Bama Overtakes Clemson in Newest AP Top 25 Poll

Tua Tagovailoa and Alabama are now the No. 1 team in the country after they decimated Ole Miss and the Tigers slipped on the road. Ohio State found their way into the Top 4 after tearing Nebraska apart, while LSU, Oklahoma and Auburn follow them in the rankings.
