Its an extremely long shot, but I suppose anything is possible. I would get horny from the melts though.

I have been saying that for a week now.
We just need a couple teams to drop some games and we're back in the conversation. Literally no one had to play away at 5 ranked teams.
We did and we only lost by a total of four points in two games, one of which everyone knows we were badly robbed.
We can squeeze in if we have some losses and I expect USC to lose. LSU will lose one as well. Now we need help on TCU and Michigan.
If we get that it will be Clemson and a 21-point loss (they could lose to NC) versus us and one loss in regular time (one in overtime).

I absolutely agree with the point about how difficult our road games were - playing 3 ranked teams (2 top 10 teams, and 1 with top 10 talent) on the road with 100,000+ in attendance is fricking brutal.
That being said, Alabama is absolutely not going to the playoffs this year. No chance whatsoever. And to be honest, we don't really deserve it.
It is what it is.

We're not making the playoffs.

Bama isn't mathematically eliminated, but it would need 4+ of the following to occur to have a shot: OSU or Mich losing 2 games, TCU losing 1 and not winning conference or losing 2 games, UTk losing 3, LSU losing another, and Pac and ACC champ having 2+ losses
Not impossible, but it seems highly unlikely.
And, after the last couple of weeks, I'd honestly not like to see the team go be #4 seed fodder for UGA or tOSU.

So wait a second. After the TN loss, we really just need SC to beat Clemson which looks entirely possible all of a sudden, and Oregon to beat USC which is entirely possible. And TCU to choke which is probable.
Boys, it's starting to look like the playoffs are legitimately within reach...
TN dropping a game was actually the craziest thing we needed to keep our hopes alive

I think some people are delusional. This team will struggle like hell with Auburn this weekend. Nothing is a given with this bunch.

I'd rather this team not make the CFP. They don't deserve it and would get humiliated.
