Week 13 – Nov. 28: Home vs. Alabama, Jordan-Hare Stadium Auburn, Alabama
The Iron Bowl will be a nail bitter like usual. In 2015, Alabama will look to lockup their spot in the SEC Championship in this game by getting revenge for the ‘Kick Six’ game in 2013 in Jordan-Hare Stadium.
Derrick Henry and the running backs for Alabama will find similar success to Fournette and Chubb against the Tigers defense that seems to not show up when it matters the most in 2015.
Auburn will finish second or third in the SEC West behind Alabama and potentially LSU or Ole Miss. Quarterback Jeremy Johnson will potentially forgo his senior year and declare for the NFL Draft.
The Tigers will miss out on the SEC Championship game as well as the College Football Playoff but will most likely play in a New Year’s Day bowl game where they blowout a team from the ACC or Big Ten.
Record after week 13: 9-3
