I know right? Holy shite USC has some impressive stats...I didn't know they had that many Heisman winners and blow Bama out on draft picks.

Bama has played almost every national power the past few years and people are still complaining that they dont play anyone..i mean, who else is left? Oregon, Stanford maybe..

Well, you have to make an effort to pick up theses high profile teams. How many years have Alabama tried to do this? Since Saban has been at Bama, he's made an effort to schedule these type games. Who else has measured up?

Great matchup, but it sucks that it is a neutral site game.

No it doesn't...went to the Michigan game and it was an awesome experience. You ever been to the LA Coliseum?

I get it. There's something to be found wrong with anything Bama does.

So, even though your school shys awway from big out of conference games, it's especially not right that Alabama embraces it. West Virginia this year, Wisconsin next, and USC in 2016.

As an old time Tiger, I am no fan of either team, even with bama repping the SEC. Best game scenerio then would be for bama to win on the last play of the game on another blown call in their favor. But wondering how much Jerry will charge for this marquee game in his stadium? Mite well set a record for highest ticket price ever.

Pretty sure 14&Counting's school is the same as your school. The name tends to give it away.

You can't necessarily go by the school affiliations next to the name around here. Some people, for whatever reason (bets, contrariness, gastric disorder, etc) switch to other schools on occasion.

Did you just accidentally out yourself as an alter? You need to brush up on your zany antics. Try staging two dates for the same restaurant on the same night for practice. Trust me, you'll learn. You'll learn.

ETA: You were replying to the second part of my post. Sigh. The life of a Vandy fan is so hard.

Alabama has played a lot of big names but not necessarily a lot of great teams. Michigan, Florida State, and Penn State were all pretty mediocre when Alabama played them. Why don't you schedule Florida State now?

Holy shite that's awesome. I've been wanting lsu to do this for years now. Just don't embarrass us like Arkansas did.


They would've kicked anyones arse that year from the SEC. We played at their house with Leinart, Bush etc etc. We had zero chance in that game.

Oh by the way, we were in the SEC championship game the next season.

You laugh, but I rarely tell any casual acquaintances I graduated from Vandy for the same reason comedians hate telling people they're comedians. The expectations are nerve-wracking. Pity me, for I am one of the damned.
