Alabama holds onto poll position

Alabama retained its No. 2 ranking in the latest AP Top 25 Poll, but the rest of the SEC was not so fortunate.

Less than a week after the SEC placed a record 10 teams in the AP Top 25 Poll, the conference saw three teams (Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi State) drop out after losses, but the movement didn’t stop there. 

Auburn’s overtime victory over FCS foe Jacksonville State did not impress voters it would seem as the Tigers dropped from No. 6 to No. 18. Texas A&M and Missouri also dropped one spot landing at No. 17 and No. 22 respectively. No. 7 Georgia, No. 13 LSU and No. 15 Ole Miss all moved up in the latest edition of the poll.

Ohio State is no longer a unanimous No. 1 selection as No. 4 Michigan State picked up two first place votes after defeating Oregon on Saturday. No. 3 TCU and No. 5 Baylor round out the top five.
