Karen DeBoer explains Alabama’s offensive mistakes in Oklahoma loss
Crimson Tide coach Karen DeBoer said the loss to Oklahoma was disappointing as they missed an opportunity in a tough game.
Following some interesting results in Week 12, the US LBM Coaches Poll has had a bit of a makeover.
The top three teams are still undefeated and maintain their respective positions, but one of them had a pretty dramatic turn of events. Ohio State remains in first place this week with 60 of 63 first-place votes. Indiana doesn’t need any last-minute heroics this time and remains in second place. Texas A&M is still in third place after a wild second-half rally to escape South Carolina, but the Aggies have only been in first place three games to date.
Georgia took over the No. 4 spot thanks to a decisive win over Texas. Oregon State is back in the top five, with Mississippi State and Texas Tech also moving up.
