Alabama stuns Auburn in 2023 Iron Bowl: Social media reacts to miracle win in Jordan-Hare
Ten years after the Kick Six, Alabama football exorcised some demons in Jordan-Hare Stadium.
On fourth-and-goal from Auburn's 31-yard line, The Tigers rushed two players and spied one while dropping everyone else into coverage, needing just one more play to all but lock up a win over the Crimson Tide.
Jalen Milroe, however, found Isaiah Bond in the back of the end zone for a touchdown to make it 27-24, giving Alabama the lead in miraculous fashion just 26 seconds left.
The game was iced on the next series by a sack-fumble and interception on the last play of the game, giving Alabama the 27-24 win and keeping its College Football Playoff hopes alive heading into the SEC Championship Game against Georgia next Saturday.

It was the kind of finish you can only get in the Iron Bowl. Now, of course, Alabama fans get to do it again as the Crimson Tide get ready to play Georgia in a monumental SEC Championship Game next week.
