Bryce Young Praised by CFB Twitter as Alabama Coasts Past Auburn to Win Iron Bowl

Bryce Young made it count in what might have been his final Iron Bowl.

No. 7 Alabama took down Auburn 49-27 on Saturday in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, to finish the regular season at 10-2 and perhaps keep its slim hope of reaching the College Football Playoff alive.

The Crimson Tide were cruising 35-14 by halftime and generated 516 total yards for the day. Young finished 20-of-30 for 343 yards, three touchdowns and an interception through the air, along with 48 yards and one score on the ground.

This was one of the more inconsequential Iron Bowls in recent years since Alabama doesn't control its own destiny in the CFP race.
