I thought we should have at least one UAB thread on the SEC Rant that dealt with the SEC.

If they haven't played, why is Alabama so afraid?

There's no point in playing them.

Why not?

There is no point in South Carolina playing Wofford or Furman, but we do.

We'll let you and all the other UAB sympathizers play them.

There are only so many second tier teams we can play in one season.

On that subject, when do we play South Carolina again?

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.

Saban is afraid of us since we pimp slapped them in 2010.

Aren't y'all (along with Clemson) required to play an in-state FCS school annually?

That was only time we were really whipped under Saban, not counting his first year without any of his own players. I will joke with you gamecocks all day long, but I respect that game. Nobody else in the SEC has been able to do what you did that day, against an incredibly talented team.

No. Not that I'm aware. Clemson and South Carolina just like spreading the money around the state to the smaller schools.

Yea, we've done a pretty good job at either playing a FCS school from Texas or an old SWC team who never made the jump. I like playing old SWC teams who never made the jump

Bama already gives them millions of $$, just to survive. Why pay them another million to beat them down?

I don;t know. I don't make the Alabama schedule. I wouldn't mind playing them, but really couldn't care less if we do or don't.

Alabama playing UAB would be like making out with your sister...

Which explains why Auburn and South Carolina fans are so obsessed with watching us do that. Incestuous pervs.

Bama doesn't give UAB football any $$$ to survive. Not sure where you pull this out from.
