Trent Richardson is going in for the kill.
Iron Bowl Prediction Pick 2011, Auburn vs. Alabama
In the past few years, what was a secret only for those in the heart of Dixie has developed a certain national cachet. You watched a game Auburn take Alabama to the limit before their youth and getting caught up in the moment got to them. You then watched Auburn take a series of body blows and were about to get an overhand right knockout until Antoine Carter came up with a spectacular forced fumble.
This year? For Alabama, it’s win and you can chill until the BCS title game. For Auburn, it’s a chance to pull an upset the likes of which haven’t been seen since Punt Bama Punt. The old cliche is that you can throw the records out when these two teams clash. But are we going to see another classic?
Spoiler alert? No.
I’m sorry, but when you have Trent Richardson needing a signature game to lock down the Heisman trophy and the 98th ranked run defense? Alabama’s fixing on scoring a bunch of points. And as I’m one to respond to rhetorical questions let me just say, if they manage to force all the Trent Richardson fumbles? Eddie Lacy is going to be yet another special talent.
I mean, Gus Malzahn is probably going to slow the game down and try to take the air out of the ball. But that being said? LSU wasn’t able to manage any touchdowns on that defense. And LSU does not have near the problems Auburn does with losing yardage on offense. (Auburn currently ranks 117th, behind such college football luminaries as Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, and Memphis). They’re 92nd at converting third downs, and Alabama is first at getting their defenses off the field.
If I’m wrong, there will be so much heat on this that it could power my domicile for so many days. But the fact of the matter is simple.
I’m rolling with the Tide. Alabama 33, Auburn 7.
