Alabama vs. Auburn
The Iron Bowl has a rich history dating back to 1893, but itās the most recent matchups that have been without peer ā and thatād be the case if we were ONLY talking about the Kick Six. Arguably no rivalry has mattered more in the past decade, because one of these teams has been ranked No. 1 or 2 entering this game since 2008 ā and usually at the end of the season, too.
Cheer for the Crimson Tide if youāre fan of the: Washington NFL team
The Tuscaloosa-to-Landover pipeline canāt be matched right now. Washington is home to a whopping seven Bama players, including about 90 percent of its defense: Jonathan Allen, Ryan Anderson, Shaun Dion Hamilton, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Daron Payne, and the lone offensive player, guard Arie Kouandjio. Washington has had a rough go of it with injuries this season, but at least this way, its fans can enjoy a team that is the closest to being unbeatable as weāve seen in years.
Cheer for the Tigers if youāre fan of the: Cleveland Browns
Remember when people were asking last year if Bama could beat the Browns? The answer was no of course, even though the Browns went 0-16 and the Tide won another national championship. But Auburn fans probably got tired of hearing it ā especially considering the Tigers were the only team to beat the Crimson Tide last year. Plus, with three players from Auburn ā Ricardo Louis, Greg Robinson, and Jermaine Whitehead ā and no Bama guys (a rarity for an NFL roster), the chances of hearing āRoll Tideā in Cleveland arenāt high.
