* Saban said Adam Griffith will be a gametime decision. He has been able to kick this week and they expect him available.
* Surprised at how fast Missouri has acclimated to SEC? Not at all, Saban has a tremendous amount of respect for Gary Pinkel.
* LT Cam Robinson has practiced all week and they expect him to play in the game.
* Thoughts on playoff committee - he doesn't have an opinion but thinks this is what everyone wanted. Said BCS' failure was only when they could have 2 teams in the championship but a third good team created tremendous controversy.
* Downside to playoff is because not long ago, every game that got played and every bowl game was important - you watched all the bowl games on New Year's Day. Now, the only game anybody's interested in is the playoffs. He loves to see people respect all the bowl games and all the teams that have had great seasons and it's sometimes not happening now...
