For the first time this season, Alabama received no first-place votes in either the coaches or the AP polls. The Tide was lowered to sixth in the coaches and AP Polls. It’s Nick Saban and co.’s worst ranking in the AP since 2019 when a three-point loss to Auburn sent the Tide to the Citrus Bowl. In the coaches poll, Alabama lost its top spot following a 52-49 thriller versus Tennessee. The Bulldogs held a team to 10 points or fewer for the fifth time this fall, routing Vanderbilt, 55-0. Ohio State was idle. Michigan beat Penn State, previously-ranked 10th, 41-17, to round out the top three.
While the Vols jumped to No. 4. per coaches. AP voters lifted the Volunteers to third, with 15 first-place selections, just two behind the Buckeyes. Alabama’s next opponent, Mississippi State, is at No. 24 in both votes after a 10-point loss to Kentucky.
