As the Crimson Tide were given the No. 9 seed in the College Football Playoff, Todd expressed his frustration with officials over the decision.
"Wow. Bama doesn’t move? What a corrupt joke of a cmte," he wrote in a post on X. "Regardless of who gets the 10 slot."
Crimson Tide head coach Kalen DeBoer believed in his team’s resume to make the College Football Playoff regardless of what the pundits were saying.

"When it’s not in your control, there’s always anxious times," he said Sunday, via AL.com. "Really still felt good about what we accomplished all season long. You just trust that resume, if you want to call it that, is what’s going to provide the information to help make this type of decision."
Alabama will take on Oklahoma in the first round of the College Football Playoff.
The Crimson Tide were ranked higher than the Miami Hurricanes, who were narrowly put into the field over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Todd, a Miami native, was excited that the Hurricanes were able to get into the field.
"Well, hallelujah. College Station here we come," he wrote on X.
