The 2025 Iron Bowl is here, pitting the No. 10 Alabama Crimson Tide (9-2, 6-1 SEC) against the Auburn Tigers (5-6, 1-6 SEC) in one of college football’s fiercest rivalries. Alabama enters as a playoff hopeful, needing a win to bolster its resume after a heartbreaking 23-21 loss to Oklahoma last week, while Auburn fights for bowl eligibility under interim coach D.J. Durkin following a 62-17 rout of Mercer. The Crimson Tide boast an elite defense allowing just 270.9 yards per game, but Auburn’s 370.5 offensive yards could test them on the Plains.
Kickoff is set for Saturday, November 29, 2025, at 6:30 p.m. CT (7:30 p.m. ET) from Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Alabama. This nighttime slot marks the first since 2014, adding extra drama to the 90th edition of the Iron Bowl.
