The Auburn Tigers will travel to Tuscaloosa on Saturday for an SEC rivalry game against the Alabama Crimson Tide. This will the second edition of the basketball version of the Iron Bowl this season, as these 2 teams met in Auburn back on February 7. The Crimson Tide came away with a big road victory in that one and I expect them to get another win today. The Tigers are just 16-14 on the season and need another win to keep their tournament hopes alive, but I do not see them doing that. I am backing Alabama -8.

Alabama’s offense should have great success against a mediocre Auburn defense. The Crimson Tide scored 96 points in the last meeting and shot an impressive 52% from 3-point land. According to KenPom, Auburn’s defense is ranked just #115 in adjusted defensive efficiency and #345 in 3-point percentage. Alabama leads the country in 3-pointers per game at 13 and points per game at 92, so I do not see this Auburn defense giving the Tide much resistance. Let’s back ‘Bama to cover.

Auburn vs Alabama prediction: Alabama -8.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
