Alabama A&M coach Connell Maynor said it doesn’t matter to him where the Magic City Classic is played.

“My job is getting my team prepared and have a good performance and win the football game,” he said. “If it’s in (Legion Field) or it’s in the new stadium … I’ve just gotta get us prepared.”

There is a question on many lips as kickoff for the McDonald’s Magic City Classic presented by Coca-Cola draws near: Is the annual football game between Alabama State and Alabama A&M universities going to remain at Birmingham’s historic Legion Field or could it move to the new Protective Stadium at the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex?
