I'm not a fan of any team that isn't Bama.

That said, I prefer SEC teams to win non-conf. games.
I enjoy certain games when they matter most for both teams.

Vols
LSU
AU (1971 greatest iron bowl ever)

I'm an SEC chanter for bowl games only. Other than that there are no second favorites 4 me in SEC. Your either a GATOR or gator bait!

LSU, but that started as more of a location thing.

Outside the SEC, North Texas. My Grandfather is in the HOF for T&F there.

Is this a compliment?

I like LSU. Joined this board in 2003. LSU people are just interesting. I like the unique culture and like the traditions of the team.

Also like both Mississippi schools.

I don't truly dislike any SEC teams, although root against UGA, UT and UF simply because it helps my team for them to lose.

I became sort of a bandwagon USCe fan back in the 90's while living in Seneca, SC. But in all honesty, it only started because everyone in that town was a Clemson fan and I'm one of those guys that just loves to be different.

The Gamecocks really grew on me, though. I still keep up with them in the off-season and I rarely miss a televised game.

Damn, Man. Talk about a glutton for punishment. Those were some lean years, especially compared to Clemson.

Glad to have you on board!

Everyone else in my family is a UT fan. My brother wears Vol logo-wear every day.
I live in Nashville, I pull for the local guys (Vandy) in most cases.

Not sure I'd really call any other SEC team a "favorite", but when it doesn't hurt Auburn, I kind of pull several other SEC teams:

UGA: Grandmother and Uncle went there, our rivalry is pretty civilized.

LSU: They are so d@mn entertaining. People are fun and with Les Miles coaching the games are always exciting.

Ark: My little brother goes there now, and I used to slightly root for them b/c I lived in Arkansas for a year, but a lot of their fans have been such jerks in the last few years that I have cooled off on them a bit.

Vandy: I'm glad we have such an academically prestigious school in the conference, Nashville is cool, and they *usually* don't represent much of a threat (sucked when we lost to them a few years ago).

Ok- Here goes:

2nd Favorite SEC Team would be UGA- I can't really describe why UGA would be my 2nd favorite team in detail but here are 2 reasons: 1) My mother went to school there and 2) Athens is the Home of some of my favorite Bands and I spent some really good nights at the GA Theatre in the early 90's.

3rd SEC Favorite team would MS State- I lived in MS for about 10 year when I was young and my dad took us to State Games plus I was born in Starkville.

4th Favorite SEC team would LSU-- just a really fun and different atmosphere. They Know how to throw a freakin party!

5th Favorite SEC Team would be USCe- Just becuase through their entire history of being a shitty football program they still pack that stadium and support their team like a sumbitch!

6ht Favorite SEC team would be Ole Miss- My grandfather played football and ran track for the Rebels

7th Favorite SEC team would be Vandy- my other grandfather went to school their and lived in Nashville for many years after he retired. Plus what's Vandy ever done to piss off anyone?

8th favorite SEC team would be ARK- I like BBQ and they're the flagship.

The rest can FO and DIAF!

Always enjoyed watching LSU football games way before my college years. Then I got a scholarship to Bama. Quickly became my favorite the day that they agreed to pay for my education.

UGA, even though we're rivals, they've never really done anything to make me dislike them and I love Athens
