"It's a long road to get to this spot, to be again 7-1, really two points away from being 8-0. That's the way we look at it. The guys are excited to go really try to attack one of the goals that we had from the beginning."
DeBoer, who has already stated Alabama's case for the playoff even with a loss, was asked again for his perspective on the question of whether Alabama could miss the playoff with a loss Saturday.
"I mean, it kind of blows my mind," he said. "That's the exact words I used before, that we're really having this debate. I don't say that with any arrogance, 'cause I understand there's a lot of good football teams out there."
You tell them Coach!
