"October 9, 1982 - #3 Penn State @ #4 Alabama"
From Football Fury
This game was played at Birmingham Legion Field, in Birmingham, Alabama (naturally) but this was essentially home game for the Alabama Crimson Tide. Birmingham is only about a hour north of Tuscaloosa where the Crimson Tide play most of their home games every year. The Pennsylvania Nittany Lions (as I call them) coming down from State College, which is just outside of Philadelphia, about 1500 miles from Birmingham.

I give you this geographical information because I want to bore you into a coma. Actually, there's another reason. This was a road game (essentially) for the Nittany Lions and yet they go down to Alabama and beat an excellent Crimson Tide team on the road.
