AJC: Tide-Va. Tech could still happen

Mr. College Football reports a 2009 Atlanta football game between the Alabama Crimson Tide and Virginia Tech could happen.

Barnhart talked with Saban, and this is the obstacle to the game:

Alabama is scheduled to go to Tulane in 2009 as a part of a contract that called for Tulane to play multiple games in Tuscaloosa in exchange for one game in New Orleans. Saban said if Alabama could move the Tulane game to another season and pick up another home game then he would be willing to come to Atlanta and play the Hokies.

    I’d like to see more home and home series instead of one game at a neutral site.

    I would rather play VT than Western Kentucky.

    According to the Barnies, we were too scared to play VT.

    What happened? What will their next predictably childish strike be?
