Exactly. But Spurrier has recently brought out emotion that I've never seen against UT.

quote:

Just because a series is competitive does not make it a rivalry. UGA/GT is a huge rivalry and the series has not been very competitive lately.


Huge rivalry with Tech? Georgia was selling tickets to the public the week of the game. And before you mention Thanksgiving, there weren't any tickets being sold to UA/AU that week. Tech tickets have always been easier for me to get. SC, AU, UF? Not so much.

quote:

If we decided to play Ga. Southern or Ga. State every year, that would not necessarily make us rivals.


It's the emotion of the game. Spurrier's presence has made it a rivalry because of his public disdain for Georgia. Will it be the same after he retires? Probably not. But right now it's intense, & it's not exclusively because of the game's importance.

Give it up. SC isn't a rival. Move along now

So? YOU are the one that said that we were a rival because of the frequency of the games. I was pointing out that that doesn't necessarily make it a rivalry. You keep moving the goalposts. YOU made several points and I refuted them. now you want to excuse your points by making different conflicting points? Find out what makes a rivalry, then we can talk. As South Carolina sinks down into irrelevance again you will shake your head at even suggesting that South Carolina and Georgia are rivals.
