Supporting Conference Members?

[Cat80]

I was in North Carolina recently on business and heard the following regarding a supporter of a SEC school about cheering for Alabama in the NC game:

'Cheering for Alabama to win the NC because they are in the SEC is like cheering for the Devil because he's in the Bible.'

I wonder how much time Alabama fans spend trying to stir the pot on fan forums for other SEC schools.

Auburn fans would probably support any SEC team other than Alabama.

There is a lot of antagonism of SEC teams for each other. However, there is SEC pride. After a national championship for gymnastics won by Georgia, there was a strong 'SEC" chant in unison by fans of Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, and Florida. Really disgusting.

Went to the SEC championship two years ago. After Alabama beat Missouri, they had a few mocking chants in which they insert "Missouri" or "Tigers" into the "blanks" of the chant. It was quite tacky.

They also have derision of other SEC teams tucked into the pauses of Sweet Home Alabama.

Texas has a few slams on Oklahoma that get inserted into songs/chants. I heard them during a Texas/Baylor game.
