A dismal performance in the SEC title games puts Alabama's playoff hopes in jeopardy

AP News ATLANTA (AP) — Alabama may have played itself out of the College Football Playoff.

AP News It was no big secret that the College Football Playoff selection committee might have an “Alabama problem” by the end of Saturday's Southeastern Conference title game, especially if the Crimson Tide lost. Turns out, they got whupped so badly by Georgia, they might have solved that problem themselves.

Alabama's third loss of the season was a 28-7 beatdown that wasn't that close. And though it might seem unfair to penalize the program for playing in the SEC title game — an extra game against the third-ranked team that the others didn't have to play — it also might be hard...
