Question: 2017 Alabama Football Schedule

Eh, perhaps, but you are talking about a different time and era. SEC was in its infancy too so, though I hear what you are saying I wouldn't bet on another team benefitting from playing Bama.

I certainly respect your opinion. I just think if we played any team on a regular basis, they would become relevant. But, like they say, you can take my opinion and five bucks and buy a Starbucks. I guess they are five bucks, but I never go to Starbucks.

I don't think we would play them on a regular basis. That's only for SEC competition only. I wouldn't mind seeing Bama destroy Troy once.

Talk of Alabama playing in-state teams is worse than the hat thread.

But again what do we gain from a home and home. The only teams we would profit from are Texas, OU, ND,Michigan, and tOSU. That's because they are affordable trips amongst loyal fan bases. Playing teams like USC, Oregon, Stanford, and teams of great distance would be a one sided affair in which scalpers would blow sky high when the game is at BDS. But the teams I mentioned that would be profitable will never commit to a home and home with Bama mostly because of having a two year commitment plan with us, and another is to keep championship aspirations alive.

It's just nostalgia for me. How awesome would it be to see Alabama play at the Horseshoe? Or to see Notre Dame at Bryant-Denny?

But it's pure nostalgia. I know what the reality of the game is today, and how it's not going to change.
