🏈 Bama will now be ranked Number 1 at some point in 13 straight seasons.

[Davestwin]

With Clemson’s loss to ND, Bama will extend their record to 13 straight seasons being ranked Number 1 in the AP Poll at some point during the season. The greatest run in the Tide’s illustrious history just keeps on going full bore! The only thing that can stop it is Saban’s retirement. When will that be? Me, I’m hoping he coaches well into his 70’s!

That is assuming ND doesn't magically jump up to one.

 

[Secondand26]

I believe it's actually 12 straight 2009-2020.

Weren’t we ranked #1 going into SEC Championship game against UF in 2098? I can’t remember for sure

 

[#80]

Yeah I guess so. I didn't remember being #1 in 2008.

1977

Of course, like many of us, I IMMEDIATELY thought of 77. The hate I already had for ND as an 8 year old seeing them ruin New Years for my folks, in 73, was cemented when they mysteriously jumped us for the natty in 77. That was an amazing team we had then. I remember the Touchdown club, I think, awarding their National Championship trophy to Ole Miss, since THEY beat Notre Dame.

I could also say something political here, but I'll pass.

Yeah, 2008 was when it really felt like Alabama was back (to me). Beat Clemson to start the season, beat Georgia in the blackout, righted some wrongs at LSU, & ran Tuberville’s ass out of town. Lost to UF in championship game, but you could see how it could be under Saban. Good times!
* Oh yeah, & added #2 to the streak of ass whippings to Tennessee

Tom Green is not a homey!

BYU at #3 for that one guy? I also saw where two guys at ESPN projected BYU over Clemson for the 4th Playoff spot. Hey, I like BYU's coach as I have learned a lot about their team the last couple of years with their late kickoffs and them being my last betting chance on a Saturday night, BUT, they aren't even close to competing with Clemson. Clemaon would beat BYU by 45 points.

Seems like once are exposed to the Barn cult you lose the ability for logical unbiased thought.

 

[Bama Guy]

I will take ND for the championship.

Yes, but Bama was actually ranked Number 1 going into the LSU game. They held that spot until losing to Florida. This is the 13th straight season.
