Auburn preview: A mismatch on paper, but an atypical matchup
Jess Nicholas, TideFans.com Editor-In-Chief

Covid-19 waited in the wings to make its biggest sports-related impact in the state of Alabama until the moment when the spotlight was the brightest, throwing back its cloak, twitching its mustache and stealing the spotlight of Alabama-Auburn week by kidnapping Nick Saban and rushing from the stage, cackling as it departed.

The only thing I had to question was that the WR matchup could go either way. I just see 6 as truly top 5 pick elite. AU does have some talent but even without Waddle I think Bama had a significant advantage. The bigger advantage this year was Mac confidence!
