Alabama is an unfamiliar spot this early in the season with long odds to win the national title.
The lackluster performances made Alabama look like a vulnerable favorite against Ole Miss at home, but Jalen Milroe and the Crimson TideAt the time of writing, Alabama is +5000 to win the College Football Playoff atIt’s unfamiliar territory for the Tide to find themselves in this early in a campaign.For one, you still have Nick Saban as head coach and there are star players up and down the lineup.And things should look better for the Tide after next week, as they’re 15.
Things do get a bit choppier after that for the Tide, as they’d travel to Texas A&M in Week 6, but they do get the benefit of hosting Arkansas, LSU and Tennessee over their next three contests.It’s not an easy schedule by any means, but in most years you’d back the Tide to handle it. But the problem is that for as strong as Alabama looked on defense against Ole Miss, it’s really hard to envision this team going undefeated against this schedule, then winning the SEC Championship Game –potentially against No. 1 Georgia — to get into the College Football Playoff.
