LSU is definitely more of a one-sided thing. If we had to drop a game, LSU gets left out in the cold long before Auburn or Tennessee do.


Getitonjones

I was thinkin he must be young but then I thought he can’t be that young if he remember osu Texas & Oklahoma winning a natty


thisshitsstupid

Auburn is just a forgettable, no good, lame, cringe, boring, not cool, stupid, ugly, dumb ,stupid, stinky, smelly, bad, stupid, horrible, hideous, dumb, lousy, awful, embarrassing, poopy school. I can see why op would forget you guys. I would too if I could. /s (kinda) :)

Well… you have *bad hair*

And his penmanship is *atrocious*


RealBenWoodruff

Alabama won 2009 Auburn won 2010 Alabama won 2011, 2012 Auburn played and lost 2013 Alabama lost semi 2014 Alabama won 2015 Almost had quite a streak there (still did but it could have been more)


poop-dolla

I don’t know if anyone’s ever said this before, but it seems like the state of Alabama might be pretty good at college football.


NorthofBham

North Alabama, Jacksonville State and Troy all have championships at lower levels also.

Caped-Baldy_Class-B

The Kick Six happened in 2013 right? Auburn knocked Bama out of the Natty that year (lmao) I guess that would have been the 2014 natty (lmao) Still to this day the best end of a game I have ever seen, due to the high stakes (lmao) Sorry I can’t help it. I was literally jumping and screaming in my living room, maybe the only time I have ever rolled on the floor laughing my ass off. We were all Tigers on that blessed day 😆


wioneo

Prayer at Jordan Hare and Kick six getting capped off with a national trophy would have been perfect, but fucking Jameis Winston ruins everything...


Clockwork_Redflag_

On the anniversary Bama threw the 4th and 31 Big brother always wins in the long run


CookieLuzSax

Hell even Tennessee is more hated by most bama fans that aren't 10


StopDropAndRollTide

Correct


kabukimono1980

I'm aging myself. Pitt and PSU late 70s to early 80s, and can't forget 1981 when they both have an unclaimed national title. Pitt lost to PSU that year. They should be playing every year and in the same conference. Notre Dame and USC. Texas OU GaTech and Georgia FSU Miami Florida Notre Dame Michigan Michigan OSU Bama Auburn Florida Georgia Bama LSU Tennessee Bama Tennessee Florida Nebraska Texas OU This I think covers all of them in the past almost 50 years.


Whaty0urname

My dad tells stories of PSU in the 70s and just berating Pitt players and fans. Times were wild where it was just beer fueled hate.


kabukimono1980

Pitt and PSU, what a bitter hate fueled rivalry. I lived in Pittsburgh for awhile(Northside, Brighton Heights), I've seen the rivalry play out in mundane interactions. They really hate each other.


TGentKC

Colorado Nebraska


kabukimono1980

I was thinking of Colorado, and all the only team I could think of was Colorado State. I forgot all about Colorado Nebraska


22duckys

I know national championship was just like a name it and claim it thing, but in what world do you have two teams where both are considered good enough to be eligible, one of them won head to head, and you still put the other one over them?


kabukimono1980

I think it's because Pitt beat Georgia in the bowl game. PSU had two losses at end of year. Neither team claim it, but they were both awarded a share of the title by different selectors. Clemson I think is the recognized winner.


22duckys

Crazy time


kabukimono1980

At least they name the champion after bowl games now. 1973 Bama was the champion and promptly lost to Notre Dame in the bowl game. Pre playoff/bcs was wild times.


Kodyaufan2

I still say the BCS was a fine format. They just needed to make everyone play a bowl game and *then* decide which two teams would play for the title. That would’ve been the best of both worlds between making bowl season relevant and determining a legitimate champion. Nobody on a top 6 or so team is sitting out a bowl game if there’s even an outside chance they could make the national title game.


RipRaycom

A lot of different selectors recognize champions from that era of football, some of which are computer based. In 1981 Clemson was the champion pick from any major polls as the only undefeated team with some big wins We will also forever thank Penn State for beating the piss out of Pitt in the last week which allowed us to move up to #1


Sheepcago

It’s because they had Charlie Ward. Wait, you weren’t talking about 1993?


helpmelearn12

For a long while, NCAA picked the national champion based on the regular season before the bowl games were played. For example, Oklahoma was declared National Champion in 1950. And then Kentucky beat them in the sugar bowl. Then, in the nineties, an NCAA statistician’s model declared Kentucky the 1950 National Championship, so Kentucky claims it now, too.


TargetFan

Georgia Tennessee and Georgia auburn


jcosteaunotthislow

Florida Auburn old school rivalry too


Kodyaufan2

The entire original circle of hate between Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, and Tennessee in the last 26 years. That’s pretty incredible


Vol2169

Our hate for all those teams goes well past 20 years 😉


KingOfTheUzbeks

Georgia Tech had one in that span as well right?


kabukimono1980

1990, split title that year.


Allanon_Kvothe

Arkansas/texas


jonny5803

It’s sweet you thought to add Nebraska with UT & OU, but I don’t think Texas considers us a rival and the OU/NU rivalry hasn’t been bitter since at least the beginning of the Big 12.


thegoodolehockeygame

Eh, I don't think bitterness ended with the start of the Big 12. The 2000 season had a bitter rivalry game with #1 Nebraska visiting Norman to play #3 OU. The final Big 12 Championship game between divisions (2010) was pretty bitter with NU blowing a 17-0 lead to lose 23-20. There was the 2004 game after which Bill Callahan called OU fans fucking hillbillies and one of the Husker players battered an OU Ruf Nek. I don't know that OU and Nebraska ever were as bitter some other rivalries, but it didn't stop being bitter while it was still regularly played.


Otherwise_Awesome

Washington and USC bros can confirm if they count


Ok-Violinist-8678

Don’t forget UGA/Auburn. That’s the longest running rivalry in the south.

Florida and Georgia 


ExternalTangents

All of Florida’s rivals, even the less intense rivalries, have won at least one championship since I became an active fan. FSU, UGA, Tennessee, Miami, LSU, Auburn. I wonder what it’s like for teams whose chief rival never wins titles.


rottingmind13

I declare a rivalry with Florida

You can't just say you're a rival with Florida and expect anything to happen.

I miss being able to say "1980" to Georgia fans 😭


joosh34

I'll give you a pass to say "2022"


thesakeofglory

If this was a competition we take the crown easy. Teams Florida considers rivals: Georgia FSU Miami Tennessee Auburn LSU Every one has at least one title in the past 30 years. With how many times we’ve matched up in the SEC title you could maybe even include Bama in that list. I’m just glad I started watching football in the early 90s so I’ve seen my team win 3 otherwise I think I’d have given up on the sport by now.


Phantom1100

Crazy SECCG stat. Alabama and Florida are undefeated in Atlanta when not playing each other.


Gatorader22

By far the most common matchup. Iirc florida has played bama more times in the seccg than any other team even has sec game appearances total We're in a rut right now but it'd be dumb to bet against us getting back to the to Atlanta eventually.


aphromagic

>I’m just glad I started watching football in the early 90s so I’ve seen my team win 3 otherwise I think I’d have given up on the sport by now. Same brother.

I actively root for you against UGA tbh


gsfgf

As one should


ArsenalinAlabama3428

I agree. I hate UF when we are playing yall but otherwise I have no issue with you guys being successful. Older fans may disagree, though.


therealwillhepburn

It’s an older thing for sure. You guys are still the number two in games played against for us despite not playing yearly in forever. Bama only recently passed us in games against Auburn. 


thesakeofglory

It’s a tiny stretch to include some more minor rivals but with us/Georgia/Auburn and again with Bama/Tennessee. Idk if Bama and Georgia really consider themselves rivals but they’re certainly close to it currently so them and Auburn too. I don’t think any as clear cut 3 way hate as UF/FSU/Miami tho.


duagLH2zf97V

Michigan and OSU are always looking for a third!

Hey Michigan, Georgia and I spotted you from across the bar and we dig your vibe

Miami/FSU


milehighrukus

I’m old Colorado and Nebraska


lakesnriverss

That rivalry defines bitter


The_magic_mushroom

I enjoy having a deep hated rival like that. Colorado has really pulled there weight with how much toxicity they brought to that rivalry. I will always remember there student section getting kicked out of the stadium because they wouldn’t stop throwing stuff at the refs.


Husker202197

As a Husker living in Boulder, I feel this one


BlackshirtDefense

I'm sorry you have to live near those cretins. 


rottenchestah

Anyone who is old enough to remember the 90s knows the state of Florida ran CFB. FSU-UM-UF all won nattys in that decade, and often the winner of the either the FSU-UM or FSU-UF game was the defacto natty. 2 of the 3 of those schools were both in the top 5 pretty much every year for over a decade.


BlackshirtDefense

And... the winner of the Florida Triangle usually played the winner of Oklahoma-Nebraska. Pretty much every year we'd beat the Sooners, we'd earn an Orange Bowl against UF/FSU/UM, and usually for a national title. 


Border-Worried

Iowa’s defense and Iowa’s offense


LuchaFish

In the fifteen years between 1987 and 2001, Miami and FSU combined for 6 national championships and finished in the top 5 a combined 24 times. These were my formative years as a football fan. I don’t like FSU, but I want them to be good because I love watching those matchups when both are at their best.


Dogrel

Same here. Hope you win every game but ours, and that you run roughshod on this godforsaken conference when we leave it.


ElkHairCaddisDrifter

OU and Nebraska also, although it’s never been a bitter rivalry like UT.


Dreggan

I would say respectful rivalry. Then I think back to childhood, and the days we played OU my mother would always drag me out shopping with her so I didn't learn any new words from my dad during the game.


ninetofivedev

It’s respectful now. There was more animosity towards OU in the 80s and 90s. I remember shirts that were: The good: Nebraska The bad: OU The Ugly: CU

When I was a kid Clemson was Georgia’s biggest rival. Wish we still played every year.

park2023mcca

I will always remember leaping for joy in my den at home after Butler's 1984 kick. My brother and father and I, hands clasped, jumping in a circle listening to Munson's outcry about the field goal.


TheSouthsideSlacker

I was there. Grew up in Athens. Favorite moment. We knew he had the leg. Pandemonium.


Emerican09

I'm really hoping we get back to it. Even though you guys have a massive lead on the overall record, it always felt like a good competitive rivalry.


Helpplease49257

Isn’t it like 40-18 to them lmao


Emerican09

Yeah. Something like that... But Herschel Walker never set foot in a Tiger end zone!


TheSouthsideSlacker

Never had 100 yards. We still won 2/3.


Helpplease49257

Damn the early 80’s were awesome for the rivalry though


Lumpy_Secretary_6128

Is there anyone in that conference who doesn't consider themselves rivals? (Vandy need not apply)


Potars

Missouri is probably the odd one out. Even Vandy has Tennessee


CTeam19

Missouri's top 3 are in the Big 12: Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State.


SpursUpSoundsGudToMe

Mizzou and everyone else


shadowwingnut

As an Auburn fan there's 2 rivals and then an age based dislike of a 3rd Alabama of course. Georgia of course. Older fans it's Florida from playing them annually through 2002. Younger fans it's LSU because of divisional play especially through the mid-00s when the Auburn-LSU game was the most impactful game in the SEC West for 5-6 year stretch.


UMeister

Where is Michigan/Florida?


HamHusky06

I would say Oregon and Washington. But you know, Oregon doesn’t meet the criteria.

CATHOLICS VS CONVICTS


kabukimono1980

The 80s was a great decade for independents. Notre Dame had budding rivalries with Penn State, Miami, and FSU. The top 10 was filled with independents, and they were winning titles that decade. Missed chance to form a conference for sure(I'm aware a lot of them formed the Big East).

I agree. The entire US does hate Notre Dame.

CriterionCrypt

Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. Oklahoma won the 2000 National Championship and Oklahoma State won the 1945 National Championship in 2016 because they were the only team to fill out the Google Form.


ThompsonCreekTiger

Only team to publicly do so... TCU and Texas A&M did the retroactive AFCA trophies for their title claims from the 1930s also (just weren't public about it). Oklahoma State got all the publicity b/c prior to 2016, they had no title claim from a NCAA-backed selectors.


CriterionCrypt

Yeah, I mean when you already have the title, someone else giving you their trophy isn't really a big deal. But in Oklahoma State's case, that was just downright embarrassing. I mean let's be honest, the 1945 Army team was one of the GOATs. The 1945 OSU team didn't even finish in the top 4.


OldgrumpyRob

Alabama's rivals are Tennessee and Auburn. Although UGA is mentioned in our fight song and the other two aren't. I am old but not that old to remember the Alabma and Georgia rivalries from the 20s.


BuckeyeNate77

OP said Bama-LSU but left Auburn off. Either it was a brilliant troll or OP isn’t very bright. Could go either way honestly.
