Where Ole Miss football stands in AP Top 25, Coaches Poll after Alabama loss

OXFORD — Ole Miss football's first loss of the season saw the Rebels drop in the rankings for the first time in 2023.

Lane Kiffin's team suffered a 24-10 defeat to Alabama at Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday. As a result, Ole Miss fell from No. 15 to No. 20 in the new AP Poll released on Sunday. The Rebels also fell from No. 16 to No. 20 in the US LBM Coaches Poll.

Ole Miss is in for another challenge this week, welcoming LSU to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on Saturday (5 p.m., ESPN). The Tigers came in at No. 13 in the AP Poll and No. 12 in the Coaches Poll after a narrow victory over Arkansas this week.
