Two of the top three teams in the SEC get set to square off on Wednesday night when Auburn (16-2) visits Alabama (12-6). Despite the Tigers being ranked #8 in the country, they find themselves +3.5 road underdogs in this matchup proving this isn’t just a rivalry on the football field.

Before Betting on #8 Auburn vs Alabama NCAAB

Both teams have started off great in conference play, with Auburn off to a perfect 5-0 record and Alabama right behind them at 4-1. The Tigers have rattled off 11 straight wins, astonishingly all by double digits so a 69-64 loss at Appalachian State on December 3rd as -7.5 favorites seems to have really awoken a sleeping dragon.

Auburn’s offense has been impressive all year averaging 83.7 ppg, which is 21st best in the nation. What makes the Tigers so tough to stop is their balance, with four players averaging in double figures led by CJ Williams and his 20.0 ppg and Johni Broome who tallies 15.3 per game.

Auburn has a potent offensive attack, but Alabama shouldn’t be fazed considering the Crimson Tide have the #2 ranked offensive efficiency unit in the country ranking #4 in the nation with 89.2 ppg. Alabama’s 12-6 record may not be impressive on paper, but they are a battle tested unit that has played the 4th toughest strength of schedule in the country that has included losses to Purdue, Creighton, Arizona, and most recently at Tennessee on Saturday.
