Are you as excited as I am? Of course you are!

The 2019 Iron Bowl is only days away, and if you are like me, you are playing the big game over and over in your mind in a futile effort to determine how the game will turn out. Of course if we knew that, we’d all be rich!

Before you watch the big game, hop on board as I bring you “The Road Ahead,” Iron Bowl edition. Let’s crunch some numbers and see where these teams shake out.
