CBS Sports’ football analysts aren’t predicting an upset win in Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday.

On Tuesday, the analysts gave their thoughts on this year’s Iron Bowl, and they were all in agreement that the Tide will cruise to a win in the game.

Randy Cross cited the Alabama defense as too much for the Tigers, especially after last week’s performance against New Mexico State.

“I’m gonna start with defense,” Cross said. “Specifically, the Alabama defense. And Auburn had 213 yards against New Mexico State.”

Rick Neuheisel also has the Tide taking the game.

“The Iron Bowl is a staple to end each college season,” Neuheisel said. “I’ll take the Roll-Tiders for a myriad of reasons.”

Brian Jones believes that while the game means more in the SEC, last week it, it just meant more to New Mexico State. Jones doesn’t see Auburn pulling off the upset after last week’s game.

“In the SEC, it just means more. Apparently at New Mexico State as well,” Jones said. “With the rival Bama showing up, Auburn will show up, to no avail.”
