Alabama stays put amid top-5 shakeup in latest USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll

Some eye-opening changes made in the latest USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll heading into Week 2.

Alabama put up 55 points and shut out the Utah State Aggies in the Crimson Tide’s season-opening contest, which was apparently enough to ward off Georgia from taking the top spot.

Ohio State defeated Notre Dame, but it was as dominant as many were expecting.

Plenty of changes all around in the latest poll, and there will be plenty more as the weeks go by and the field of contenders begins to level out.
