Rivalry Heats Up As Alabama, Auburn Fans Ready For Iron Bowl

“We have beefed up security at all mass gatherings including Alabama, Auburn and Jackson State and whatever large games are being played”. Alabama? Alabama just looks like a potential national champion. Peyton Barber is Auburn’s top rusher with 947 yards and 13 touchdowns and Ricardo Louis has 44 catches and three touchdowns. I don’t know who’s going to play in this game. The stakes for the game at Jordan Hare were at an all-time high for both teams: the victor would head to the SEC Championship game and remain in the hunt for a national championship game berth.

The week that all Auburn and Alabama fans wait on is finally here.

Before they get to Auburn on November 28, the Tide made sure that Charleston Southern (9-2) would not be a thorn in their side, as Alabama has bigger aspirations than just playing for and winning another Iron Bowl and another SEC title.

Robinson leads Alabama with eight quarterback hurries to go along with 36 tackles, seven tackles for loss and three sacks this season. Frost says even two years later he is still heartbroken.

Saban is attempting to sign a sixth straight No. 1 recruiting class at Alabama, and he’s within striking distance. The game appeared over as the Wolverines were punting from near midfield up four points with 10 seconds left.

The most popular story about the battle cry dates back to the first time Auburn met Georgia on the football field in 1892 and centers around a spectator who was a veteran of the Civil War. He is a threat to run the ball. The emotion, the fire, and everything that goes into a rivalry game will come out in the first quarter, and then the Alabama lines will take over. It could be a long day for whoever Auburn starts at quarterback against one of the best defenses in the country.
