TLDR: Well, folks, it looks like the Crimson Tide’s chances of slipping into that final at-large spot for the College Football Playoff have taken a dramatic turn! Over the penultimate rankings session, Alabama nudged ahead of Miami. Now Alabama stands at No. 11 while Miami is chuggin’ at No. 12. If these rankings hold steady times Sunday, Alabama would snatch the playoff ticket from the Hurricanes, thank y’all very much! Meanwhile, up at the top, we’ve got Oregon hanging in there at No. 1, followed by Texas and Penn State, with Georgia being the highest-ranked two-loss team. Folks, it’s a bit of a mind-boggler how Boise State sits hand-in-hand with the Big 12’s finest; if they handle UNLV, they might just outrank Arizona State and Iowa State for a first-round bye. The truth, however, to this story is in the details of strength and schedule. Alabama might not be knocking everyone’s socks off this season, but when you hear Warde Manuel say Alabama’s 3-1 against top 25 teams, while Miami’s 0-1, the picture looks clearer. Miami might have a flashier offense, but its defense gets leaky now and then. And sure, Alabama faltered against some weaker teams like Vanderbilt and Oklahoma, that doesn’t always sit well, yet their pitch is a tad stronger according to the committee. That’s SEC bias for ya, and it’s sure to light up a good ol’ weeklong buzz, especially among them ACC folks. All in all, things are heating up and our boys in crimson got quite the talken to look forward to as the clock ticks down!
Well, y’all, Alabama’s got a shot at the playoffs that’s gone and got itself a tad brighter! As of the latest College Football Playoff rankings, the Crimson Tide done skedaddled right past Miami to claim that No. 11 spot. Now, Miami’s sittin’ pretty at No. 12. Should this stand come Sunday, well, Alabama’s got its hands around the last at-large seat in the 12-team tourney, much to Miami’s chagrin!
Now, if you’re squintin’ toward the top, we got Oregon steady as No. 1 like a buck in a rut, and Texas and Penn State right on its hooves. Meanwhile, Georgia’s holding onto them ranking ropes as our top two-loss cowboy in the corral. Now, Boise State’s leapfrogging its way ahead of Arizona State, and if they wrangle UNLV the right way this Friday, they might just outjump those Big 12 compadres for a bye.
Here come them first-round duels, folks! Alabama, sweet Alabama, will be facing off against Notre Dame, and hoo boy is that gonna be a barn burner. While the other matchups include Arizona State trying their might against Penn State and Indiana squaring up with Georgia. Ohio State, on the other hand, is preparing to host Tennessee like no other.
But here’s a twist: Clemson might just put a spell on SMU this Saturday, and if that happens, our Mustangs could tumble like a boozy line dancer at a hoe-down. The Committee’s been on pins and needles over Alabama’s placement before, and anything can happen as the winds blow.
Now let me holler atcha ‘bout Alabama’s jump over Miami. Many are wondering if this here’s SEC bias or just good sports sense. Alabama’s got themselves a mighty strong schedule—while Miami’s had a case of the dog days with that defense. But fair play is what they say, and Alabama done won against Georgia, South Carolina, and Missouri too.
All I reckon is Alabama’s little leap over Miami is sparking talk far beyond our Alabama dine-ins—sparkin’ right up through the football-loving world! There’s grumbles of SEC favoritism, that’s for sure. But folks, aren’t we all just here to see who the best football dawg in the park really is? Here’s to another week of Southern frying, family laughin’ and yes, darn good gridiron grindin’. Keep your hats on, and Go Bama!
