Well, it was a nice run, but for now we're "just another top 20 team". Can we deal with it?

As far as the rankings, West Virginia is highly overrated.Besides, you shouldn't be in the top 10 if your fans tear down the goalposts after beating a #19 team (Maryland). Auburn Florida State and Ohio State? I don't have a problem with their rankings but I doubt any of them will be in the top 10 at the end of the season.

OUCH Oh well here we go plenty of football left to play.

Auburn will probably win the SEC championship this year but I hope to God they don't. If we can beat Florida and an unimpressive Georgia team, things will fall in place.

WV is a total joke - could you imagine LSU in the "big" east?

AU will be in the top 10 w/o any doubt!It was a white knuckler and LSU is damn good. AU will be in the top 10,i dont think it will be close!:hihi:

LOL!!! That's funny! There are 99 other teams accross the country that WISHED they were a top 20 team.

I'll be watching. We shall see. :thumb:

uhhhhhh, who said our season was over? Have y'all forgotten that we're playing without our biggest offensive weapon?

Auburn is NOT a top 10 team. And quite frankly, LSU isnt either. Not yet anyway. But I will say with confidence that LSU will be the best team in the land at season's end. If they can replace their corners next year, they will be the team to beat. I read an article somewhere that said LSU won their national title 2 years to early. Probably true. This years team definately still has a chance to be a top 10, bcs team, but only if they improve their playcalling and get backed to the basics as far as being able to BLOCK, TACKLE, CATCH, and THROW. But hey, in years past, #13 was a cause for celebration, so lets not get down on these boys, there is still plenty of football to be played. Last year was a dream season, but they did lose to Florida, so it wasnt perfect either. GEAUX TIGERS.
