I don't really care where UGA fans put their theoretical rankings. I agree that in a bubble, AU should be #3. You guys are #2 for us, obviously, because we don't have a third team that remains a real rival. I guess LSU is about as close as we come? Although Arkansas would obviously love to be on that list, for some reason.
But, in practice, Auburn is probably closer to #1 or #2 for a great many UGA fans. I'm not claiming you're obsessed with us, but in Atlanta there are a ton of AU people and we're far more relevant to your every day life than UF and even Tech, a lot of the time.
TLDR: Auburn may rightfully be #3, but a lot of the time we're getting the #1 treatment from the heart of UGA's footprint (Atlanta).

And there are no ways to really tell. It's a great rivalry that is super close. Honestly? After thinking about it, I would probably put Auburn #2 on the list and drop GT.

I would have thought LSU? Do you guys not really get fired up about them?

Yep. It's all individual opinion, and like many have said in this thread, Auburn is probably #2. It's a good rivalry.
