LSU Climbs to No. 8 in Week 8 AP Poll

Thanks to an overtime upset win over Ole Miss, LSU (5-1, 2-0) has vaulted into the AP Top 10 for the first time this season and land at #8 in this week’s poll.

Texas, who I fear has the juice this year, holds on to the No. 1 ranking after the Longhorns vaporized the Sooners at Red River, 34-3. Oregon moved up to #2 after beating Ohio State, Penn State also moved up one spot from #4 to #3, while the Buckeyes weren’t penalized too harshly for losing by one point on the road against the Ducks. Ohio State only dropped from No. 2 to No. 4, and Georgia rounds out the top-five at #5.

LSU was the biggest climber in this week’s poll moving up five spots, and conversely Ole Miss was the biggest loser…
