I would suspect Auburn counts as their 3rd, but not sure it should really be behind Florida. Only thing that makes Florida interesting is the neutral site. Plus their asses are probably still a little chapped from the Spurrier/Zook/Meyer era.




For me Auburn is climbing quickly, but it is still Florida, GT and Auburn.

Florida is still #1 because they have had such a strong run against us until recently. Auburn is such a good , close rivalry they have to be be very, very close to GT. GT has to stay 2nd mainly because they are in state, but if they don't improve they will drop for me.

Kind of what I suspected. Until that run is further in the rear-view-mirror, it'll rank high for you guys.

I think that + the pageantry of a regularly scheduled, coastal neutral site game make it unique.

I suspect the average fan's emotional hatred of the opponent is higher vs Auburn and Tech than vs Florida though.

ETA: It matters not to me where Auburn ranks on their list, I know they are firmly entrenched #2 for Auburn. We don't play our other neighboring states (FL, TN & MS) regularly except for MS and who gives a shite about those teams.
