There's a considerable difference between being the hunter and the hunted. No team in college football has experienced both sides of that coin more than Alabama.
While the Crimson Tide have spent the most weeks atop the AP Top 25 poll (141), no team has defeated more AP top-ranked opponents than Alabama. The Tide have 11 wins against AP No. 1 teams. Eight of those came during the Nick Saban era (2007-23), including a victory over top-ranked Georgia in the 2023 SEC championship game.
