Trick-or-treating is one of the most joyous things you can experience as a youngster. Watching SEC football isn’t too far behind.

With Halloween a day away, it seemed like a good time to compare each team to a trick-or-treat item given during this holiday. Disclaimer: Not all teams will be compared to candy.

Without further ado, here are the Halloween item comparisons for each SEC team.

Alabama

Ghirardelli chocolate: There was always that one house in your neighborhood that every kid loved going to. The owners of the house were gracious and gave out full candy bars year after year. The Ghirardelli options you picked out were always phenomenal.

It’s consistently the best type of chocolate, just like Alabama is consistently the best football team in America. That statement is true once again in 2017.  It doesn’t matter what flavor because all of the varieties are fantastic. It doesn’t matter how many freshmen Nick Saban plays because he quickly molds them into champions.

Arkansas

Sugar free candy: The owners welcome you when you arrive on their doorstep. They are showering you with nice comments about your costume, drawing your attention away from the items being dispersed. After getting home, you examine what the kind family gave you.

The candy looks good, but the brand is unfamiliar. After taking a bite, it tastes funny. Looking at the wrapper, the label stands out. The sugar section lists 0 grams.

Nothing worse than sugar free candy. Looks great, tastes terrible.

Auburn

Dove chocolate: Dove is one of the better pieces of chocolate in the United States. There are many different flavors, and the treat has a strong fan base. Though the sweet is popular, the executives are over-concerned on what their rival Ghirardelli is up to.

Auburn fans and boosters have the unfortunate circumstance of competing in the same state as Alabama. Even though the Tigers are typically one of the better teams in the country, Auburn is never satisfied. If the Tigers don’t beat Alabama, it’s an unsuccessful season.

Florida

Harry Potter Bertie Bott’s jelly beans: Sometimes the jelly beans can taste great and other times they are awful. It’s exciting when you open a package and you notice a flavor you haven’t tried before. Florida was inconsistent under former coach Jim McElwain, especially this season. Just like the jelly beans, you never know what to expect from the Gators.

Georgia

Hershey’s Cookies n Creme bar: This is one of the most underrated treats. People forget how good the candy bars taste. When you find one with the other candy in your bag, the discovery brings a smile to your face.

Even in a down year, Georgia is pretty good. People are starting to remember how dominant it can be in a weakened SEC East. Kirby Smart has this team rolling again, bringing happiness to many Bulldogs fans.

Kentucky

100 Grand: It is actually worth one’s while to purchase this piece of candy, but no one gives it a second look. Sounds like Kentucky football. Fans should care about the improvement, but most don’t.

LSU

Pop Rocks: This candy is some of the most fun to intake. It’s exciting and there’s a lot going on in your mouth. Once the tiny pebbles are done popping, the aftertaste isn’t so great.

LSU football is similar. The Tigers are flashy with great recruits, blazing speed and a daunting stadium, but they haven’t contended for the SEC West in a while. LSU will lose to Alabama again in 2017 and the season won’t seem so great after its conclusion.

Mississippi State

Butterfinger: Every once in a while, you’re blown away by how good it tastes. It mixes well with other pieces of candy and always tastes better than you remember. Not many have bad things to say about it.

Dan Mullen’s squad is one of the most undervalued teams year after year. The Bulldogs crushed a rising LSU and still have a couple enticing games left on their schedule. Don’t shrug off a Butterfinger or Mississippi State.

Missouri

Toothbrushes: Some actually consider this a treat that trick-or-treaters will enjoy receiving. No one wants a toothbrush on Halloween, just like no one really wanted Missouri in the SEC. The Tigers are making people roll their eyes, just like people who give out toothbrushes.

Ole Miss

Tootsie Pop: Is it really worth all those licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop? Ole Miss fans can ask themselves if the sketchy things occurring within their program were worth a few good seasons. Now, the football team is heading for turmoil.

Some say it was worth it. Others would disagree.

South Carolina

Candy apples: Sure, they are good, but you never know what’s going to happen. Many kids have pulled out teeth after biting into this delectable delicacy. The apples look awesome but can be harmful.

South Carolina had a good outlook on the season. A solid quarterback and a good defense, but Deebo Samuel’s injury changed everything. Like a child missing a tooth, the Gamecocks are without a vital cog in their offense.

Tennessee

Snickers: This candy bar thinks it’s better than it actually is. It has good qualities but pales in comparison to certain other “Top Dogs” in the candy world. No one is thrilled about getting a Snickers in their bag.

Tennessee football hasn’t been great in a while and fans have higher expectations than they should. Butch Jones and his squad haven’t delivered in 2017.

Texas A&M

Sour Patch Kids: Kids are always excited when Sour Patch Kids are found in their bag. They taste great at first, but lose their flavor quickly. Texas A&M is all to similar.

Everyone is always excited about the Aggies before the season begins because of their strong recruiting classes. With the exception of UCLA, Texas A&M looked good to start the season, winning four straight games at one point. The team usually collapses after losing to Alabama, but responded with a win at Florida.

It remains to be seen if that was an anomaly, or if the Aggies have found a way to press on despite failures in the past to do so.

Vanderbilt

None: One house is highly decorated outside. There are blowups and decorations inside and out. In the front of the house, there is a big sign telling young ones and their families that the owners will be passing out candy on Halloween.

The night of, many make their way over the that particular house. Only one problem — the lights are off and nobody is home. All that talk and no results.
