I only wish I did. The extended family of in-laws are a bunch of whiny beta B1G fans with manginas. They aren't even skilled at proper trash talking. I converted the wife into a rabid LSU fan before I'd marry her. She now prays for The Hat and his boys. Lol

My brother could not get into Auburn or Georgia. His default schools were Alabama or Miss. It took him 5 years to graduate from Alabama

Cousin is an Ole Miss fan, and is getting married the day of the Alabama game.





Pretty much tells you all you need to know about Ole Miss fans.

OM
State
Alabama

My dislike doesn't change with those teams except for Auburn. I like Auburn.

A few of my relatives went to Mississippi State (great-grandfather, great uncle, cousin).

Great aunt went to LSU and graduated at the top of her class before WWII.

Several cousins have graduated from Ole Miss.

I have three cousins who grew up in Birmingham -- two went to Bama and the third went to Auburn.

Uncle graduated from Florida. His wife graduated from Tennessee.

Obviously lots of Arkansas grads (myself included).

Cousin went to AU. I think she's a substitute teacher somewhere, maybe Childersburg? We don't talk. Getting those stupid Christmas cards with Santa dressed in orange and blue in the years AU won the IB rankled me.

Santa looks better in his usual crimson and white.

Most of my mom's side of the family went to A&M. She actually used to the sing the Aggie War Hymn to my sister and I as kids lol. Uncle was also in the corps and my grandmother had an almost psychotic hatred of LSU and the Longhorns.

I have several connections to Auburn and Missouri. The Missouri family members are great, but those who went to Auburn are over-confident and a little slow. They're good people, but it's amazing that they have college degrees.

Mom graduated from Alabama, my sister graduated from Auburn and I graduated from LSU. Dad's the only wildcard who went to a non SEC school.

Sister & my family went to UGA. Brother-in-law's family went to UF.....except my Bro-In-Law & his younger brother both went to UGA. Think B-I-L went due to my sister & younger bro went because of older bro.

From South Carolina and my brother is a Gamecock alum. We're pretty good-natured about the "family rivalry". I will root for Carolina except when they play Mizzou.

As far as SEC alums, we have Alabama, UT, UF, aTm. The UT grad is a UA fan.

I also have cousins who are fans of Auburn and Georgia, but they didn't attend those schools.

I found out last year that the daughter of one of my best friends from high school in Texas was a freshman at Bama. Totally irrational, but it kinda got me riled, too. I was bitching about Saban within about 10 seconds.

A&M and State for my family.

I guess you could count Bama for my cousins went to ULL.

I actually don't mind A&M or State much to begin with, so I generally view them positively anyway.

My parents both graduated from LSU. My dad went on to get his PhD from UGA and was inducted into Phi Alpha Theta with Vince Dooley. I also have a couple of cousins who are LSU alums. I grew up watching both LSU and UGA games because of those connections. I briefly considered applying to UGA when I was in high school, but the out of state tuition was nuts.

My brother obtained his second master's from A&M (engineering). He's not really into watching sports so there's never any trash talk. He got his first two degrees elsewhere anyway.

I don't really hate these other teams. I just want Arkansas to win.
