However, Alabama is -115 to eventually make the playoff field and is among the top nine in terms of odds to win the national championship (20-1).

Meanwhile, the Missouri Tigers were able to slip past Auburn last weekend to improve to 6-1 on the season, but they still dropped two spots in the rankings to fall just outside the top 20.
