Alabama Football: A couple of weeks from the first CFB Playoff rankings, the Crimson Tide is in a strong position.

After the Kentucky game, on Nov. 21, the Alabama football record should be 7-0. Three days later the first CFB Playoff Rankings will be released by the Selection Committee. An undefeated Alabama Crimson Tide will be ranked No. 1.

The most probable path for an Alabama football Playoff berth is an SEC Championship and an 11-0 or 10-0 record, depending on whether the LSU game will be played. Whether it is 10 or 11 wins does not matter.
