Alabama football remains in title contention after Georgia loss
Alabama Crimson Tide football remains in contention for a national championship following a 20-17 loss to Georgia. Despite the setback, analysts suggest the team's improved performance in the trenches and running game provides a path to the College Football Playoff, noting that a single loss does not mathematically eliminate them from title contention.
