    OU currently ranked 5th but probably in danger of relinquishing it after needing OT to beat Army.

    Stanford could easily leapfrog us after winning on the road at Oregon. Even though Oregon handed it to them.

    Don't be shocked to see LSU at #7 although moving up to #5 is a very real possibility as well.

    Stay tuned.

    Moving up at this point in the season is not good for us. I think we are ranked too high as it is.

    If we continue to win it will all work itself out.

    LSU will be #5, didn't do anything to not. Stanford should have lost, Oklahoma played very poorly, needed OT to beat Army.

    My guess is we will be #5, Stanford moves to 6 and OU falls to 7.

    I’d prefer to fall. This team plays better when disrespected.

    I disagree... If you are LSU you should play like you are the best. Bama doesn't need to feel like an underdog.

    I agree with you. That's what this team should play like,. But what I've seen so far is they respond and played better when they're told they're not as good as the team they're facing. Lets see how they handle a top 5 ranking and being a double digit favorite Saturday.
