Auburn vs Alabama Prediction
Auburn is at its best at home, and home court can be a major difference maker in a rivalry game. The problem is you can make a strong argument that Alabama is the more talented team. An elite scoring offense and an underrated defense in terms of field goal percentage allowed, Alabama just has a higher ceiling, and there’s value in the underdog role. The underdog has outright won the last two games between Alabama and Auburn. Give me the free bucket.
