As a UGA fan, I like Arkansas. Good people. Lots of family are razorbacks. They are classy friendly folks out there. And the razorback is just a wild and wacky mascot. And the pig squeal stuff is wonderful. How can you hate Arkansas?


Last offseason topic of the year from me, I swear.

Kentucky due to the family connection but other than them, South Carolina. Especially since they finally ditched that blow hard.

LSU. Had a blast there in 2012 when SC played. Plus in 2015 when LSU hosted SC at the last minute because of horrible flooding in our state. Good folks over there.

Texas A&M and Auburn fans were good people as well on our trips there.

Kentucky. I would like to see them have success like South Carolina did with Spurrier. I have always been impressed with how the fans at Kentucky and USCe support their program through the lean times and good times.

LSU. Despite all the ribbing I give'em, I like the LSU program best. In fact, I would hedge that most UGA fans would pick LSU as their cross division fave.

I like their fight song, marching band, their spirit...I just don't care for their colors. But, I digress. UGA and LSU are similar programs tradition-wise in terms of wins, titles, etc. We just need to catch up and win a natty that's more recent than theirs. :)

Second...Ole Miss & Arkansas. Two former national powerhouses from days gone by that, I think, would be neat to see them return to their glory days.

Most admired: Oklahoma & Texas A&M. OU's only had 14 losing seasons in the HISTORY of their program, the fewest amount of any program ranked in the Top 20 winningest Divison 1 programs of all time. Like UGA, OU is consistently good or very good. It's just that OU's won more natty's than us and more recently, too. :( Their fans are, understandably proud of their program, but not in as obnoxious, arrogant way as Alabama and Texas (who has much less to be bragging about in the first place). I do like the Sooners program.

A&M's traditions are fantastic. I love them.

Least liked: Texas Moo Moo's. Enough said.

Aggies. Forever grateful for the assist on getting Mizzou out of the previous conference and into the SEC. $$

Well, OU plays in a conference with much weaker teams. Alabama plays in a conference with 5 of the top 13 teams in all-time wins, OU only Texas and Nebraska (when NU was there.)

I used to like Auburn until Cam Newton happened. So now I guess it's Arkansas. Wish we still could play them every year. We came into the league together I think they should be our permanent opponent.

Then again with OU and UTa joining that is all about to change again anyway perhaps.

Generally speaking, it’s South Carolina. Next would be Kentucky because I’ve got extended family that attended university and lived in the area. I also still have a certain affinity for Mizzou because of our B12 membership and growing up watching us play them.

I honestly don’t dislike any team from the East. I’m either neutral or positive on them. I wish we played Georgia and Florida more frequently.

Only exception for me is maybe Tennessee. Orange is a disgusting color to me, no matter how burnt or how bright.

Well, I was sticking with cross division teams. In the East, other than UGA, Alabama is my most admired. Alabama's not in the East, but who cares. Despite lapses in egregious cheating over the years, Alabama seems to win despite whomever is their coach. There is something in the water there in Tuscaloosa. Bottom line: Alabama just wins. And keeps winning. It makes us hate'cha, but I have to tip my hat off to your program. Just quit claiming national titles that y'all really have no business claiming. Do that and I'll be happy. :)

Other than UGA in the East that I admire most: South Carolina. They've done a lot to pull their bootstraps up since they joined the SEC in 1992. What Spurrier did at Carolina was remarkable. One phrase that describes the South Carolina program best imo: THEY DON'T EVER GIVE UP.

Well, thank ya. I guess it's the former journalist inside me, which I try to get away from, but sometimes I just can't help it.

OK, 41 off the books, then we will claim 66 (only unbeaten and untied college football team) as it was stolen for Bama.
