Yahoo Top 10: Texas and Colorado are the talk of college football, while Alabama and Clemson are trending down

Alabama has a loss. Clemson has a loss.

Through two weeks of a season, college football’s two powerhouse programs over the last decade are 1-1. It’s the first time that’s happened in 20 years! In 2003, Tommy Bowden-led Clemson lost to Georgia to open the year. Also that year, Mike Shula-led Alabama lost to Oklahoma in Week 2.

Are their dynasties over? Is this the end of the eras? The Tigers have missed the CFP the last two seasons, and Saban’s last two teams have lost at least two games — the first time in a decade for him.
