Alabama has had an up-and-down season — with two losses coming into the regular season’s home stretch and sitting outside the driver’s seat for a chance to compete for an SEC title due to road losses to Vanderbilt and Tennessee. They boast wins over LSU, Wisconsin, Georgia, South Carolina and Missouri alongside two wins over Group of 5 programs.
The third installment of CFP rankings come out at 6 p.m. Tuesday on ESPN, as most of the releases will be around that time slot. There will be five rankings during the season, leading to a final one on Dec. 8 to set the playoff field and bowl games.
It is the first year of the 12-team College Football Playoff, where the top four conference champions will get first-round byes. Another conference champ will get an automatic bid, while the rest of the field will be selected by the CFP rankings as at-large bids.
