Iron Bowl recruiting battles to watch

Alabama and Auburn will meet on the field this Saturday in the Iron Bowl and what will be the finale of the SEC regular season. While the Tide is a double-digit favorite, the nature of the rivalry always keeps the game interesting. The Tigers will try and use the weekend as a big recruiting stepping stone, with many of their top targets and commits on campus. UA and AU are still going at it for some big-time 2022 targets and commits to round out the cycle, and of course, next year’s class will feature plenty of head-to-head battles between the in-state rivals considering how loaded the 2023 cycle is in the Yellowhammer State. Here we look at five recruitments that feature heavy presences from both Alabama and Auburn.
