Shutting the program down is ridiculous.

Most people who grew up and live in and around Birmingham or either Alabama or Auburn fans. 51.8% of all households in the B'ham area were tuned into the Iron Bowl last night. How many people watched UAB play Southern Miss yesterday?

Those people should probably go to games and/or donate more money

To be honest, they never should have been a FBS program in the first place. FCS suits the program well.

I'm a UAB alum, donate and travel to games as well. Some guys act as though the money is coming directly out of their pockets to support the system. It's insensitive to those of us who actually attended UAB. #GoBlazers #FreeUAB

If I was a fan, I don't care where they play the game. I would be there.

Most people don't want their cars broken into Everytime they go to a game on Saturday.

Legion is just a bad area in general. If they moved it more people would go.

I've never had a problem at LF and have never seen anyone else have a problem.

Don't give a shite what you believe. Don't be a dumbass by parking in someone's yard and you won't have a problem.

Such a bullshite answer, no one goes because they will miss the real games that they care about going on at the same time. I'm sick of certain auburn sports personalities carrying water and propping up a program that has no real fan base in some weird around the corner shot at Alabama.

Hell the xfl had better attendance at the same stadium....why? Because it was during the offseason of college football.
