Alabama and Tennessee are historical rivals. That game is not very competitive anymore. Tennessee hasn’t done their job and has sucked for a while

Exactly. We play every year and, up until the last decade and some change, the games have mostly been close and hard fought. But that shouldn't matter. Most media pundits will tell you that Ohio State-Michigan is the greatest rivalry in the history of college football, yet the Wolverines have only beaten the Buckeyes twice since they hired Jim Tressel back in 2001.

That's true... but as they say, that's not our fault. We have played Tennessee when they were up, and when they were down, when we were up, and when we were down. The series is notable for the very streakiness.
We're currently on a record long winning streak for the series, but I personally respect that Pruitt is building things the right way for them by stepping up recruiting (they are currently ranked third for this years recruiting and committed prospects).
Georgia is a rival for Bama. Just not a major rival that we play every year.
