With the College Football Playoff committee unveiling its latest edition of rankings on Tuesday evening, the conversation is with teams at Nos. 4 and 5 (Georgia & Alabama). While the Bulldogs have a few top-25 wins, it also has an embarrassing loss to an unranked team at home and has not looked impressive at times in his wins. As for the Crimson Tide, it convincingly defeated two of the teams Georgia struggled with and has a chance to handle Auburn this weekend. Stephen Smith of Touchdown Alabama Magazine was on In My Own Words, discussing how the committee needs to look at possibly flipping Alabama and Georgia in the rankings. He also dives into how a one-loss Georgia is not better than a one-loss Alabama team.

With Alabama potentially losing Jerry Jeudy, Devonta Smith and Henry Ruggs III to next year’s NFL Draft, Jaylen Waddle will assume the role of being the team’s primary receiver next season. He posted his first 100-yard outing of the year versus Western Carolina and is one of five players with at least 20 receptions. Along with him, the future is bright at receiver with Tyrell Shavers, Slade Bolden, John Metchie and Xavier Williams returning as well. On this segment from In My Own Words, Stephen Smith of Touchdown Alabama Magazine looks at the Crimson Tide’s receiver room as the third thing that stood out against the Catamounts and sets up Waddle as the guy to lead the group in 2020.

With Tua Tagovailoa out for the rest of the season, Najee Harris emerges as focal point offensively for Alabama. He and Tagovailoa became best friends during the 2017 recruiting cycle and arrived at the school together on the same plane. The two contributed to a national championship team as freshmen and had some bonding time in Hawaii. The injury to Tagovailoa bothered Harris and even with the team behind Mac Jones, Harris is dedicating this season to his brother. Stephen Smith of Touchdown Alabama Magazine dives into why the Crimson Tide needs to continue establishing Harris moving forward.

For the Crimson Tide, the task at hand is to win the next two games convincingly and hope both Oregon and Utah lose for an opportunity to get into the top four.

Even with him knowing that Tua Tagovailoa was not 100 percent coming after the LSU game, Alabama’s Nick Saban decided to start him against Mississippi State last week and it came at a cost. Despite a 38-7 win for the Crimson Tide, Tagovailoa suffered a dislocated right hip with a fracture of the posterior wall. He is expected to miss the remainder of the season and many are furious with Saban. Should he bear the entire blame? Stephen Smith of Touchdown Alabama Magazine was live on In My Own Words to discuss the situation.
