Oh awesome we still get to play the #1 and #2 team while tOSU, Oklahoma and Clemson are done for the regular season. Man, how incredibly boring it must be to be a ticket-holder for these Big 10/12 teams. We complain about playing all our OOC games on neutral sites. Imagine not playing a single top-10 team all year. Yikes. Rest up.

What upsets me is LSU has beat two top ten teams, one on the road and one at a natural site. Bama, Oklahoma and Georgia have played nobody. They may be better teams but LSU proved their worth. No one else has. LSU should be ranked #1 until proven otherwise

They are right where they should be. We play #1 & #3. I prefer to see them “underrated” and earn their climb to the top.

The ranking is nice but not vital right now. If LSU wins the SEC, they should be in the top 4 when it counts. I just hope they use every opportunity to develop depth and balance.

If you lose to a #12 team, a team that is bumped up to the top 10, how hard should you really fall? Apparently you lost to a really good team. So you're slightly less good than a team that deserves to be ranked #6, doesn't somewhere in the 8-12 range seem pretty okay? What did you expect, that they'd drop to #22? Think about it. I mean. If both teams go the rest of the year with one loss and Auburn finishes ranked higher, that's a problem. But clearly a 22-21 victory for LSU suggests that the line between the two is pretty fine.

We need to fill Death Valley to capacity for every game and make it like 2011 baby. We got two monsters and one really good team at home and we need to bust their ear drums!

Based on resume’, he have an argument to be top 3. I think Clemson got outplayed against Aggies and am surprised they are still consensus 2nd. Bama and Georgia look really strong. Either way the 5 teams ahead of LSU are very good, but they are ranked high preseason because of reputation and probability of running through their weak schedules.

This is to easy money...below...but how do you figure, at this point in time, that Bama has a weak schedule? I see #22 aTm , #6 LSU, #11 Auburn, #14 Miss St, should Bama advance the east champ, most likely UGA, then it would be back to back top 4 teams. I think you, easy money, are just spewing a talking point that's simply not accurate.
