You are cordially invited to the University of Alabama in beautiful Tuscaloosa on Saturday, November 6th for ACF Fall South.

I think you copied a little bit too much.

Are there any field updates on this?

I was wondering the same. LASA is considering coming up for this, but I won't know for sure until later in the week.

I have heard interest from Harding, Cistertian, possibly LASA, and one OU team.

I have added the building location and a hotel recommendation to the main post.
