College football polls: SEC teams in updated Coaches Poll, AP Top 25 after Week 2

Week 2 of the 2023 college football schedule was another disappointment for several teams across the SEC.

Alabama, previously ranked No. 3 in the country, fell to No. 10 in the U.S. LBM Coaches Poll. Coach Nick Saban's Crimson Tide largely disappointed in a 34-24 loss to Texas, which marked just the ninth time in his tenure that he lost a game in Bryant-Denny Stadium. It's the earliest in the season one of his Alabama teams has lost.

Two-time defending national champion Georgia remained atop the Coaches Poll after a 45-3 win against Ball State Saturday moved it to 2-0. Tennessee remained at No. 9 following its 30-13 victory against Austin Peay.

Elsewhere, No. 23 Texas A&M was unable to stymie Miami's aerial assault and dropped out of the Coaches Poll. Hurricanes quarterback Tyler Van Dyke threw for five touchdowns in a 48-33 win, raising questions as to how much more goodwill Jimbo Fisher has in College Station — and how much, exactly, it would cost the Aggies to move on from him.

It wasn't all bad for the Southeastern Conference, though. Ole Miss managed to beat a ranked Tulane team on the road in New Orleans — albeit with Green Wave quarterback Michael Pratt sidelined with an injury — while Auburn and Mississippi State scored nonconference victories against Cal and Arizona, respectively. With its win, Ole Miss moved up to No. 19.
