After it earned a 63-3 victory over Kentucky, Alabama is looking to avenge itself from last year’s loss to Auburn.

Despite not having Nick Saban on the sideline, due to mild COVID-19 concerns, the Crimson Tide carries an undefeated season into Bryant-Denny Stadium and is on pace for a national championship. During the 2019 matchup, Mac Jones was introduced to the Iron Bowl. He performed well, but he looks to put his team on the winning side this time. With the likes of ESPN pushing Kyle Trask of Florida into the front of the Heisman race, this is a matchup for Jones to prove he is the No. 1 leader in the conversation.

On Friday, the duo of Patrick Dowd (reporter/writer) and yours truly of Touchdown Alabama Magazine broke down both teams in a game day preview.
