    Can someone explain to me how Auburn can move up 1 spot in each poll by beating 1-AA Citadel by 30 points but we stay put at 13 after beating 1-A Miss. St. 51-0? I mean, I know Miss St is not that good, but they would certainly beat the Citadel. How did Auburn become such a "powerhouse"? They only beat us by 1 point, and that was on a bad day! I just don't understand these polls. Screw the pollster, they obviously no very little about the game of college football!

    One thing you HAVE to understand is that the pollsters really DON'T understand college football. The coaches don't actually vote and the media is a joke.

    The BCS has tried to fix this and they got it right last year. LSU was the best team last year no question. However the BCS doesn't have a media outlet. That's not what they do. So don't worry about polls. They are a joke and most people except the media knows this. You've got to calm down and not take this so seriously.

    Dont worry...Auburn has to go to Knoxville this week and yeah I think I like the Vols odds on that one.

    Personally, I follow LSU not the polls, its much less stressful that way.

    One thing is for sure. We will be in a much different spot in 2 weeks. One way or another. So chill and see what happens.

    Wronggggggggggg ... we didn't stay anywhere ...

    LSU lost votes from last week with a 51-0 win ... look it up ... we were 4 votes away from # 12 VA ... now they're nowhere to be seen after a lacklustre performance

    Glad you're screaming now ... When GA loses Sat and stays ahead of LSU in the polls ... your lungs will be primed :hihi:

    Might as well grab a beer and laugh about it ... the media hates LSU and will do their best to give us negative coverage ... just watch the spin they put on LSU's win this week over GA ... I can't wait :dis:

    Of course! It will all be about the internal problems Georgia is having and it will be nothing to do about how good LSU really is. We can't and won't get a break with the media.........EVER! Get used to it. I'm actually glad it's that way. Once you have Trev or Corso on your side you're in big trouble!

    Agreed. You go 10-1 and things like rankings have a way of sorting themselves out.
