I hate Florida like I hate the guy who stole my girl

I hate Bama like I hate the guy who punched my Mama

I hate UGA like I hate the snobby old costume-jewelry-wearing woman who thinks she's the highest class person in the room

I hate USCjr like I hate my friend's little brother who always whines and cries until we have to give him a turn on the Nintendo.

I hate Vanderbilt like i hate the pesky flies and gnats that keep landing in my face when I'm trying to take a nap under the shade tree.

Well done sir. This is awesome. I was going to share my thoughts, but after reading this, I don't feel qualified to even have an opinion.

37 and was at UT for Manning's 4 years there and our 98 NC.....I truly hate Bama and as a whole it is the longest biggest rival......but Spurrier and all the Florida trashy classless fans have given ME a deep rooted burning anger and I simply want to see them suffer in misery and shame.

To summarize the scope of delusion under which vandy fans have been laboring under for the past few seasons I would say they have the ego of Alabama fans, but with the trophy case, tradition, and national prominence of.......well.......vandy.

Alabama is the only team I hate. I have a strong dislike for Florida, but Alabama is the only team fitting of the word hate.

Bama or turn in your fan card. Either that or learn the history behind it all and re-vote.

I know the history, but no matter how bad, Florida has almost always beat us for the last 15 years or so.. At least with Bama, it's been back and forth. Also, many family members have had bad experiences with Florida fans.

So for me, (at this time) I dislike Gators the most.

Ala-damn-bama Criminal Tide without a doubt, no question, no other even comes close!

I'm 62, the young pups haven't lived long enough to understand.

No other Volunteer rivalry has a name, "The Third Saturday in October". There used to be the "Beer Barrel" with Kentucky but the name was deemed inappropriate and was ended in 1999 by the Kentucky AD CM Newton after a deadly car crash involving drunken Kentucky players.

In the early 1900's Alabama was a powerhouse with national recognition. Tennessee was not and had no recognition, and was usually owned by Bama until Neyland beat them in 1928.

That game thrust Tennessee into the national spotlight on a regular basis for the first time. That is the year the game was given a name, and it has meaning to the players and fans (who get it). Not named after an object, but the day every year the competition will be held to determine the winner. This rivalry has always been owned by one or the other team in streaks. Like it is now by Bama but that will change. It ought to be a National Holiday.

Florida, Vanderbilt, Georgia, nor South Carolina, (Auburn should have been on the list indicating the OP doesn't get it) games have no name. They are ALL merely and only tough games in the SEC with nothing approaching the history, tradition, national following and recognition, game art, plethora of books written, internet links, and etc. ad nauseum.

No little ones ... Alabama is Tennessee's measuring stick when the Crimson is good, and Tennessee is Alabama's when the VOLS Rise to the TOP. Some day maybe you'll get it if you can get your nose out of Need for Speed-Most Wanted and participate in real life.

This from a BAMA site.

Alabama vs Tennessee: A Historical Retrospective - Roll 'Bama Roll

And of course Auburn, their in-state rival is their Alabama's biggest game. Then Tennessee, then LSU.

For me, ALA-Damn-BAMA, Vanderbilt (In-state), Florida, Georgia, Auburn, Kentucky -- in that order.

Since I've been around born in 1990, GA has been the biggest rivalry for me, if anything I buy the tix to that game every year because i know that they have always been a target for a big win every year. Sadly Alabama is less of a rival since I've been watching tennessee football because our chances of beating them have not been that great in a long time. I am biased thought I live in GA, so Im very into that game

Tennessee/ Bama rivalry was around long before I was born though, so not sure what our age has to do with it.

I was raised to hate Alabama. If you picked anyone but Alabama, your parents didn't raise you right. :p

Alabama for football and Kentucky for basketball.......

Another interesting question is who is the biggest rival among UT baseball fans? My pick there is a tossup between LSU and Vanderbilt.

:eek:k:I do hate UA! and I do know about the rivalry. What I meant by me being born in 1990, its been 88% a one sided rivalry with UA which isn't much of a competitive rivalry so? I think the rivalry would be built up much more again if we could pull off a couple wins against UA in the next 5-10 yrs

Most disliked rival? FL. Back when we could play big boy football, I always looked at Bama as our biggest rival. The 3rd Saturday in Oct. used to really mean a great deal nationally. However, most disliked is FL, and that all started when Spurrier showed up.

I would have to say I personally hate Florida, but I have some Bama fans in the family. So I have some days where my hatred often changes more towards Bama.
