Not too many college football games happened on last week, due to a spike in Coronavirus cases.

With this happening, the University of Alabama remains as the No. 1 team in the nation.

After the Amway Coaches Poll kept it as the top-ranked program, the Associated Press followed suit with its poll. Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide are schedule to battle Kentucky on Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Prior to selecting the Tide in the 2017 recruiting cycle, Mac Jones was very close to picking the Wildcats as his school.

The redshirt junior is in the thick of the Heisman race at quarterback.
