07/01/2010 - Tuscaloosa, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Georgia State at Alabama football game has been moved up two days to Thursday, Nov. 18 at Bryant-Denny Stadium, the two schools announced Thursday.

Kickoff time and television exposure are to be determined.

"This whole Alabama opportunity has been a huge boost for our program from the very beginning," Georgia State head coach Bill Curry said. "We are fortunate to be able to play a game in Tuscaloosa, and we believe that moving from Saturday to Thursday can give it added appeal for our players and our fans because Thursday night games have become so special in college football.

"We'll make the necessary adjustments and go play the game."
