Discussion Can new rivalries be made
Georgia and Alabama have had some crazy games over the past 20 years or so. We've had some of the craziest games. They had our fucking number but we're finally turning the tide on them(no pun intended lol) We won our first national championship in 40 years against a team that shut our shit down time and time again.
Yet people keep telling me this is not a true rivalry. But it's the team and game I look forward to the most now fuck florida. So I want other people's opinion, is this not the biggest rivalry in the SEC at this point or what

No, it is not the biggest rivalry in the SEC. Doesn’t even crack the top 10.
The closest comparison I can think of is Tennessee-Florida. We weren’t rivals, then started playing annually in the 90s and usually the game decided the SEC East. There was something on the line. Sure, Georgia and Bama played for a natty in 22 and Alabama made the 4 team CFP over Georgia in 23 by winning the SEC CG, but now, you’re just playing for seeding in a playoff and nothing more.
