re: Auburn & Bama Fans: Question regarding the return of UAB football

Now that I think about it, they could in addition to UAB add Troy or South Alabama into the deal and over a 10 year span each team could save about $30 million dollars. And all the while pumping millions extra into the state's economy year after year.

well, one thing I wouldn't like is that the fact that Ladd would be filled with more Tide fans than South fans. They wouldn't play down here anyway. In the 1920's they would though...

plus a lot of the students at South (at least when I was there) cared more about Alabama/Auburn football. I guess its different now but it can't be by that much.

we couldn't even sellout the Mississippi State game last year and that was even after they brought several thousand fans to the game. I give them props too b/c thaT Game meant nothing to them and it was hot as frick and the concessions were poorly run.
