Alabama is back in the hunt for a national championship after the latest CFP rankings were released Tuesday night.

And the SEC again got the benefit of the doubt. Same as it ever was, right? That was the sentiment emanating from ACC Country Tuesday after the College Football Playoff's penultimate rankings propelled a three-loss Alabama team over a two-loss Miami.

Oregon remained No. 1 in the penultimate Top 25, followed by No. 2 Texas, No. 3 Penn State, No. 4 Notre Dame and No. 5 Georgia.
