Ole Miss-LSU (Magnolia Bowl) has to at least be honorable mention. Tons of history and still a lot of emotion between these 2 schools.

Yet for some reason, your fanbases treat the rivalry as a matter of convenience.

Don't get mad at me.
It is your own fanbase that I have been looking at with wonder as they shite on their own rivalry.

Dawg fans pull for Miami and FSU when they matchup against Florida.
It is one of the main reasons why we like LSU so much over the past several decades

I didn't want to go too long with that list, but I agree, certainly historically, it belongs. So does Florida vs LSU.

Nothing comes close than my Great Aunt chasing the Bear out of her house with a broom.

When my cousin asked where coach went.

“ He had leave suddenly and the Son of a Bitch is not coming back.”

5. WLOCP
4. UGA- Aub
3. Bama-UT
2. Egg Bowl

1. Iron Bowl

Others that fly under the radar
Ole Miss- LSU- This fricker usually a nail biter
UF- South Carolina
UF-LSU- always a weird game
A&M-Arkie

sorry 40+ consecutive years of not playing gets you 5th behind the others


Do you know why they cancelled the Iron Bowl all those years? That will answer which is most intense of the rivalry games.

I really, really want to put Tennessee vs Florida somewhere. But when you do the math for the last 30 years, the Gators have destroyed even the Viles's better teams. Since divisions, it feels like a rivalry that never was.

Honorable mentions: TAMU vs Shorthorns

Second-oldest rivalry in the conference and most people on this board wouldn't be able to afford a ticket this fall.

But okay.

How about all time?
Bama 55wins 27 losses


Now Bama vs Tennessee
Bama 59 wins 39 losses

Bama vs Tennessee is clearly the better rivalry which is the point of this thread

Other than the Iron Bowl when it’s played in Auburn and there’s some sort of insane voodoo that always makes it a game - list is circumstantial to when both teams are actually good.

Georgia Florida game is a top 5 rivalry but isn’t lately bc Florida sucks

The phrase you're looking for is, I disagree. Technically, I can't be wrong, it's my list.


You can make a list and be wrong.

Top 5 hottest women in the world:

1. The Rock
2. Jason Alexander
3. Clint Eastwood
4. Merle Haggard
5. Chris Rock

This list is obviously wrong.

Like calling the Texas vs Oklahoma rivalry an SEC rivalry?

That won't be a problem, believe me. I'm hoping that SEC TAMU shows the Shorthorns what has changed in your rivalry.

Well I was talking about his list of women that were all men..

Whatever floats your boat my man..

Number 4, I dig state fairs: Oklahoma vs The Shorthorns


Neither team has played a game in the SEC. This is not an SEC rivalry.

It may be down the road, but it isn’t today.
