... and why.
I'm sure we've done this before but what else you got to do?
Dan brought it up at SEC Media Days.
I'm more interested in why. Seems it lot of has to do with where you live.

I've lived in Florida for 90% of my life so it's Florida's Second-rate University. Like the state of Alabama you're either a Gator or a Semenhole and people take sides even if they don't watch football. We have to beat them every year for recruiting, for bragging rights and generally for a shot at the NC. Plus they're just slimy human beings.

In 2nd, in terms of hating a team it's a tie between UGAy and Da U. My hate for Miami goes back to Schnellenberger and the meaningless FG (my first game at Florida Field). Oh, and fvk UGAy.

Tinerce? Barely think about them except game week. Not much of a rivalry really.

Rising with a bullet; the Corndogs.

The votes will be overwhelmingly in favor of UGA. Naturally. We're in the same division.

Beating FSU gives me more satisfaction.

I hate the scumbags in fSUcks, i think beating them does more for recruiting and keeps us top dog in the state.

Ugly needs their asses whooped because it is a division game, and as much as i hate them, losing to an SEC team is a little easier to swallow compared to All Cupcake Conf ( days past, Clemson is legit) Also we owned their asses most of the time in modern history.

Da U was a great rivalry, some of those teams were loaded with talent, similar to bama these days, not having played them much recently and them being in shambles makes it hard to rate them a real rival at the moment.

Tinercee.. :rotfl:

Where do you live? That's the key.
Pinellas. The Noles far outnumber Dwags. That said, I suffered through the Gene Washington end-around pass, Fourth and Dumb, Run Lindsay Run. I have ample reason to hate Georgia, and I do. I just hate FSU a little bit more.

Technically the rival is the puppies because of the division. But I'm thinking rival more in terms of hate.

There's probably just as much reason, if not more, to hate LSU. We play 'em every year, they're always good and their fans are as obnoxious as it gets.

There is no logic, no recruiting advantage, no geography, no nothing that can trump the absolute hatred I have for Georgia. You want logic. You want a rational reason. It's none of that. It's years of putting up with disappointment, vince dooley poor mouthing, and the rest of that crowd. If you want a better reason, ask someone else.

And all this in spite of the fact that I have an arrogant ******* FSU in-law with a holier than thou smirk I'd like to wipe out with a swift punch in the face.

Whew...I think I got a little carried away.

Florida football’s greatest rival? The ADs office. The rivalry has declined some since footballs archenemies, Foley, retired but the ADs office continues to be the primary obstacle to winning national championships.

This is the correct answer.

Foley has done more to keep us from championships than either of those other teams.

Serious question. Which of the two would you have pegged in '96?
