Following the 26-14 loss in the Iron Bowl, head coach Nick Saban met the media to explain what he thought led to the team's first regular season loss since early 2015.
Growing up in Houston, quarterback Jalen Hurts wasn't around the Iron Bowl rivalry much. Like most other kids in Texas, there was another game that he remembers following.
The No. 1 ranked University of Alabama football team closed out its regular season with a 30-12 home win over No. 13 Auburn in front of a sold-out 101,821 crowd in Bryant-Denny Stadium.
As a team, Alabama covered 501 yards in total offense on 81 plays while the Crimson Tide defense held Auburn to 182 yards on 45 plays, including just one first down in the first half and seven total...
Did he really just say 56-9? Yep, as heard yesterday on the Wild Bill Show with Ryan Fowler a 56-9 prediction did indeed surface on the show. This would be be largest margin of victory in more than 50 years.
So how does this happen...
The first Airbus A321 produced for Delta at the U.S. Airbus Manufacturing Facility in Mobile will fly over Bryant-Denny Stadium before kickoff of the 2016 Iron Bowl on Saturday.
