14. LSU (9-3, 5-3 SEC)
The Tigers won't forget about their crushing 74-72 loss at Texas A&M in seven overtimes on Saturday night anytime soon. The Tigers doused coach Ed Orgeron with Gatorade after they appeared to intercept Kellen Mond's pass with 29 seconds left in regulation. But officials ruled that Mond's knee was down because of a bad snap before he threw the ball. He converted a fourth-and-18 play and then threw a 19-yard touchdown to Quartney Davis on the final play of regulation -- after officials put one second back on the clock -- to tie the score at 31. The teams combined for 84 points during the overtimes, before the Aggies finally won on a two-point conversion. The loss cost the Tigers a 10th victory and might end up knocking them out of contention for a New Year's Six bowl game.
