The Tiger Band had a long standing tradition of bringing the whole band to either the Auburn or Alabama game each year. This was because of the importance of these two SEC West games. Now, as reported in the Advocate, the Aleva administration (supported by F King) only sends the whole band to "neutral" sites.
SHAMEFUL.

And, as I noted a few days ago (p. 7), neutral site games are like bowl games: the sponsors and/or networks pay most (if not all) of the expenses for taking the band, so Alleva can say the band gets to travel to an away game while not having to pay for them to go to a crucial SEC game.
