The 2018 Preseason Amway Coaches Poll has been released and LSU is ranked No. 24.

The Tigers have now been ranked in the preseason coaches poll every year since 2001. LSU plays four teams ranked in Top 10 and five in Top 20 this season.

Preseason Amway Coaches Poll:
1. Alabama (13-1)
2. Clemson (12-2)
3. Ohio State (12-2)
4. Georgia (13-2)
5. Oklahoma (12-2)
6. Washington (10-3)
7. Wisconsin (13-1)
8. Miami (Fla.) (10-3)
9. Penn State (11-2)
10. Auburn (10-4)
11. Notre Dame (10-3)
12. Michigan State (10-3)
13. Stanford (9-5)
14. Michigan (8-5)
15. Southern California (11-3)
16. TCU (11-3)
17. Virginia Tech (9-4)
18. Mississippi State (9-4)
19. Florida State (7-6)
20. West Virginia (7-6)
21. Texas (7-6)
22. Boise State (11-3)
23. Central Florida (13-0)
24. LSU (9-4)
25. Oklahoma State (10-3)
quote:

24. LSU (9-4)

Points: 254.
Previous ranking: 18.
Opens: Sept. 2 vs. No. 8 Miami (Fla.) in Arlington, Texas (ABC, 7:30)


Outlook: Ed Orgeron changed offensive coordinators and brought in Ohio State QB transfer Joe Burrow to help remedy the program’s difficulty throwing the ball. Those changes must to be successful as expectations for the Tigers are to contend in the SEC West, which it has not won since 2011.
LSU opens up the 2018 season against Miami on Sunday, September 2nd in Dallas, TX.

Did LSU make the Top 25 just to improve the billing of the Miami game in Dallas? Methinks so.

LSU plays four Top 10 teams, and five of their first nine games are against teams ranked #18 or above.

In 2014, Marshall, Air Force, and Duke all finished ahead of LSU. Be thankful.

Think harder instead of name calling. They’re basically predicting a repeat of last year if Alabama doesn’t have same number of games played

Can't imagine how hard it was for them to not rank Notre Dame in the Top 10 at the beginning of a season.
