Alabama vs. Auburn live score, updates, highlights from 2023 Iron Bowl game

By | November 25, 2023

Rivalry weekend in college football is full of fun and games, and few beat Alabama vs. Auburn in the Iron Bowl.

Unsurprisingly, the Tide have been the latest winners, on a three-game win streak. Once again, they’re poised to beat Auburn, led by Hugh Freeze for the first time. If this hate-filled matchup has taught us anything though, don’t count out the underdog.

Alabama secured its place in the SEC Championship Game against Georgia but is now fighting for a spot in the College Football Playoff. With a consistent Jalen Milroe behind the ball, a loss to Auburn seems unlikely. But the Tigers have shown us the power of Jordan-Hare Stadium, just missing out on a defeat of Georgia. They enter the Iron Bowl coming off a stunning loss to New Mexico State, which seems to have the upper hand against Freeze.

Going into Tiger territory with vengeance on their mind is not something to take lightly, even if you are Nick Saban. Besides bowl placement, Auburn has nothing more to lose this year.
