The SEC: Your rooting guide

Hello, Mr New SEC fan. You’re looking for a team to root for, and here at the SEC Football Blog we’d like to be your ‘rooting guide’. For the record, all of our fanbases get loaded and cook good food before a game on a Saturday. Some fans are obnoxious, some are respectful.

Tennessee has hired former UCF head coach Josh Heupel as its new head coach. Danny White – who is now Tennessee’s AD – was formerly Heupel’s boss at UCF. He’ll be paid $4 million-a-year on a 6-year deal. He said on his press conference: “I believe in a very, very bright future for Tennessee football. I believe that there’s a minor speed bump that we’re going through, but the kids that are in our program right now and the kids that are being recruited are going to have a chance to play and chase championships.” First of all, we know that Tennessee fans would have loved a ‘bigger name hire’, but what self-respecting head coach would want to walk into
