Ranking the most obnoxious SEC fans

From the Atlanta Journal Constitution, columnist Mark Bradley gets ready to kick off the 2008 college football season by throwing his hat into the ring and ranking the most obnoxious football fans in the SEC.
12. Mississippi State: The only time State fans get really upset is when you make fun of their rustic town. I know this from experience. But you know what? If I'd have been a Starkvillian and read what I wrote back in 2005, I'd have gotten ticked, too.
...
5. Arkansas: It was over the top for Hog fans to file Freedom of Information requests to gain access to Houston Nutt’s cell phone records, but it was over the top in an amusing way. One word of warning: Don't try that stuff with Bobby Petrino. He'll just up and leave.
...
1. Florida: Gator fans didn’t become obnoxious when Steve Spurrier started beating everybody. They were obnoxious when their team couldn't win the SEC to save its life. And for all Floridians still irked by Georgia's celebration, here are two words to Google: Gator Flop.
