They might have the same problem in 2016 if they keep canceling those games.

Bama has nothing to gain at all for playing those schools.

If we are going to "keep it in state" we might as well play Alabama State.

Unbelievable. "Nobody will play us......but we cancel series with quality teams who will".

Personally, I'd love to see a home and away series with UVA - considering I live 30 minutes from there.

How bout the tigers and tide just duke it out twice, each with a home game? This would be mainly for selfish reasons bc the atmosphere and tailgating is fricking amazing for this game, it would be fun to have it at both schools in the same season. I know, I know, 21-0 who gives a shite? It's just a game, have some whiskey and enjoy it.

I would love to keep Michigan State and Georgia Tech on the schedule, but if we do get the 2016 opener versus Southern California I can live with canceling either.

You're fricking kidding me?

That is gross incompetence IMO if the guy in charge of your schedule can't remember that offhand. We're not talking 2026 schedule, we're talking NEXT SEASON.

And it makes me think he's full of shite about the rest of the stuff he says if he's either too stupid or too lazy to remember that.

Also a very smart business man who made serious bank when he sold CLC. He's likely has a higher net worth than just about every administrator and coach in collegiate athletics.
