2. FSU - too many close ones that got away!
3. UVA - they seem to be in our way a lot

i dont really consider Georgie a rival, more like a natural enemy...
 
1. Alabama (I'm from the SEC, Darwin Holt/Chick Graning era when UGA was a slam dunk for us)
2. UGA
3. VT
 
1. Georgie
2. Virginia Tech (because of thuggery)
3. Clemson (i hate orange and they are our permanent rival)
4. Virginia (odd years)
5. Miami (because of thuggery)
6. Wake ( i hate them from 1996 and 2006)
7. Boston College (we will rue the day we let those bastards enter the ACC)
 
1. Clemson
2. VT
3. UGA

I'm all for winning conference titles before beating my in state (out of conference) rival, but hey, that's just me

God I hate Clemson
 
Of the teams GT faces annually:
1) UGA
2) Clemson
3) Virginia

The FSU game was on it's way to making the list --although GT had yet to defeat them since the Seminoles joined the ACC in '92. But now that the two don't face each other on an annual basis and are in separate divisions, it's off the list.
 
The only correct answer is ugag, clemson and auburn. And the order would switch between auburn and clemson if we played them more often.
 
Baseball:
1) Clemson (and it's not really close)
2) Virginia
3) FSU or UGA

Clemson and us have had some pretty crazy games the past few years, with the peak in 2006, when we played each other seven times - which is of course an insane amount for college baseball. Most of those games were pretty notable too:

Three game set at the Rusty C in April, No. 5 Clemson at No. 10 GT:
Game 1: Clemson jumps out to a 6-0 lead, but the Jackets tie it up with 6 in the 6th, though Clemson wins on a two-out RBI double in the 8th, 7-6.
Game 2: Nothing too special, Tech pours on 6 in the 8th to turn it into a rout, 12-3.
Game 3: Tech jumps out to a 6-0 lead in the first and never looks back, winning 22-4. Notable for Jack Leggett unsuccessfully bringing in closer Daniel Moskos to stop the bleeding while trailing by 15.

The ACC Tournament:
Game 4: Clemson leads 2-0 going into the 8th in the winner's bracket game, but Tech ties it up. However, Clemson wins it in the 9th, 3-2, to send Tech to an elimination game.
Game 5: In an elimination game for the Jackets, Tech scores two in the bottom of the 9th to tie the game, and wins it in the 10th when Wally Crancer slashes a fake bunt over the head of the third baseman, and Tech snaps Clemson's 17 game winning streak.
Game 6: Later that day, Tech and Clemson met in an elimination game that started at 10:29 pm. With both sides having very little pitching left over, the game is a 6-6 tie until Clemson scores 10 in the 9th to make it a 16-6 game. Tech can only muster 5 runs, and Clemson wins 16-11 in a game that ends at 1:27 am, sending the Jackets back to Atlanta. Clemson would win the ACC title game later that day. Of note, Luke Murton hit three HRs for Tech, all after midnight.

College World Series:
Game 7: Tech takes a 4 run lead over the No. 1 seed into the 8th, but the bullpen collapses and the Tigers score 8 in the bottom of the 8th to win 8-4.

Tech and Clemson were both in the top 10 during all seven games. I don't know what a good comparison for football would be... I guess it would be like Georgia and Auburn playing in the regular season, then again in the SEC title game, and somehow getting matched up again in the BCS - with one team ending the other's chances for a conference and national title, on separate occasions.
