The Alabama Crimson Tide finds themselves in a difficult situation after their 26-14 loss to the Auburn Tigers.

As the Auburn Tigers and Georgia Bulldogs prepare for their rematch in Atlanta this weekend, the fate of the Crimson Tide and their road to number 17 will be decided on Sunday with their chances going from all most certain to doubtful in a span of one game.
