The current betting odds have Auburn listed as a 14.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Auburn hasn't looked great in a lot of their games this season with their 6-5 record overall and they have struggled a lot against SEC opponents with their 3-4 conference record in Hugh Freeze's 1st season as head coach. Meanwhile, Alabama has looked really good this season with their 10-1 record overall and they have looked even better in their games lately as they are 7-0 in conference games this year. Alabama has looked really good lately as they seem to be getting hot now toward the end of the season but they also have no reason to really try in this game. They have already booked their spot in the SEC Championship against Georgia and their only focus right now is going to be winning that game. Auburn has looked terrible lately and just lost at home to New Mexico State last week, but they were also already bowl eligible going into that game and were looking ahead to this one with a chance to ruin any chance Alabama might have of going to the CFB this year. Auburn has all the motivation in this game and Hugh Freeze will be looking to make an impression in this game against one of the best teams in the conference. The best way to place a bet here is on Auburn to cover the spread in this game.
