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

Bama is a nemesis but not a rival

I think that's perfect, rivalries based on both being really good at the same time don't really stand up. Look at Alabama/ Clemson.

Thanks! no disrespect to your question (legit ask), but as a legacy double dawg--gotta factor in history/tradition as well, and we've got PLENTY of that. Go dawgs!
