Where Alabama is ranked in the polls entering Week 8
Alabama got back in the win column on Saturday, albeit narrowly. The Crimson Tide, ranked No. 7 last week, avoided disaster by beating South Carolina 27-25 in a tightly contested game that came down to the wire.
The win moved Alabama to 5-1 on the season and 2-1 in SEC play entering a pivotal stretch of the schedule against three straight ranked opponents in head coach Kalen DeBoer‘s first season.
On Sunday afternoon, the US LBM Coaches Poll and AP Poll were released. Alabama remained ranked No. 7 in both polls.

The No. 7 Crimson Tide has a monumental matchup this week in a road trip to Tennessee, with the loser being in a very difficult spot when it comes to both the SEC championship and College Football Playoff picture. The game has a 2:30 p.m. CT kickoff time and will air on ABC.
