Possible look ahead spot for the Alabama Crimson Tide with Auburn on deck, but this could also be a game where they want to take out some frustration. Two losses, no trip to the SEC title game and likely no layoff berth, this has been a disappointing season for the Tide. We could very well see Alabama put things together to just take out some frustration on little old Austin Peay. I’ll lay whatever number oddsmakers throw out there.
