Georgia-Auburn rivalry: Kirby Smart and Hugh Freeze focus on respect, not hate
ATHENS — Kirby Smart considers Auburn “a helluva fierce rivalry” for Georgia, but there’s an underlying respect between the programs.

I kinda feel the same way but I do hate Florida…and Tennessee…and especially Georgia Tech! Bunch of smug nerds who want to think they’re relevant because they’ve won two games before their tenth game of the year and we all know better! Go Dawgs!
Hate is such a strong word these days. It's like it can't be nuanced to a specific meaning or a given situation. My father-in-law was a graduate of Auburn way back when. We often watched the auburn/BAma game together and if Auburn won he would enjoy it immensley but he had brothers who were staunch BAMA fans and after the game was over they would call each other and give each other some good ole fashion needling and whosever team won they got bragging rights till the next year. THere was no true hate between them. JUst good fun. The way it should be. THEy were all good men of faith. I'm sure they're all sitting around chuckling about it now.
I hate Florida. I have contempt for Tennessee. I dont care about Auburn as long as we win. I expect to win against USCeast.
GA Tech - that's just a fun one for me. I have been a fan of UGA since I was a kid but my dad was a Tech graduate. I went to Tech my freshmen year (I was a trainer for their football team) and then transferred to UGA where I graduated. So Tech has always been a fun rivalry for me.
