NCAAF A top-10 shakeup in latest US LBM Coaches Poll doesn’t move Alabama
Alabama football’s 56-7 win over Middle Tennessee in Week 1 was dominant and many worries regarding the team were alleviated. However, it was not enough to move Alabama up in the US LBM Coaches Poll.
Georgia remains the No. 1 team in the nation after a win against Tennessee-Martin and Michigan stays sandwiched in between the Dawgs and the Tide after beating Eastern Carolina.
Alabama will have a true test next week as the Tide host the No. 10 Texas Longhorns for the second installment of the home-and-home series that began in 2022 with a one-point Alabama win.
