re: LSU ranked No. 6 in preseason AP

It's pretty easy to see why Oklahoma and UGA are ahead of LSU. It's a projection for the end of the season. What that means is, we are expected to lose to Bama therefore a loss, later than UGAs projected loss to Bama and they'd get the championship bid with a chance to make the playoff. Oklahoma isn't expected to lose and therefore would rank ahead of us. 5 is the best spot to be in unless Bama and UGA split. We'd be in if things hold to chalk because UGA would have 2 losses, both to Bama.
