The results of Saturday's SEC games helped clear up the picture for Alabama to make the SEC Championship Game.

Should Texas A&M and Alabama meet, the Aggies would have locked in a top-4 seed and opening-round bye in the College Football Playoff. Texas A&M could even overtake top-ranked Ohio State with 13-0 finish given the strength of schedule.

Here's a look at the new College Football Playoff rankings, which were revealed Tuesday, as Georgia and Alabama head in different directions.

If Alabama beats Auburn, Alabama will secure a place in the SEC championship game at 3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 6, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. The Crimson Tide is one of three one-loss SEC teams sitting behind Texas A&M, which is undefeated in conference play.

ESPN’s Football Power Index (FPI) was updated after all the dust had settled on Week 11. Alabama was the top SEC team in the rankings, checking in at No. 4, still sitting behind a trio of Big Ten teams at the top. The SEC had 11 teams represented in the top 25. Check out the full FPI top 25 below:
