2. Alabama Crimson Tide (1): Far be it from me to criticize my CBS Sports colleagues' selections, and certainly no disrespect to the other outstanding linebackers on our Midseason All-America team, but not having Reggie Ragland on said Midseason All-America team feels like finding out the bluegrass festival you've bought tickets to has decided to prohibit the use of banjos. Something just kinda feels ... missing.

As for the Tide's drop out of the top spot after blowing out a previously undefeated top-10 team on the road, that they have a loss and LSU doesn't matters a bit more when that loss came at home to a team that failed to give Memphis as many problems as USF or Bowling Green did.
