Ranking SEC State flags

8. Missouri. Like the state of Missouri, it's too forgettable.
7. Florida. It's Alabama's flag with a seal in the middle. Florida needs a better flag.
6. Georgia. They've changed theirs too many damn times, and this is the best they can come up with?
5. Mississippi. Face it, they could have done a lot worse with this. I think the magnolia looks cool.
4. Tennessee. The tri-star flag was adopted in 1905 and is a very recognizable symbol for the Volunteer State today.
3. Alabama. Simple and to the point with a red St. Andrews cross on a white background.
2. Texas. 100% chance of triggered Texans because I didn't rank them #1. Chile's very similar flag was adopted first. Don't mistake me, though: it's a cool flag.
1. South Carolina. Their flag is not only original, but also cool as frick.
Dishonorable mentions
Louisiana. Has the potential to be cool, but this one ain't it. They should incorporate the fleur-de-lis at a minimum.
Kentucky. Could be confused with NY, PA, MI... et cetera. It looks nothing like a flag of a Southern state.
Oklahoma. If you have to remind people what your state flag is with the name of your state in large, bold font, you have a shitty arse flag.
Arkansas. Just burn this bullshite and start over.

I can’t argue with this. SC’s is one of the best in the country.

Solid rankings, IMO.

I'd move up Mississippi, that magnolia is dope.
Holy cats AR is bad, guessing that's why I've never seen it anywhere

Georgia's is badass, and is certainly better than the Denny's placemat you've ranked above it.

Not a state flag, but the best flag in Texas history.

A few years back, a picture was purported to show A&M students accidentally displaying the Chilean flag at an A&M football game. But the truth was they were intentionally displaying the Chilean flag. The student was the son of a man who had been centrally involved in rescuing trapped Chilean miners the previous week, and it was an international story.
Anyway - just a side note. Solid ranking.

You don’t think the Louisiana one is cool? When a baby pelicans aren’t getting enough food the mother will tear off part of her flesh to feed her newborns
If that’s not cool I don’t know what is

I can't see Tennessee's flag and not think...

Not trying to get political, but I'm honestly surprised that Georgia hasn't gotten pressured to change their flag by the NCAA since their flag is pretty much a copy of the stars and bars with the Georgia seal within the stars.

It’s because the original Georgia state flag was the state seal plus the rebel flag (like many southern states). Given that most people don’t know what the “stars and bars” actually are (typically confusing it with the rebel flag), the state legislature full of shite heels decided to sneak this version through and complaint over it has been relatively minimal so it remains.

NCAA, they can't do shite? Do you mean NAACP?

Fleur-de-lis is a nola thing and southern part of the state thing..... IMO.

Arkansas logo is shaped like a diamond as it is the only state that produces diamonds. You can can extract and keep these diamonds in Pike County Arkansas.
Arkansas used to be called the land of opportunity which is false and was called instead the natural state for tourism purposes.
I don't like Arkansas being called that as Arkansas isn't the only state that is unique in that case.
Arkansas should be called the diamond state.

No, I meant the NCAA. Prior to Mississippi changing its flag, the NCAA was gonna ban any post-season NCAA events (such as baseball Regionals/Super-Regionals) within the state of Mississippi.
