One lucky teacher from Alabama will score tickets to watch the Alabama Crimson Tide take on the Auburn Tigers at the end of the month, courtesy of the king and queen of Alabama football.
The friendly philanthropic competition between the rival institutions will hold its kickoff event on the steps of the state capitol for the first time since 2019 on September 30.
2017 aside, the Iron Bowl is never irrelevant. The Crimson Tide will head to Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 27 to take on its biggest rival but the Auburn Tigers will be without two of its biggest names.
Auburn junior quarterback Bo Nix was one of three quarterbacks to appear at SEC Media Days 2021. While at the podium Nix was asked about new teammate Tony Fair and the comments he made about Alabama on social media. The third year starter from Pinson Valley High School is 1-1 in his two Iron Bowls and expressed confidence facing the Tide as the game will return to Jordan Hare Stadium this season.
