I wouldn’t call it a rivalry. USC is just one of our division opponents


I kind of think you're right and wrong here.

It's a bit historically one-sided... so it's not exactly a rivalry.

But they're also a bit more than another divisional opponent, because we played them a ton before they joined the SEC and divisions were put into place. It's got more history that UGA has with Tennessee for example.

Clemson and SC were mainstay's of UGA's scheduling before SC joined the SEC.

people throw the word "rival" aroudn too loosely. SC is not our rival, although I agree they are in a different class than say vandy or UK. But just because they aren't in the pile of "here's a bunch of random teams we play sometimes", doesn't also make them a rival.

Tech, Florida, and AU are our rivals. 3 is more than the vast majority of teams out there already. Tennessee is not a rival. Bama is not a rival. Just because you have some memorable and very important games with someone doesn't make them a rival.
