Iron Bowl 2013: Who should you root for?

In an attempt to simplify this Saturday for fellow ranters. I've gone through the rest of the SEC Schools and decided who you should root for based on recruiting, rivalries and other factors.

Alabama: Alabama

Arkansas: Alabama - Bielema can better sell the SEC to recruits if the conference wins another championship. Alabama is the best chance.

Auburn: Auburn

Florida: Auburn - Malzahn turning Auburn around in such a miraculous fashion would help convince the Gator's AD to fire Muschamp

Georgia: Alabama - Auburn is a rival on the field and UGA has numerous head to head recruiting battles with Auburn this year.

Kentucky: Auburn - Any momentum for Alabama makes it more likely they lose 5 star DT Matt Elam

LSU: Auburn - Hootie Jones and Leonard Fournette will surely be impressed if Alabama wins a 4th title in 5 years.

Mississippi State: Alabama - MSU's only real football pride is being in the SEC. If Auburn wins the Iron Bowl the Seminoles or Buckeyes will win the BCS Title Game and the bragging about conference affiliation won't be as fun.

Missouri: Alabama - With OSU and FSU ahead of them in the polls. Missouri is going to need a signature win to get into the BCS title game. Perhaps an undefeated Alabama team could provide the boost.

Ole Miss: Alabama - There are only so many wins, fans and recruits to spread among SEC West teams and we already know Bama is going to get the best of the best. Auburn's rise could interfere with Ole Miss getting Alabama's crumbs.

South Carolina: Auburn - In the off chance that USCe gets into the SEC title game they won't be in the national championship picture and should want the easiest possible matchup.

Tennessee: Auburn - Alabama's rival

Texas A&M: Alabama - These two schools are always cordial and have a shared history

Vanderbilt: Alabama - Conference pride (see MSU)
