Alabama football held Auburn's Jarquez Hunter to near a season-low in rushing yards. Here's how the Crimson Tide did it.

Jarquez Hunter will carry the Tigers' bowl game hopes on his shoulders vs. the arch-rival Crimson Tide, as Jason Ence explains in his Auburn vs. Alabama player props for Saturday's latest edition of the Iron Bowl.

Auburn’s first scoring opportunity ended in a missed Ian Vachon 39-yard field goal attempt that hooked left. The result of that carried over to Auburn’s next attempt deep in Alabama territory as Hugh Freeze opted to go for it on a fourth down.

The Alabama football defense picked the right moments to rise up in the Crimson Tide's Iron Bowl win over Auburn.

Themes of Auburn’s losing season prevailed in a 28-14 loss to No. 13 Alabama in Tuscaloosa, AL – a place the Crimson Tide now, for the first time ever, lead the all-time series 8-7.

Alabama had four turnovers in the game (three fumbles and an interception.) Obviously, they didn't cost the Tide the game, but they kept the Tigers in the game longer than they should have been. Quarterback Jalen Milroe was responsible for three of the turnovers and has seven total over the last two games.

Beating Auburn gave Alabama a satisfying end to an up-and-down regular season under Kalen DeBoer. What's next? It's not up to the Tide.
