"Auburn, Ala.--With a new head coach in Gene Chizik and a new staff, the Auburn Tigers will get a later start on spring football practice this year as Auburn’s annual A-Day game, which was originally scheduled for Sat., March 28, has been moved to Sat., April 18 at 1 p.m. CT."

I hope JHS is full and we "Beat 'Bama" (attendance) that day!

Is there an NCAA rule against Spring Games being held at night? Seems to me that would be an awesome idea for generating an A-Day crowd and an exciting atmosphere for the players to enjoy at the end of Spring practice.

Just wondering.

We could call it A-Night Game.

Finally! I might actually consider going now that it is not the same weekend as the 2nd round of the NCAA Basketball Tournament. That has always been my beef with A-Day.

I know A-Day is nothing but a glorified practice in front of the fans, but it still gives reason to make the 2 hour drive and grab a Lemonade.
