Where do Alabama's annual "3-4 losses" come from this year?

Sept. 2: Florida State (in Atlanta)
Sept. 9: Fresno State
Sept. 16: Colorado State
Sept. 23: at Vanderbilt
Sept. 30: Ole Miss
Oct. 7: at Texas A&M
Oct. 14: Arkansas
Oct. 21: Tennessee
Oct. 28: bye
Nov. 4: LSU
Nov. 11: at Mississippi State
Nov. 18: Mercer
Nov. 25: at Auburn
The hardest game on paper is by far the opening game against FSU, which honestly could go either way. However the rest of the way it's difficult to find any losses. It's the SEC so anything can happen, but where are Alabama's annual '3-4 losses'™ going to come from? The game at Auburn could be tough I guess, they seem to always play their hardest and save their mojo for those games.
Regardless, it's really difficult not to see Alabama ending the regular season 11-1 or 12-0, before rolling the East team in the SEC championship and making yet another trip to the CFP as the #1 or #2 seed.
That's of course where things will get very interesting again as they did this past year.

It's been upgraded to 4-5 because the SEC will actually stop Jalen Hurts next year

FSU will be loaded next year. I cannot wait for that game.

FSU will be really good but Bama excels in these opening primetime neutral games, so I think they'll Win that one.

This would be the most likely IMO.

FSU because the ACC owns Bama.
Tennessee because of all the articles Tennessee posters will link over the offseason proclaiming their return to greatness.
LSU because they Have more talent plus melt, scared, etc.
Auburn because of white Cam aka stidham.

Not L7U or Tenner.

I'd say, on paper, that FSU and Auburn look like the most likely picks. Though I think on a neutral field Bama has the edge.
They go through a stretch where four out of five conference games are at home, with a bye week before LSU. Before Auburn they get the glorified scrimmage game with Mercer to heal up. Its a very workable schedule this year.

I honestly think Florida State beats them.
They'll probably win the SEC again from that point on. Whether they can do it without any more losses and assure a playoff berth is the question.
