Do the coaches watch ANY of the games? I know they normally get assistant AD's to rank the teams for them, but c'mon. LSU has no business being #12.

Va Tech lost ahead of us and teams that were near us in the poll also lost

I would seriously love to see the coaches poll mid season if it was run by the rant. I seriously think that a 7-0 LSU team would be ranked 24th because we didn't "dominate" enough.

I remember the amount criticism here after we beat MSU 45-0 in our opening game in 2007. It was ridiculous.

I don't think I have ever seen fans of a team bitch about being ranked too high. We have some miserable people in this fanbase.

Last year was worse when we were #4. I can understand that mentality last year, but to say that we don't belong at 12 is a little bit of self loathing fandom.

Only 11 teams don't suck more than we do.

Did you watch any football? Have you not seen all the teams that were upset? By default LSU is up there.

man i said it before and i will say it again.
college football as a whole is sort of down.. so nothing wrong with LSU climbing the ranks. it's a very talented team. one of the most in the country.. and the defense is playing terrific with a lot of young talent. the offense will make it's strides.

When I saw this on Sunday, my reasoning was that the "coaches" know all we need is some good QB play and we can be a very good team. (I'm not bashing the QB, I'm saying we need better QB performance)

not even bu default......

have you seen Texas? Florida?

texas mirrored our vandy win in both its games, struggled with 2 awful teams early, let the otherteams implode to pull away.

Florida has struggled mightily vs 2 terrible teams.
Alabama Ohio st and oregon are the only teams who have shown a little dominance, and Bama has played anyone except a young penn st, who was in bama territory everytime i looked, only to pick off a pass. but they have been the most dominant

Ohio St is well ohio st, they look good early, we'll see....

We are 12 because early on college football is down. OU whooped fsu, but they also only won first game by 7 to a terrible team.

early on theres 3-5 good teams, and the rest are a crap shoot

Get ready because LSU will be top ten heading into the UF game. Then LSU fans will really have something to bitch about.
