And the new BCS standings have the Tide …

… at No. 7.

Alabama was seventh last week, but top-ranked Oklahoma’s loss at Missouri allowed for the one-spot jump. The Sooners fell to No. 9.

And don’t kill the messenger, but Auburn is No. 1 in the standings for the very first time. Oregon is second, Boise State third and TCU fourth.

KNOXVILLE ― A foreign smell filled the hallway outside the Alabama locker room Saturday night

When the door swung open, the smoke burned from the end of a few cigars as the Crimson Tide walked to the bus through a mob of cheering fans and flashing cameras.

Who said this rivalry lost its flare this fall?

Before lighting up the stogies, Alabama smoked Tennessee with a huge second half to win its fourth straight over the Vols, 41-10 in front of a once-packed Neyland Stadium.

Now vote.
