| For some reason, I think the rivalry comes alive more in the big house rather than the horseshoe |

| I personally like the Army Navy game, because at the end of the day, they're all fighting for the same cause, regardless of the score. |

umm.. it's been a big game longer than when that game happened?
the winner of the game has gone to the championship in the past 6 years
it's the biggest rivalry in the biggest/best conference in the NCAA, and considering the success both of these times have had, and how close these two teams are to each other, it's not hyped JUST because of that play, even though it was an amazing play

That's incorrect Perry - I did not see Alabama in the title game in 2015. And I thought this whole "SEC is the best" stuff was done for then anyway because their bowl record was garbage. Most Alabama fans probably don't even know what football is lmao.
Not to mention, even IF that was the case, it's not like Auburn and Alabama have been 1-2 or on the bubble of 4-5 every year and it determines who makes it in the playoff. In that case, we should have Kent State and Ohio State as a huge rivalry because the winner of that game did go to the championship. |

| Auburn has beef with too many teams to have the biggest rivalry in sports. Having two "rivals" somewhat takes away from the spotlight that it gets. |

whats your biggest rivalry, then?
regardless of any of the other rivalries Auburn has, Auburn/Bama is by far more meaningful and heated, mainly because it's an in-state rivalry, and at least in recent years, the games are high stakes

8 of the last 10 Championship winners have been from the SEC, so if that doesn't make them the best conference, I don't understand what makes any conference better. they get more drafted players than any team, and they're consistently some of the highest recruiting schools in the nation
"In 2015, the SEC had 54 players drafted, the ninth consecutive year the conference has led the NFL in most-selected players in the draft."
"In the NCAA, recruiting is the lifeblood of building a prestigious program. In the past four years, the SEC has averaged nine institutions in the top 25 of national recruiting classes. In comparison, no other conference in the NCAA has averaged more than five.
In 2015, the University of Alabama had the top recruiting class in the nation."
not to mention the head coaches in SEC history
"Some of the best college coaches of all time have paced the sidelines in the deep south. Paul "Bear" Bryant, Nick Saban, Les Miles, Robert Nyland and Steve Spurrier are just a few of the legendary coaches to grace the SEC."
and as for your bowl game statement,
"Despite all that, the SEC just set an NCAA record with nine bowl wins in 11 post-season games. Alabama (2), Georgia, Tennessee, LSU, Auburn, Mississippi State, Ole Miss and Arkansas all won their bowl games by a combined score of 383-171. Florida’s blowout loss to Michigan and Texas A&M’s 27-21 loss to Louisville are the only blemishes on the SEC’s record in bowl play."
so yeah, I guess their bowl game record is pretty bad..

Patriots, Celtics, Florida State
Patriots and Celtics (and Red Sox) cause my mom and her side of the family is from New England, and FSU because my dad is an FSU fan and I live 45 minutes away from Tallahassee

| No I was just wondering why you had Broncos, Warriors, and Cavs stuff on your first page of shirts and then started talking about how good the SEC was. |
