Alabama has only had one undefeated season under Nick Saban and that was in the 2009 season. For all his other championship seasons, Nick Saban and Alabama has needed help to get into a position to play for the title. This season’s schedule represents a good news / bad news situation for the Crimson Tide. The good news is, it’s an easy schedule that should represent a great chance for Alabama to go undefeated this season and get a sure nod for one of the four playoff spots. The bad news is, with a schedule this easy, Alabama won’t have the strength of schedule argument to make it easy getting into the playoffs against other one loss teams this season.
