Former Alabama coach Nick Saban has spoken about the Crimson Tide's exclusion from the 2024 College Football Playoff.
Alabama was the first team out of the 12-team field with the committee choosing SMU for the final at-large spot. Following the news, Saban expressed his concerns on the ESPN Selection Show broadcast and warned that the result could devalue the benefits of scheduling difficult opponents during the regular season.
I think one of the things I have mentioned throughout this football season is if we don't take strength of schedule into consideration, is there any benefit to scheduling really good teams in the future?
