Nick Saban was one of two coaches nationally to rank Alabama at No. 2 in the final AFCA coaches poll of the 2022 regular season, which was published Tuesday.

Saban was joined by UTEP’s Dana Dimel in ranking the Tide directly behind top-ranked Georgia. The USA Today, which compiles the coaches poll, released all of the coaches’ final ballots Wednesday.

When all 63 coaches’ votes were tabulated, Alabama ranked fifth in the final coaches poll behind Georgia, TCU, Michigan and Ohio State. Alabama also finished No. 5 in the final Associated Press poll, which is voted upon by a group of media that ranked the Tide as high as No. 2 and as low as No. 7 on their ballots.

The majority of coaches placed Alabama either No. 5 or No. 6 on their ballots, with none any lower.

Eight coaches voted Alabama as No. 3: Syracuse’s Dino Babers, Louisiana Tech’s Sonnie Cumbie, Notre Dame’s Marcus Freeman, SMU’s Rhett Lashlee, Kent State’s Sean Lewis, UConn’s Jim Mora, Pitt’s Pat Narduzzi and MTSU’s Rick Stockstill.

Five coaches had the Tide at No. 4 on their final ballots: Utah State’s Blake Anderson, Air Force’s Troy Calhoun, Duke’s Mike Elko, Boston College’s Jeff Hafley and Southern Miss’ Will Hall.

Georgia’s Kirby Smart ranked Alabama at No. 6, along with Arkansas’ Sam Pittman. The other two current SEC coaches participating in the poll, Florida’s Billy Napier and Auburn’s Hugh Freeze, both had Alabama at No. 5.

Despite TCU’s blowout loss to Georgia in the national championship game, the Horned Frogs appeared No. 3 on Saban’s ballot, ahead of Michigan and Ohio State.
