We pitched that in 2009 when the NCAA changed the rule to allow it if both teams consented, and Alabama declined.

Well, again, Alabama said they weren't interested in participating, at home or on the road, so it's not happening.

I like the idea. Maybe Saban just hated Kiff? Who doesnt?

Dooley should give it a shot...

Kiffin said we didn't have the talent to overcome the 15 yard penalty, or something along those lines. Talent or players or something. Seems like the penalty may have been inforced at the start of both halves. We're clearly not in the black & white TV era anymore which is why the rule was started, I agree, I think the rule should be squashed.

The best part of all this, when Kiffin tried 3 years ago, was when a Bama poster came on here to defend Saban's position of not wanting to do it. He said that Bryant-Denny was a classy and sacred place just like Wimbeldon and everyone had to wear white. Needless to say he got flamed pretty hard.

The rule should be squashed for a "rivalry game." Not no BS rivalry like "Alabama vs UF or LSU vs Bama" But a historic rivalry. Also the other team can't have the other teams color in their uniform. For example, When UT and UF play they couldn't do this because UF has orange in their uniform.

Thats an OLD tradition and Alabama is against it...Not sure WHY but they don't want to do it...UT/Bama used to play that way for many years until the NCAA required one team to wear white...Both teams can wear the home colors if both teams agree to it.

I honestly think that Saban didn't want to because he really didn't want Tennessee to beat to Alabama. He felt like Tennessee would be giving more hype going into that game.
