Alabama managed to take down Ole Miss despite being down a point at the half. A final score of 24-10 came as a result of an impressive second-half performance. It was ultimately enough to move the Crimson Tide up a spot in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll.
Not much changed in the few spots ahead of Alabama, with the exception of Notre Dame falling due to a last-second loss to Ohio State.
Next Week, the Crimson Tide hits the road to take on Mississippi State in Starkville.
