Tigers Enter AP Top 25

LSU vs. Tennessee will officially be ranked versus ranked

For the first time under the Brian Kelly regime, the Fightin’ Tigers of LSU have entered the AP Top 25.

LSU checks in this week at #25 thanks in large part to the carnage of this past Saturday’s results. Numbers 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, 23, and 24* all lost on Saturday resulting in what some would call a “blood week.”

Note: Washington, Baylor, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Minnesota, Florida State, and Pitt if you’re wondering

But one team’s lost (err… *counts* eight teams) is another team’s gain and the Tigers are back in the AP Poll.

This means that the only ranked versus ranked game in the SEC this week is Tennessee coming to Baton Rouge. So of course it gets the 11 A.M. treatment.

This week’s AP Poll is as follows:

1. Alabama (25)
2. Georgia (28)
3. Ohio State (10)
4. Michigan
5. Clemson
6. USC
7. Oklahoma State
8. Tennessee
9. Ole Miss
10. Penn State
11. Utah
12. Oregon
13. Kentucky
14. NC State
15. Wake Forest
16. BYU
17. TCU
18. UCLA
19. Kansas
20. Kansas State
21. Washington
22. Syracuse
