The Alabama Crimson Tide currently has a 6-2 record, which may not be where they hoped to be at this point in the season, but they still have a chance to make the Playoffs. With four tough games remaining against LSU, Oklahoma, Mercer, and Auburn, the Tide will need to continue their recent success and stay healthy during their upcoming bye week. The defense had their best performance of the season against Missouri, which will be crucial as they head to Baton Rouge on Nov. 9.
According to ESPN’s Playoff Predictor, Alabama has a 53% chance of making the 12-team Playoff, ranking them fourth in the SEC and 12th overall. With three losses likely keeping any team out of contention, the Tide have a coin-flip chance of running the table and securing a Playoff spot. Despite early season criticism, Kalen DeBoer and the coaching staff seem to be finding their stride and establishing themselves.
