College Football Week 13: 5 bold predictions
By Jordan Luth
The final week of the season is upon on us! No better way to get it started then to check out our bold predictions for the final week of the regular season.
It’s the final week of the college football regular season. It is also rivalry week which should make for some great games. A lot of teams will be looking to lock up a playoff spot, while others are still looking for their sixth win to become bowl eligible.
The CFP top four rankings stayed the same, knowing that both Michigan and Ohio State can’t make the playoff since one will lose come Saturday. In all likely hood three spots have been taken with the fourth up for grabs. This weekend will be huge for a lot of those teams. They will have to play their way into the play with big wins.
To get ready for the season final, here are some bold predictions for the last week of the college football season.
5. Alabama wins the Iron Bowl by 20
If Auburn’s loss to Georgia showed anything, it’s that Auburn may not be very talented on the offensive side of the ball. They were only able to put up seven points against a Georgia defense that normal gives up triple that amount of points on average. Meanwhile Alabama’s defense is only allowing 11 points a game. It seems unlikely for Auburn to put up huge points in this game.
Alabama is still undefeated and will remain so after this week. They should be able to beat this mildly overrated Auburn rather easily at home and cruise into the SEC championship game at 12-0. Auburn won’t have much to challenge Alabama with this year. Bama is averaging over 40 points a game and Auburn has no way of being able to stop them from putting up those type of points.
Alabama will take the Iron Bowl once again this year, as they stay undefeated and look for yet another SEC championship.
