The Alabama Crimson Tide have put together a quality start to the regular season and they will look to grab a massive upset and a huge résumé boosting victory with a quality performance here on Wednesday night at home, Alabama comes into this game with four conference victories through their first five conference games of the regular season, and they will look to grab their biggest win of the season with an upset win at home over their archrivals here on Wednesday when they face the Auburn Tigers. This would be that résumé building victory that Alabama has been searching for throughout the early part of the regular season and they are favored in this game as many people expect them to upset the Auburn Tigers, although technically, if they are the betting favorites it wouldn’t be much of an upset.
Their home advantage will be huge throughout this game on Wednesday night. They will look to use that crowd to their advantage and pick up a quality victory here in this one. Alabama comes into this game with 12 victories through their first 18 games of the regular season and they will look to grab their 13th victory of the year here on Wednesday night. They come into this game on a huge winning streak, and with one of the best offenses in the country as they are averaging nearly 90 points per game, which has led to their success this year. A win in this game for Alabama would cement their status as a legitimate contender to win the SEC and potentially cement them as an at-large team for the NCAA tournament as well.
Betting trends to consider in this matchup:
- Auburn is 6-0 in the SEC
- Auburn is 14-1 after a win
- Alabama is 0-4 against ranked opponents
This is a game that could easily end up going either way, but in the end I look for the underdog Auburn Tigers to pull out the victory on the road in Tuscaloosa. Auburn has been a very tough team to beat this season as evident by their 16 victories and 18 games and I look for them to make it 17 out of 19 with another quality performance here on Wednesday night on the road against Alabama. Auburn has been undefeated in conference throughout the early part of the conference schedule and I expect that to continue throughout this game as well.
