Alabama replaces Georgia at No. 1 in College Football after Dawgs fall…….
Alabama’s thrilling 41-34 win over Georgia on Saturday has knocked the Bulldogs out of the No. 1 seed in this week’s College Football Playoff projections. Texas, the current No. 1 in the AP Top 25, is now the projected SEC champion in its first season as a league member. As such, the Longhorns have replaced Georgia as the No. 1 seed in the CFP field. 
It will be an uphill climb for the Bulldogs to get back into the SEC race as the Dawgs will likely have to run the table in conference play to get a berth in the SEC Championship Game. That means wins at home over No. 5 Tennessee, at No. 1 Texas and No. 6 Ole Miss, which lost at home to Kentucky on Saturday.
The Longhorns began SEC play on Saturday with a 35-13 win over Mississippi State. A home game with Georgia on Oct. 19 is their only matchup against one of the other likely contenders.
Missouri also has only one game against one of the other likely SEC contenders — Oct. 26 at Alabama. Meanwhile, the Crimson Tide still have road trips to Tennessee and LSU sandwiched around that game with Mizzou.
