These are the games you need to know about heading into college football’s Rivalry Weekend

The Iron Bowl — Alabama vs. Auburn

Rivalry since: 1893

All time record: Alabama leads, 45-35–1

Last year: Alabama 30, Auburn 12

Trophy: Foy-ODK Sportsmanship Trophy, named after Dean James E. Foy, who served at both schools.

At stake this year: As much as there possibly could be for a non-playoff, non-championship game. It’s already the most enthralling rivalry in college football, and this year the winner gets not only bragging rights but a trip to the SEC title game as the representative of the SEC West. For Auburn, a win would also mean that their hopes of making the college football playoff are still very much alive.

Where to watch: 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS
