Worst
1. Mississippi State

Haven't had any problems anywhere else.

Have seen us play all 13 SEC teams plus a ton of other schools. Ranking the best fanbases would be nearly impossible.

Been fortunate enough to not really have any bad experiences yet, but I've met some douches along the way.

Best
1. LSU
2. Georgia
3. Ohio State

Honorable mentions: Auburn (always have fun tailgating there), Mississippi State, Texas A&M.

Worst
1. Notre Dame- if anyone was there for the title game, you understand.
2. Ole Miss
3. West Virginia

Worst:

1. Georgia
2. Ole Miss
3. Ohio State - this wasn't even a Bama game. They are just awful.

Best:

1. Arkansas
2. LSU - a bit brash, but it's mostly in fun.
3. Florida - always heard horror stories, but 3 SEC Championship Games and 2 games in Gainesville and I've never had a bad encounter with any Florida fans.

Only had one bad experience and that was in Athens...but only inside the stadium, the town was great. It was the game where they knocked out all the QBs (Avalos game).

I've been to a ton of games and the only two fanbases that I had issues with were Ole Miss and Oklahoma.

Ole Miss fans are the worst. They're the most uppity group of people I've ever come across, which is hilarious. Auburn fans are self righteous with the whole "family" thing and the belief that auburn people just love auburn more than anyone else loves their school, but ole miss people actually think they're better than their neighbor because they root for the "classy" school in the state that exemplifies grand old antebellum era traditions. These people live in a different world.

Worst:
1. Oklahoma State - Worst experience at a football game. Wasn't even a Bama game and I had absolutely no rooting interest. Stillwater is fairly close to me and I wanted to see a game down there. Whole experience sucked. They're just a bunch of bitches.
2. Florida - I think everyone here understands.
3. Texas Tech - Any game where it is normal to get hit with multiple tortillas automatically puts you on this list.

Best: I have had a blast at all of these games through the years.
1. Oklahoma
2. Auburn
3. Tennessee

Worst:
1. Georgia. Grown men barking automatically earn the spot for worst.

2. Auburn. This was during the Shula era but obnoxiousness to the extreme.

3. Tennessee. There are a lot of folks that don't understand exactly how much those guys hate us.

Best:
1. Kentucky. Good folks

2. Arkansas.

3. South Carolina

Soon I suspect Florida State will be at or near the top of many lists like this. Always heard their fans are terrible.

Worst:
1. 2004 at Tennessee
2. 2015 versus Michigan State in Arlington
3. 2007 versus LSU

Best
1. 2002 at Oklahoma
2. 2012 at Arkansas
3. 2006 at LSU

LSU manages to make in on both lists. Shows how much the matchup changed, after Saban was hired in 2007.

I've only ever had bad experiences with Tennessee fans and the little brother type Auburn fans.

I'll play from an OSU perspective

Best:

Oklahoma St., Oregon and Texas

Worst:

Florida, PSU and Michigan

Florida was probably deserved, based on what I heard OSU fans saying before the game. PSU fans are notoriously known for throwing piss bags at opposing fans, and Michigan fans are insufferable.

Michigan/OSU is such a different type of rivalry than others. It is billed as a Haves vs the Have-nots, rich and snobby vs the working class. It isn't even really like that, but both sides still play it up to the extreme.

I'll never forget going to the 2007 game in Ann Arbor and the shock on a kid's face when i told her that yes, I did in fact have a job in NYC

Georgia fans absolutely were the worst when I went to Athens in 2003. The game sucked, too. Brandon Avalos - in after Croyle and Pennington had been knocked out -- tripping on blades of grass as he ran for his life didn't help. I haven't been back since and I didn't go to the SEC title game against them so I can't say whether it was an isolated bad day or not.

Worst (from least worst to downright dirty worst) - Florida, Ole Miss and LSU

Best (from 3rd best to 1st)- Vandy, Arkansas, A&M.

Worst -
1) Auburn - but only the first year Bama played there
2) Florida - took a 3 day old car to UF game in 99, came home with a smashed in bumper and no idea how it happened
3) UT - I'll never forgive my sister for marrying a Vol

Best -
1) Auburn - all the other years I've been there its been quite nice. I went to AU for 3 years so have several friends who go to all the games
2) Ole Miss - one year there was a big rain storm a couple of hours before the game started. Was walking around looking for tickets. Had a limo pull up and hand 2 tickets out the window and drive off. Was on the 40 yard line half way up. Still have no idea who it was
3) Ark - was the same day LSU threw for 50 pick 6s against AU (I think), both sets of fans were just shocked by watching the scores of that game
