Trivia Question #4 - This school, not named Alabama, use to not play their home games against Georgia Tech and Tennessee at their home stadium. Instead they chose another city to play them in. This continued up until 1970 for their home match up with Georgia Tech and up until 1978 for their match up with Tennessee.

Which school am I referring to and what stadium?


I would guess Auburn back when they would play some home games at Legion Field.

Yes, already answered, but another interesting fact is there were sometimes double headers played at Legion Field. On at least one occasion the Alabama - LSU game was played there on the same day as the Auburn - Tennessee game. I'm sure there were quite a few fights with all those fans in the same parking lots.

Trivia Question #5 - Which SEC school use to play some of their home games in the 1940's, 1950's and 1960's in their rivals home stadium? This stadium also had double headers due it being used by the home team and the rival for home games on the same day.
