re: Don't we have the best away fans?

I live in Birmingham and I can safely say that I'm a big Bama fan but I've only been to one A-Day under Saban. Have no interest in seeing a scrimmage where our offense usually plays like garbage.

I remember walking into the Georgia Dome two hours before the Clemson game in 2008 and seeing our entire half of the stadium full while Clemson was empty. Nevermind they were Top Ten and the dark horse National Championship team going into the game. I wish that was the case in Tampa but a lot has happened since then. It's human nature for our fans to not be as eager to shell out thousands to experience something they've already experienced several times before. That doesn't mean we still don't have the most passionate fanbase in college football.

I will say that this was the first time I've paid a lot of money to travel to a Championship game where we lost. It left a really bad taste in my mouth.
