerful, but he just isn't

What instinct Tessio had got him a shallow grave in the Jersey marshes.
Like UGA, he thought he had it made.
He was wrong.
Killer instinct?
