After the Alabama Crimson Tide saw a rise in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll on Sunday afternoon as a result of their 28-14 Iron Bowl win over the Auburn Tigers, the same can now be said for the AP Poll Top 25.
Yes, after carrying an AP Poll ranking of No. 13 into the Iron Bowl, Alabama is back on the rise in the latest rankings release, jumping two spots up to No. 11 overall. The Crimson Tide are also the fourth highest-ranked SEC team, following No. 2 Texas, No. 5 Georgia, and No. 6 Tennessee.
One of the most notable takeaways however is the fact that Alabama is ahead of both South Carolina (No. 13) and Miami (No. 14) in the latest AP Poll, which will be something to watch for to see if the same happens in Tuesday night’s College Football Playoff rankings.
Alabama’s record currently sits at 9-3 after the conclusion of the regular season, and will await their CFP fate next Sunday afternoon when the official bracket is released.
