After allowing 511 total yards in the national championship, the Tide defense slipped back to a first-place tie in total defense. Michigan allowed an identical 261.8 yards a game, but played two fewer contests.

Alabama held on to the top rushing defense spot by a huge margin over No. 2 Western Kentucky. The Tide allowed 63.
