UM vs. Alabama question

SHort and sweet. Did that game ever get finalized and if it hasn't, is it still a possibility?

the game for 2011 in Jerry Jone's funhouse has just been finalized (Oregon vs. LSU.)

I'm guessing since the UM v. Alabama tilt is rumored for 2012, we might see it finalized in approximately a year.

of Oregon vs. LSU? Would we get a similar or better deal being a somewhat more prominent (at least historically) program? Would it be worth our while financially to sacrifice an extra home game (I would say yes given the media frenzy that would come with the game)?

According to Brian's original post, I think Jerry Jones would "grossly overpay" for this game, and we'd make a killing, which is probably more than the Oregon-LSU deal. They're great schools and programs, but Michigan and Alabama will generate the most national buzz (and therefore revenue) of probably any potential matchup.
