We win.

I like the matchup of our Offensive Line against Auburn's Defensive Line.

The only aspects that concern me about our game with Auburn is 2 aspects.

1. J.B. Grimes (who is one of the better OL Coaches in all of college football). Auburn's Offensive Linemen will be fundamentally sound.

2. Auburn's Wide Receivers (Coates and Williams).

If we can overcome those 2 above aspects, it will give us a great chance to win.

Regarding the information I located, I was surprised most by the size that West Virginia has on their starting Offensive Line. That WVU OL size could cause some problems for Alabama's DL.
