6. Alabama Crimson Tide

Week 2 Ranking: 7

Week 2 Result: 73-0 win vs UL Monroe

Poor UL Monroe. Most college football fans probably saw this coming after Alabama's embarrassing loss to Florida State in week one, but 73-0 is an insane final score.

Everything that could go right did go right for Alabama, beginning with quarterback Ty Simpson who was a perfect 17 for 17 in this game. The Tide also forced three turnovers and gave up less than 150 total yards which is impressive against anyone in the country.

The Tide have a power four opponent in Wisconsin coming to town this week, but this Badgers team is not as great as they used to be. In theory this should be an easy win for Alabama, but that is what everyone thought against Florida State so they are going to have to earn it against Wisconsin.
