Alabama, because I think of Neil Young's song "Southern Man" and then consequently to his other song "Alabama".

I usually think of Georgia but South Carolina and Alabama most likely as well

Alabama or Georgia I guess.

Alabama has “Sweet Home Alabama,” To Kill a Mockingbird, etc. Georgia has Gone With the Wind and is kind of the heart of the South in many ways.

I think of Appalachian rednecks in WV/KY making moonshine. The most Southern thing to me is the Hatfield–McCoy feud which was a big dispute between the two families which led to over a dozen dead from both families.

I love Ole Miss, but I'd rather be at an LSU tailgate. The food is better.

LSU fans tend to be more generous with their liquor too. You're lucky if you can scrounge even a natty ice off an ole miss fan

Faulkner is a reason to associate the South with Mississippi, but there's no good reason to be a Faulkner fan unless you think good writing has nothing to do with being readable.
