Jalen Milroe Leads Alabama to Fifth Straight Iron Bowl Win, Keeping Playoff Hopes Alive

Alabama's 28-14 victory over Auburn highlights Milroe's dual-threat performance, but the Crimson Tide's CFP fate remains uncertain.

Jalen Milroe passed for 256 yards and rushed for 104 yards with three touchdowns, marking his fourth career game with three or more rushing TDs.
Alabama's defense forced two critical fourth-quarter turnovers, helping secure the team's undefeated home record this season.
Despite four turnovers, including two fumbles and an interception by Milroe, Alabama controlled possession and outgained Auburn with 457 total yards.
Auburn quarterback Payton Thorne threw for 301 yards but was intercepted late, while a trick play interception ended the Tigers' comeback hopes.
The Crimson Tide, now 9-3, must rely on losses by higher-ranked teams to improve their chances for a College Football Playoff berth under the new format.
