[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm going to assume you did not grow up anywhere in or near the south, OP.  We take SEC football very, very seriously. People dress up for Ole Miss games. We use our crystal and china when we tailgate in The Grove. Many people even hang a chandelier in their tent.  We love our Rebs with a passion. We know their names. We often know their families. The Manning name is spoken with reverence in Oxford.

I can't speak for all teams but I know State fans are every bit as obnoxious, I mean passionate. My DH went to Georgia and he bleeds Red and Black. Our Saturdays revolve around football. It's more than sports. It's a part of our culture. I grew up watching SEC football. I knew all the words to "Hotty Toddy" by two years old. It was the only time I was allowed to swear.  We have football food, tailgate, travel, visit family, meet up with old friends, etc. during football season. It is so much more than just a game. [/quote]

Old Miss is still in the SEC?  I thought they got relegated to the WAC.  [/quote]
