On Wednesday, Alabama worked outdoors in sunny, 67-degree conditions for its final media viewing.
The Crimson Tide is set to battle Auburn on Saturday in the Iron Bowl at Jordan-Hare Stadium. For the fourth time in 13 seasons, Nick Saban will take on a ranked group of Tigers.
While he is 8-4 all-time versus Auburn, three of his four defeats have come against ranked Tiger teams.
The Tide still has a lot to play for — especially if it finds a way to handle Auburn convincingly on the road.
It needs Utah to lose and Oklahoma to drop a game, but Alabama must first beat the Tigers.
