Who's the all-time bet in this year's Fe Bowl 2017? Alabama or Auburn.

We've got your latest betting odds and prediction from a college football expert below.

The Iron Bowl typically features one of the nation'southward best defenses. Either Alabama or Auburn normally showcases a grouping that's stingy against the run and generally denies big passing plays.

This year, both have defenses matching that description.

No. 1 Alabama and No. vi Auburn have been amidst the Southeastern Conference's stingiest teams going into Sabbatum's showdown. And both will take their piece of work cut out for them against 2 of the league's most stiff offenses, especially with some injury issues.

Led by safety Minkah Fitzpatrick , the Ruddy Tide (11-0, vii-0 SEC, No. ane CFP) is formidable every bit always, leading the nation in total and scoring defense. The Tigers (nine-ii, half-dozen-1, No. half-dozen CFP)) aren't too far backside with the help of a dominant pass rusher in Jeff Holland.

Both defenses will exist tasked with containing playmaking quarterbacks with at to the lowest degree 1 go-to receiver and talented tailbacks. Fitzpatrick said Alabama expects a few deep balls with a steady nutrition of runs past Kerryon Johnson & Co.

Alabama is allowing just 244 total yards and x.ii points per game, along with 87 yards on the ground (second-best nationally).

Here's the Alabama vs. Auburn 2017 prediction from The Associated Press college football writer Ralph Russo:

No. 1 Alabama (latest betting oddsminus 5.v; over/under 47.five) at No. 6 Auburn

Tigers have won only 2 of the last nine Atomic number 26 Bowls, but have gone on to play for the national championship after each win … Atomic number 26 Bowl 2017 Prediction: ALABAMA 24-23 (meaning Alabama wins, but Auburn covers the bet.)
