UGA vs UofSC Honors?

I am looking at the University of Georgia and University of South Carolina, and the Honor Colleges at both. Could someone please let me know about their experiences at either and/or a comparison of the two? The weather, atmosphere of the school, honors college, non-honors classes, campus, and surrounding area. Also, I am very liberal and not religious, would that play a role in which school I would feel more comfortable?
