It has certainly not been a smooth ride, but we made it to the Iron Bowl.
Auburn and Alabama are just a day away from their annual matchup, and while Nick Saban will be unable to coach the game after testing positive for COVID-19, all signs point to the game being good to go, something that is not a given in 2020.
While the loss of Saban could help Auburn, the No. 1 Crimson Tide are still massive favorites thanks to ranking sixth in total offense with 548.6 yards per game and third in scoring offense by putting up 49.4 points per game and have the advantage of the game being played in Tuscaloosa.
Here’s why Crimson Tide should be expected to come out on top Saturday afternoon.
