Alabama and Miami could be playing each other in the near future – nearly 30 years after their last meeting.

The Tuscaloosa News reported Wednesday night that the two schools are in negotiations to play against each other in the 2021 Chick-fil-A Game.

If Alabama and Miami do meet in 2021, it would be the first time the schools have met on the football field since the Crimson Tide’s 34-13 victory over the Hurricanes in the Sugar Bowl to win the 1992 national championship. The Crimson Tide leads the all-time series 14-3.

Miami’s last victory over Alabama came in a 33-25 decision in the 1990 Sugar Bowl to conclude the 1989 season.
