Well that is stupid. There is no reason why Alabama can't drop Chattanooga or Middle Tennessee and play one of these in state schools. It is good for the state. Pay an in state school that money instead of some crappy out of state school.


How is it stupid? Why would Alabama want to help any other instate school out? Can you explain to me how it benefits Bama in anyway?

We agreed to play Auburn again and that was a mistake.

Yes, because using a publicly funded institution to further help the state of Alabama and other publicly funded Alabama institutions is just a terrible idea. Come on. If the state was smart, Alabama/Auburn/UAB/Troy/USA would be playing in football and basketball as much as possible. ESPECIALLY basketball. This state needs to become semi-relevant in basketball again.

It's been hard to get excited for Alabama or Auburn playing basketball period. At least adding a little in state rivalry into it makes it better.
