Auburn vs. Alabama Same Game Parlay Picks, Odds & Predictions

The No. 13 Alabama Crimson Tide will need to destroy the Auburn Tigers in the yearly installment of the Iron Bowl and get a whole lot of help from other unsuspecting teams to have any shot of punching a ticket back to the College Football playoff following last week’s debacle in Norman. Either way, one of the purest college football rivalries in the nation should have both sides going all-out when the teams take to the gridiron to lock horns in the 88^th installment of the feud. Linemakers at Caesars Sportsbook opened this bad boy up with host Bama laying 13-points on the NCAAF odds and the total lined 51. Each market has been corrected since with the CFB spread down to 11.5 and the O/U up 1.5-points to 52.5. Apparently, college football bettors are bullish of the War Eagle hanging around in a high scorer!

Auburn Tigers vs. Alabama Crimson Tide CFB Same Game Parlay:

Auburn will hit the turf of Bryant Denny Stadium knowing full well what needs to be done for its 2024-25 campaign to continue. It must win at all costs to become bowl eligible while at the same time avoid suffering a hangover from the euphoria gained from scoring that huge OT win against Texas A&M last week. A tough sell no doubt, but Payton Thorne and Co. have nobody to blame but themselves for being in this position due to getting out to such a slow start. Think they’re kicking themselves over dropping that 21-14 decision to Cal at home back in Week 2? They went off the board double-digit favorites on the CFB odds to win that game! One-possession defeats to Oklahoma and Missouri didn’t help matters either. Regardless, the War Eagle enters this tilt in its best form of the year having logged wins in three of their last four games both SU and ATS. It’s also a half-point away from covering each of the last three times it ventured away from Jordan-Hare.

Catastrophic is the only way to describe what went down in Oklahoma last Saturday night when the Crimson Tide got manhandled by the Sooners en route to dropping a one-sided 24-3 decision as near two-touchdown road favorites. Jalen Milroe played a large role in the defeat after throwing a trio of costly interceptions and simply being unable to get anything done on the ground turning his 15 carries into seven total yards with the sack yardage lost taken into account. That my friends is simply unacceptable! Not with the team heading to Norman knowing full well that another loss would put the program in jeopardy of missing out on the expanded CFP with two losses already in tow. Even more shocking about the result was Bama entered the game firing on all cylinders defeating Mizzou, LSU, and Mercer by the aggregate score of 128-20 to easily cover the CFB odds each time. A paltry 234 yards of total offense is not what one would expect from a Kalen DeBoer coached offense. Whether it was a case of being fat and happy or the Tide simply choking is up for debate.

Alright No. 4, what you got?! It better be more than seven rushing yards buddy! Alabama’s offense is at peak form only when its dual-threat quarterback is able to make hay with both his arm and legs. Bama’s QB1 was held to 28 yards on 36 overall carries in the Tide’s three losses. As big a disappointment Auburn’s offense has been to date, the defense has more than held up with it allowing fewer than 320 yards per game (#24) and less than 21 points per game (#30). Regardless, Milroe must find a way to get the ground game going to enable the offense to operate at its highest level. If not, it’ll be another long day at the office. Thorne has been the root of many CFB bettors and fans issues with the Tigers to date. However, he’s coming off one of his best games of the year, and just so happens to have one of the nation’s best playmakers at his disposal in the form of Cam Coleman. No. 8 will pose a significant challenge for Alabama’s vulnerable secondary. While I expect the Crimson Tide, coming off an embarrassing loss, to rise to the occasion, a determined Auburn team will undoubtedly put up a fierce fight. Although the Tigers have lost the last four matchups in this rivalry, they’ve managed to cover the spread in the last three, and I anticipate that trend continuing in a tightly contested, lower-scoring game than expected.

• AUBURN TIGERS +11.5
• AUBURN/ALABAMA UNDER 52.5 POINTS
