ESPN playoff expert explains main reason committee will put Miami over Alabama

Alabama and Miami are going to be pitted up against one another a lot over the next week or so as both are hoping to make the College Football Playoff.

The Hurricanes will not have an opportunity to secure a guaranteed spot in the playoff with them missing the ACC title game. The Crimson Tide are in the same boat with them not playing in the SEC Championship game. Alabama is 9-3, and Miami is 10-2.

The Tide currently have more wins over ranked teams than Miami. However, ESPN senior writer and playoff expert, Heather Dinich feels the committee will favor Miami because of its offense.
