Alabama vs. Auburn CBB Prediction:

I like the Crimson Tide’s chances to cover this game. A few numbers make the case for the team from Tuscaloosa. Alabama is 11-6 ATS in conference games and 5-1 ATS as an underdog this season. Additionally, the Crimson Tide are 8-5 ATS when facing ranked opponents and 5-2 ATS when playing with the rest disadvantage this year. 

For Auburn, they already have the regular season SEC championship locked up no matter what happens this weekend. It remains to be seen if the starters will get full workloads ahead of the upcoming conference and NCAA tournaments. An interesting number points to the Tigers potentially failing to cover this contest. Auburn is 2-4 ATS when playing with the rest advantage in 2024-25. These two teams are pretty close to even so it would track that each team would cover on the other’s court this year. Auburn covered the number in Tuscaloosa on February 15th. I like Bama’s chances to cover at Auburn on Saturday. I’m taking Alabama +7.5 on the road at Bovada.lv this weekend. 

Alabama vs. Auburn CBB Prediction: ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE +7.5
