I see multiple projections for Auburn Minnesota in Outback.
Same. This is from an Auburn beat writer when asked why they’d take Alabama over Auburn for the Citrus Bowl:
- Saban vs. Harbaugh
- Two top-five programs historically
- Alabama has a bigger fan base
The Citrus could still decide to take Auburn, there’s no doubt about that. But when it comes to setting the most sellable matchup, Alabama makes more sense with Michigan on the other side.”

That is true.
They also are more “haters” so I think it is a bigger draw.
At some point, what happens on the field should matter more, but it is a show.

I don't see the bama fans I know traveling to any bowl this year. You might get some sidewalkers from FL with some cheap tickets to fill the stands.

Yeah like ancient history. Michigan has been a top 5 program in the past 15 years
