Alabama remained at No. 4 in both the Associated Press and US LBM Coaches polls released Sunday following the first open date on its schedule. The Crimson Tide is still the third-highest SEC in both polls.
Texas leads the AP top 25 followed by Georgia, Ohio State, Alabama and Ole Miss. The coaches poll has Georgia and Texas flipped followed by Ohio State, Alabama and Tennessee.
Those top fives will see some change next weekend as Alabama hosts Georgia on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. CT inside Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Other ranked opponents on Alabama’s upcoming schedule include No. 5/6 Tennesse (Oct. 19 in Knoxville), No. 11 Missouri (Oct. 26 in Tuscaloosa), No. 14/13 LSU (Nov. 9 in Baton Rouge) and No. 21/18 Oklahoma (Nov. 23, Norman).
