Another year, another College Football Playoff that includes the Alabama Crimson Tide, and they might be better than ever. Here are five reasons that Alabama will win the National Championship.

Nick Saban has once again proved his might in the college football world by leading his Crimson Tide team back to the playoffs, where they will face the Washington Huskies in the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl before facing either Clemson or Ohio State.

While Alabama has been to the College Football Playoff in each of its first three seasons, this is the first season that Alabama will enter the Playoff undefeated. The Crimson Tide will be looking to keep that undefeated record and become the first repeat Playoff era champion. The Crimson Tide have been dynamic on both sides of the ball this year, led on offense by freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts and on the defensive side of the ball by Jonathan Allen. Alabama will be without former offensive coordinator, Lane Kiffin, as he assumes his role as the new head coach at Florida Atlantic University.

There is a lot to like about this Alabama team, and just how dominant they are, so it’s easy to see why they are more than capable of reaching the National Championship game for the second year in a row, and winning it. Still, we’re going to narrow it down to five reasons, so let’s get into them.
