Amway Coaches Poll stock watch: Alabama stays on top after Week 1
The Cardinals made the biggest jump within the poll, climbing eight spots to No. 15.
The Gators remained at No. 25 in the newly released USA Today coaches’ poll and dropped out of the AP poll, which had featured Florida at No. 25 going into the first week of the season. Clemson, Florida State and Ohio State are 2-4 in both polls.
The Alabama Crimson Tide play the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers this Saturday at 2:30 central time at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa.
LSU fell from sixth to 22nd after their opening day loss to the Wisconsin Badgers.
You’d have to trek all the way down to No. 17 to find the next team from the SEC.
The Trojans will now look to regroup and work their way back into the Top 25 with a contest against Utah State at the Coliseum. Texas A&M meanwhile propped themselves into the 20th spot after being unranked a week ago.
Florida State moved up a notch to No. 3 after its huge Monday night comeback win against Mississippi. Auburn was the only other team this week to receive votes, recording 13 of them from AP pollsters.
