Iron Bowl 2023: Alabama vs. Auburn game odds, predictions
Coming into the regular season finale, there is still a sliver of hope that Alabama could sneak its way into the College Football Playoff, but it has to win this week and next and hope for some chaos in the rankings for that to happen. For now, the Crimson Tide needs to get past Auburn in this year's edition of the Iron Bowl Game.
- Alabama is 7-0 in SEC play this season, and has clinched the West Division with a date against No. 1 Georgia in the league title game to start December
- The loss early this year against Texas still hurts the Crimson Tide's reputation in the eyes of the committee
- Auburn dropped a surprise decision at home last week against New Mexico State, which came into Jordan-Hare as 25.5 point underdogs
- First-year coach Hugh Freeze is 6-5 overall and 3-4 in SEC play in his Auburn debut, and is 2-3 against Nick Saban in his career
