Alabama is looking to put the loss from LSU behind it.
Per its head coach, Nick Saban, the team has responded better this week in practice and it understands what it must do to get back in the College Football Playoff conversation.
The Crimson Tide has to convincingly defeat Mississippi State, Western Carolina and Auburn and hope that Georgia stumbles down the line. Having the Pac-12 implode and a couple of Big Ten schools lose as well could not hurt. All in all, the important matter is for the Tide to bounce back and find a sense of urgency.
