The Alabama Crimson Tide ended with a final record of 10-2, a record some programs could only dream of having. However for Alabama, there is a sense of disappointment.
In the second-to-last rankings done by the College Football Playoff committee, Alabama was ranked No. 12, the lowest Nick Saban and Alabama has been ranked in years.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, Alabama dropped yet again to No. 13 after not playing for a conference championship this past weekend.

It’s also very unusual for Alabama to be looking up at the numerous other fellow SEC programs that are ahead of them in the rankings.
Teams that are ranked higher than Alabama to finish the 2019 season: Auburn (No. 12), Florida (No. 9), Georgia (No. 5) and LSU (No. 1).
Alabama will now look to play in it’s final game of the season, which will take place on New Year’s Day against Michigan in the Citrus Bowl.
