I was thinking about transfering down to an SEC school through SMS for a semester or two (either Ole Miss or Alabama, I'd probably go with Alabama), but if I can't even enjoy football there, I would be very irritated. I'd have to say seeing the Iron Bowl would be an awesome experience which I would really want to do if I was down there.

I grew up going to Alabama football games. My best friends went there as well and i even went to a few games while I attended Ole miss. I probably can tell you any player, coach and stat about Alabama football during the 80's and 90's...and I ended up going to Ole Miss. Alabama has a huge tradition with football, however...
Their ain't NOTHING like The Grove. I'm not even going to try to explain it..there's no way i can..you just have to be there. Sports Illustrated named us #1 in Tailgating.
This past year when we played South Carolina we met a group of guy from NYC who get together every year and go to a college football game, They'd been EVERYWHERE!!! I mean everywhere! ANd they said someone told them to go to Ole Miss. We invited them to tailgate with us and all...after like 10 minutes in the town they said they'd officially seen it all...from then on they weren't just going to go to a college game every year...they were coming to The Grove every year. Not only that...2-3 weeks later when we played LSU...they showed up again! Decked out in Ole Miss gear...they said they couldn't wait a year. LOL!
