Alabama will not play in state teams. Practically forced to play Auburn. I don't understand it really. The "Nothing to gain" argument doesn't really work. Already playing 1-2 CUSA payday teams and an FCS team every year as it is.

It would be great for the state for Troy, UAB, and USA to play Auburn/Alabama at some point. At least the payday home games would be more interesting.

Yes, would be good for them. Does nothing for us. Keeping the money in state is a tired argument. When UAB plays Florida that money they get works just as good in Alabama as it does in Florida. If you look around the country you will see there are other teams that don't support the one's who cant carry their weight. LSU-Tulane used to play every year. Why don't they play now. Tulane is much bigger name with much more history than UAB. Would be great for the state of LA, blah blah. I'll bet the answer falls somewhere along the lines of what I said about having nothing to gain.
