For the first time, Alabama didn't make the College Football Playoff this past season, as the Crimson Tide suffered two narrow losses during the regular season. 

As a result, Alabama didn't face Clemson for the first time since 2014, when the Tigers didn't make the playoff. 

So what are the chances the Crimson Tide and Tigers play again next season? 

Pretty good. 

Incidentally, the semifinals next season will be at the Rose and Sugar Bowls on Jan. 1, with the National Championship Game slated for Jan. 11 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla.
