ALABAMA (WKRG) — The Auburn Tigers head to Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa on Saturday to face the Alabama’s 8th-ranked Crimson Tide for the 87th Iron Bowl, perhaps the most storied rivalry game in college football.

Both teams are coming of two straight wins, Alabama (9-2) against Austin Peay at home and against Ole Miss in Oxford, Auburn (5-6) against West Kentucky and Texas A&M.

Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide have suffered two SEC losses this year, to Tennessee and LSU. Both defeats were close games, both on the road. Auburn has struggled this season, enduring a five-game losing streak midseason. But the Tigers appear at least re-energized under leadership of former Auburn running back and now head coach Carnell “Cadillac” Williams.

Both teams have a lot riding on the Iron Bowl this year. Alabama is still eyeing a narrow path to the playoffs. Auburn is driving for bowl game eligibility.
