Per Saturday Down South. What are y'alls thoughts on taking games over seas? Personally I don't understand this at all.

Well, I'm sure Scott would love to do it- and then move it to Thursday night. Exposure baby!


I'm thinking Bama is probably trying to get a home and home with Notre Dame out of this is my guess. That or they are trying to get a Ireland/Tuscaloosa/South Bend three year series going.

I think it's smart on their part- build an international fan base.

I understand Notre Dame playing in Ireland but wtf.... Alabama?

IF you are going to do this why not go to London or New York City. Or if they wanted to keep the theme going like ND/Ireland they could clear a lot in The Pines. That'd fit.

I'm surprised that ND would ever choose to play Bama again.

I think the overseas thing is stupid, but something like Daytona for a Florida/FSU matchup (previously discussed on here or somewhere) is bad ass.

I want to see Va Tech-Tennessee at Bristol

Bristol would be awesome. Imagine a football game here:

I think an Iron Bowl at Talladega would be a hell of a time
