The 2019 Iron Bowl took place on Saturday November 30, 2019 at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn. The 15th-ranked Auburn Tigers beat the fifth-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide by a score of 48-45 in a classic back-and-forth match.

Late in the game, Alabama missed a field goal that "doinked" off the upright that would have tied the game. On the next possession, Auburn faced 4th down with more than one minute on the clock. Auburn's punter lined up as a wide receiver. Alabama was confused by the formation and received a penalty for having too many players on the field. The result gave Auburn a new set of downs and the ability to end the game by running out the remaining time. With the loss, Alabama was knocked out of playoff contention for the first time since the creation of the Playoff in 2014. This loss also marked the first time Alabama had two or more regular-season losses since 2010.
