The Iron Bowl is still the gold standard for college football rivalries. Other fans across the country try to say every year they have the best rivalry, but we know the truth. ESPN doesn’t make movies about Michigan vs. Ohio State or Texas vs. Oklahoma. There is nothing quite like watching Auburn football vs. Alabama football.
So, what can we expect from the big game this year?
Auburn had somewhat of an embarrassing offseason, especially at the beginning. They lost former 4-star in-state RB Asa Martin to Miami after what can only be described as a debacle.
