🏈 Bama exploring Home and Home with Notre Dame and Texas

[TUSKtimes]

Now you're talking. Coach Saban has been chasing this down for a few years now. How cool would it be to have the Fighting Irish in BDS?

wow! how cool would it be to go to watch a Bama game at Notre Dame is what I'm thinking...

 

[252BAMA]

Lol! ND wouldn't even think about scheduling Bama before 2029.

Over the last decade, Alabama has been more inclined to play high-profile neutral-site games in locations like Atlanta and Arlington, Texas. The program has made tens of millions of dollars for season openers against the likes of Clemson, Virginia Tech, Michigan, Southern Cal, Florida State and others. Saban has touted the advantages of such games in terms of exposure and in motivating players in the offseason by having a high-profile game to start the season.​

​

It's part of the process.

Fan: "I don't like that part of the process."

It'd be nice to have a non-SEC, non-cupcake home and home. What was the last one? Penn State?

Kelly's expression was priceless

Overdue

Do it. I want a good excuse to make a road trip to Austin. Maybe even one to South Bend but only to see football stuff. Austin, many other things I would want to see and eat.

Being reported that Bama will be getting a rematch with USC in 2020 at Jerry's World. I've always had a lot of respect for the Trojan program over the years. Just the same, I know why Bama would say yes, but what was Helton thinking?

^He is angling to be the next former USC coach accepted into the Nick Saban School For Coaches Who Want To Learn To Coach Good And Stuff.

Would you rather a loss to Bama or a loss to cross-town UCLA take you out of the title hunt?

BTW, did any of you guys notice USC has ND scheduled for the next six years in a row? I'm not putting ND higher than they should be in terms of that being a really tough season-ender...but I know we'll hear about it non-stop the last weekend of November.

In terms of ratings that'll be a weekend to watch. 3:30 ET featuring what's likely to be a Bama vs Auburn game (nationally televised on CBS) versus a ND vs USC game (nationally on NBC.)

Rivalry weekend. Then championship weekend. Great football

Miami is still the Chick-fil-A special in 2021. It's good to have goals, mine is to outlive Saban.
