With Auburn unlikely to drop out of the top 20 and a berth in the SEC Title game assured. In the event of an Iron Bowl loss, Alabama can still win the SEC title and with the amount of teams losing, make #4.

Making the Tide the first team ever to play a conference game with "qualification assured"








sure.

Nothing is clinched. It's like people have reset buttons every year on what college football is like.

But we are the only team still in the driver's seat, and that's pretty damn awesome.

If Bama were to lose to Auburn and the SECCG they aren't getting in.

Not gonna happen likely but that is the scenario. Or lose this weekend which is even less likely to happen

We might've clinched the west, but we haven't clinched a playoff berth yet.


Grated we're probably at 90% chance to win out, but nothing is guaranteed

The pressure is definitely lowered. As fans, we get relax and get a little cocky. But Saban will obviously have them as motivated as ever. I'm glad the West is officially locked up. We've all seen too much crazy shite in the Iron Bowl. But we'll still want to kill Auburn.

The SECCG is probably going to be Tennessee. I don't think Florida will beat LSU next week. They are anemic offensively. And they're playing in Baton Rouge, where it was hostile enough to affect our offense. And with the circumstances, the Cajuns will be ready with whiskey and piss balloons.

Tennessee has to beat Vandy and Mizzou. There's no reason they should lose those games. But, they shouldn't have lost to Carolina. Kamara's back, and they're much better with him. We'll whip their arse again. 10eesse was fun while it lasted. But I'm always glad to run up the streak number.
