Though it doesn't seem like much, the extra time came up big in the 2019 Iron Bowl. An official review put 0:01 back on the clock after it appeared the first half was over, allowing the Tigers to kick a field goal that became consequential in a 48-45 win.

It was the second time in recent years of this rivalry one second on the clock made a huge difference. In the 2013 Iron Bowl, Alabama attempted a field goal with one second left but Chris Davis returned the miss for a game-winning touchdown.

Auburn will try to bring the same good fortune to its students while getting a good laugh at their rival's expense.
