A new No. 1 leads the poll. The Georgia Bulldogs are back in the top spot after an emphatic win over Ole Miss and Miami's loss. The Hurricanes are down to No. 6 after falling at Notre Dame.
After Georgia, the rest of the top five is Utah, Notre Dame, UCLA, and Indiana. LSU's next opponent, Texas, was ranked No. 8 after beating Missouri. Tennessee, also on LSU's remaining schedule, is ranked No. 9. With two top-10 teams left on the schedule, LSU faces a tough slate down the stretch.
With LSU picking up its
third loss of the season, the College Football Playoff is a long shot. Still, LSU has an outside chance if the Tigers can find a way to win out and beat Texas and Tennessee.
