Alabama football: Path to ’19 Playoff tough due to weaker schedule

Based on Vegas odds and a broad stroke analysis on the best 2019 college football teams, Alabama football is one of five teams with the best chances of making next year’s CFB Playoff. The others are Clemson, Oklahoma, Georgia and Ohio State.

The rest of the college football world can spare us the teeth-gnashing – fill in the “xxxxxxxx team could upset the CFB world next season.” Maybe there could even be two surprise teams in the next Playoff field. But picking one of the five teams above to win the next CFB National Championship is a much better bet than picking the field.
