Offseason thread: what non-SEC football program most resembles each SEC program?

Alabama: Notre Dame. Tons of history, lots of claimed championships. Most of the fan base did not attend the University. Generally unbearable.
Arkansas: Wisconsin. Solid program with a lot of history, can't seem to quite get over the hump. Great facilities, they'll remind you of this fact. Always playing second or third fiddle in conference. Bert.
Auburn: Michigan State. Has more than its fair share of success but overshadowed by its in-state big brother.
Florida: Oregon. Both programs started in the 90s. Tremendous success under a recently departed coach. Fans are slightly bitter about this fact.
Georgia: Texas. Lots of money, lots of tradition, tons of in-state talent. Best college towns in their respective conferences. Consistently underachieving.
Kentucky: Kansas. When does basketball season start?
LSU: Michigan. Play in two of the best venues in college football. Fans are ready to walk off a ledge at a moment's notice. Paranoid of the decline. It's real.
Mississippi State: Kansas State. Small ag schools located in the middle of nowhere. Frequently left out of the conversation but still find a way to occasionally compete despite the lack of resources.
Missouri: Minnesota. Only major program in a fairly large state. Lack of success given that fact. Mostly ignored by the national media. Both have coaches that have brought them back from the dead. Both full of hoodie-wearing Yankees.
Ole Miss: Maryland. Interesting programs. Unjustifiably pretentious fans. Middle of the road teams.
South Carolina: Clemson. But shittier. Because they are more alike their in-state rivals than they could possibly imagine.
Tennessee: USC. Traditional powerhouses. Can't seem to get it together lately. Both got screwed by Lane Kiffin. Both like to throw decade old statistics at you.
Texas A&M: Virginia Tech. But much weirder. Both have little brother syndrome; could probably attend counseling together.
Vanderbilt: Northwestern. Token, top-notch private schools in powerful conferences full of public schools. Both located in great cities that wouldn't know the difference if the respective football programs folded tomorrow.

This was actually pretty creative.

This would be better if you compared SEC teams to NFL team.

Mizzou resembles a toilet that the West Champion takes a shite in. First week of December we get the bubble guts and unload on you peasants.

Thanks btw. I didn't compare y'all to Texas for this exact reason. They hoarded all their money from us.

You're welcome. We still have hope that you'll start generating revenue, unlike the Mississippi orphans and that school in South Carolina that never can catch up to Clemson.

Some of those aren't terrible, the UF-Oregon comparison is pretty bad.

Could easily have been the other way around.

Yes it is. I couldn't think of anything better in the twenty seconds I thought about it.

I will say that you're not giving Maryland much credit. It's a public ivy school located in one of the wealthiest states in the country. I am sure they have some justifiably arrogant and successful fans

Florida : Ohio State. When they're on top, they're really good. When they're not, they still think they're on top even when they suck. And Urban.

A better comparison for us would be FSU.

I came in prepared to talk shite about our comparison, but that's actually not bad at all.
