After the season-ending hip injury suffered by Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa on Saturday, the Tide for the first time this season were not included in our writers' votes for the College Football Playoff as of this week.
Alabama won easily over Mississippi State 38-7, but Tagovailoa was injured late in the first half with the Tide ahead 35-7.
The nation's top four teams all won on Saturday.
No. 1 LSU outscored Ole Miss 58-37. Quarterback Joe Burrow threw for 489 yards and five touchdowns but was also intercepted twice.
No. 2 Ohio State had no trouble against Rutgers in a 56-21 win. No. 3 Clemson rolled over Wake Forest 52-3.
No. 4 Georgia was tested by Auburn, but the Bulldogs wrapped up the SEC East division title with a 21-14 win.
