This conference has produced numerous titles in all divisions of athletics, most notably in football (on the only two occasions where the Football Bowl Series national championship game featured two teams from the same conference, both times the SEC had the featured teams).
The SEC leads in average attendance in most of the major sports: only one of its football stadiums seats less than 50,000 fans while two of its basketball arenas set over 20,000 and two of its baseball stadiums officially seat over 10,000.
Although the teams feature fierce rivalries during play, camaraderie between fans is exceptionally strong: it is frequent to hear fans chant "SEC" when an SEC team is defeating another conference team in a national title game (to the disdain of [[liberal elite]]s who hate sports and the Southern United States equally).
