“Bama was ahead of the curve for years, I thought, on how they scheduled in the non-conference,” Riley said. “They would occasionally hit the marquee non-conference game. They’d play two other not-very-good teams; they’d play one late, so they got essentially a little bit of a bye week there late in the season. They didn’t schedule for their fans. They scheduled to win championships."

“My hope is we can do the best thing, schedule to win championships that include a rivalry game for all that comes with that and all that it means. But if you get into these positions, you’ve got to make a decision on what the priority is,” Riley added.
