No. 3 – Georgia Bulldogs and Florida Gators

Let’s be honest, much like Alabama there are a lot of teams in the SEC who hate Florida.

But nothing quite like the Bulldogs.

Georgia and Florida are two border states who recruit the same players (gridiron and hoops), have shared a few coaches and players, and have one of the best yearly football games of the season. The Cocktail Party is probably second only to the Iron Bowl in terms of rivalry hype in the SEC.

And the hate doesn’t stop between the hashmarks for these two schools. On the basketball court they give each other the business, and on the baseball/softball diamond they really go at it.

Heck, these two even find a way to make gymnastics a rivalry. This one is probably the best border war in the SEC.
