For the first time since week six, Alabama football is back on top of the AP poll. 

The Crimson Tide is ranked No. 1 after upsetting then No. 1 Georgia on Saturday in the SEC Championship game. 

The AP Poll does not determine College Football Playoff spots in any way, but could be reflective of where Alabama lands when the committee's final rankings come out Sunday.
