The three voters to have Alabama at No. 1 ahead of undefeated Notre Dame were Middle Tennessee's Rick Stockstill, Texas Tech's Tuberville and Vanderbilt's James Franklin.
But while Stockstill and Tuberville had Notre Dame at No. 2, Franklin had the Fighting Irish at No. 4, behind two more SEC teams, Georgia and Florida. Franklin voted his team 16th; the Commodores finished outside the top 25.
