FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME DAY...DARIUS RUCKER

TIDEFAN FARE PRESENTS:
SAY WHAT? WEDNESDAYS
When compiling fun facts for "the fans" for Southern Livings The Official SEC Tailgating Cookbook, I had the opportunity to ask several notables a few questions in regards to Southern food and game day in general. There wasn't room to run it all in the cookbook but I thought you may be interested in what they had to say...to you, the fans!

1. Is there one food or recipe in particular that it just wouldn't be game day without?

Darius: It wouldn't be game day for me without fried chicken. I just love it-- that's tailgating and football on Saturday for me.

2. Regardless of what the sports reporters and critics declare, who do you personally think is your schools biggest rival?

Darius: Our school's biggest rival is definitely Clemson. No doubt about that.

3. What team do you just want to clobber on the field?

Darius: I just really want to beat Alabama because to win a National Championship, you've got to go through Alabama.

4. Biscuits or cornbread?

Darius: Biscuits.

Check back on Wednesdays to see what other game day notables had to say on the subject of tailgating, football, and Southern food faves.
