Where Alabama is ranked in the polls entering Week 6
Alabama football got its biggest win of the young Kalen DeBoer era on Saturday night, knocking off No. 2 Georgia in a wild game that ended with a final score of 41-34.
Going into the game, Alabama was ranked No. 4 in both the Coaches Poll and the AP Poll. Following the win, voters seem convinced that the Crimson Tide is legit under this new regime. Alabama rose all the way to No. 2 in the Coaches Poll, with the AP Poll set to release later this afternoon.
It ties the highest mark a DeBoer-coached team has ever been ranked in the polls, as Washington was ranked as high as No. 2 last season.
The jump makes Alabama the second highest ranked SEC team, trailing No 1 Texas, and ahead of, No. 4 Tennessee, No. 5 Georgia, No. 9 Missouri, No. 11 Ole Miss, No. 12 LSU, No. 17 Oklahoma, and No. 21 Texas A&M.
Getting past one top-5 team in Georgia this weekend, the Crimson Tide still has games against four currently ranked teams left on the schedule, including a home game against Missouri, road games against LSU and Oklahoma in November, and a monumental clash with Tennessee in Knoxville coming up in just three weeks.
Alabama’s next game is against Vanderbilt, which will kick off at 3:15 p.m. CT at FirstBank Stadium in Nashville this coming Saturday.
