Alabama endured a hostile environment and four overtime periods to pull out a 24-22 victory in 2021. The Tide suffered defeats to the Tigers in 2017 and 2019, missing out on Southeastern Conference Championship opportunities. Hugh Freeze, Auburn’s head coach, had not had an incredible first year. He can salvage the season with a victory over Alabama to enter the postseason.

According to Circa Sports, the Tide is a significant favorite.
