This doesn't make much sense to me. They're divisional foes and will play every year unless expansion changes the alignment. And one team has to win every season.

I get wanting to hype a game and all, but they could have come up with something less forced.

ESPN knows that people have very short memories, and people are stupid.

So what other name can they use to sell it?

Well if you hate TAMU, you should be excited. Didn't work out too well for Bama's opponent in the last rematch.

Just typical media propaganda to sell ratings.They obsess over one player. Nothing new to see here.

I agree 100%. I can't wait to see undefeated LSU walk into T-Town to face undefeated Bama and best their arse. I also see A&M spiraling downward after Bama beats them by 30 and have 4 losses when they come into Tiger Stadium to end their miserable season with another 30 point loss.

Should they just call it "Game?"

Its Saban and Johnny Football. The only things ESPN loves more than those two are New York teams and Tebow

Only a delusional Aggie would laugh at the future that awaits their miserable existence.

I'm a redneck living in coonass country, fwiw.

Yeah. I get its a "rematch." But so are 90% of the games played every season.
