LSU Lands Back in the Top 25
LSU is back in the AP Top 25 football poll after drubbing Kentucky on Saturday night.
LSU is now gearing up for homecoming this weekend and it's no cakewalk. #3 Ole Miss comes to town to battle the Tigers.
Mississippi State is still at the top of the list despite #2 Florida State's close win over #5 Notre Dame. The Bulldogs were idle this week. Alabama and Auburn are now back in the top-five after No. 4 Baylor and the fifth-ranked Irish fell.
