BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - Have you made plans for Thanksgiving yet? I've got an idea. How about going to see a college football game? It won't be just another game. It'll be a traditional in-state rivalry game. It won't be played in just any stadium.
It'll take place in a brand-new, 26,500-seat, on-campus stadium, and this rivalry game on Thanksgiving Day will be the very first game played in that stadium.
I'm not talking hypotheticals here. I'm not envisioning UAB vs. Troy at Bartow Field in Birmingham in 2020. Well, I am envisioning that kind of game in that kind of house on the UAB campus one day, but that vision is cloudy.
Why? See the Tuscaloosa tunnel vision of the University of Alabama System board of trustees and its new chancellor, Dr. Robert Witt.
The game I'm talking about isn't something to envision. It's something to anticipate because it's going to happen this year.
