Bama has no edge, no aura, no intimidation with milquetoast Deboar at coach in the NIL era. Easily one of the most overrated teams in the country. Playing in a must win game with max pressure on the road in primetime. This has the feel of the 2013 kick six match up for some magic to happen. Go ahead and look up the results of Bama playing in Auburn historically. It's either a loss or a very close win nearly every time. Bama does not win by more than a TD in Auburn, especially not without Saban.
The line of 5.5 is suspiciously low given the wide public perception gap between Bama (seen as super elite) and Auburn (seen as bottom of the barrel trash), reflected in 67% of bets on Bama - yet the line hasn't moved. The preseason line on this was 6.5...after all that's happen with Auburn seemingly falling apart, the line is somehow lower. To put it in perspective in 2017, #6 Auburn was +6 at home (won SU) vs #1 Bama. Auburn today is +5.5 at home while being 1-6 in the SEC. Auburn was very competitive vs top 10 competition this year - @TAM, UGA, @OU - was leading/close in all of these games and lost by some bad misfortune. All of this equals Auburn may be the most underrated team in the country compared to their record
Auburn is playing with 0 pressure, they already died weeks ago, season was RIP, now they are back with a second life playing loose and free. After clunking long on offense almost all season, they've scored season highs in points the last few weeks, going to Vandy on the road in OT, a game they would have rolled over and got blown out with Hugh Freeze. Under new HC DJ Durkin and new QB Ashton Daniels starting in place of Jackson Arnold, they have new life and aren't the same team.
Auburn wins SU - quintessential college football upset spot
Auburn +6.5 -110 - sitting a full point better than the market RIGHT NOW at Bookmaker. This will close at 5/5.5. Most valuable info right there posted on this forum. Don't mention it
