Well, atleast at the time we played them. No other team can come close to that and the commitee takes this into account. We have earned our ranking. This is a damn good football team and I look forward to our Tigers reminding everyone that has seemed to forget.

It really has been a fun year all things considered. I really wish we could’ve found a way to not frick up in Gainesville though. That’s a bad Florida team.

We are not playoff caliber. Hope for a win over the Aggies and a compelling Sugar Bowl matchup.

Gainesville was a perfect storm of bad things for LSU. If we played them again with everyone healthy and not on Tim Tebow day, id expect a much different result.

This is important. Where they're ranked now is much more indicative than any preseason or early season rank.

Definitely.

Obviously Clemson...and Notre Damn has been damn strong too. The fourth spot is a humdinger.

Then it is irrelevant, Miami is a bad team not the hyped top 10 people assumed they would be.

The Jimbo pumpers have been saying A&M’s schedule is as tough.

We have digressed on offense. Clemson, Oklahoma, Ohio St, Georgia all would give Bama a fight. LSU has gotten worse down the stretch

It’s fricking football dude. You’re never going to have everyone healthy 5 weeks into the season.

I think someone posted their schedule is ranked 1 spot ahead of ours. They have had to play the top 2 teams in country and now a top 10 team in LSU. We are better, buy they've played a tough arse schedule.

We're still an average football team.

3rd \ 93rd is better than 7th ranked LSU.
