People in the Southeast care the most about college football. NFL is an afterthought for many people here, and there are much less private schools down here than there are up north. This leads to a large majority of people going to the big public schools which makes for great rivalries.

Also, the South being more spread out College Football gives us a chance to connect with friends who are at other schools.

True. And no other conference understands why we chant "SEC." Other than "ACC," it really is the only conference chant that flows well.

But as much as we hate other during the season, we're family. We can pick on each other, but no one from the outside better pick on one of our brethren. It's unique how fans of our schools generally stand up for one another.
