Since we won does this mean we move further down the polls again?

Well they lost to Kentucky and we can’t move up a team that beats a team that loses to Kentucky!

Doesn’t matter what we are ranked. Let’s just keep winning and everything will take care of itself. Oklahoma just won its Super Bowl so I’m hoping they have a hangover and we walk out of there with a W. Only game that scares me is in Knoxville. Go Cats

Don't give them ideas.

Two Top 10 teams beat. We should ranked accordingly

Unfortunately I don't think the voters will think much of a&m anymore, but tbf they don't think much in general either

If they don’t think much of LSU after glazing Lane Kiffin for 9 months straight then I don’t know what it takes

I have cried in Marikkas back when it was a hole in the wall for much worse reasons.

With the little table cloths, they handled the tears well while eating a Rueben

I sincerely hope we keep the power K going forward

We can’t go back…we’ve come too far

It’s the best looking uniform we have had in a long long time. It’s unique it’s us

Except according to the hurt BYU fans. The pant stripes aren’t the same btw.

(The Couch era pant stripes actually were, but the jerseys didn’t have stripes then haha)

Honestly the best start to the szn that we could ask for, holy shit!

1.5 QTRs of total implosion away from being undefeated.

AP DOESN’T KNOW SHIT ABOUT COLLEGE FOOTBALL.

u/kytallguy66 6d ago

I don’t know why so many are so concerned about rankings, this and that. This team clearly thrives on being the underdog and proving the naysayer’s wrong. They will be an underdog against OU next weekend, just the way Stein likes. There will be plenty of bulletin board material.

u/Striking_Try4684 6d ago

Let a naysayer know

I’m a UK grad living in Louisiana. I felt every emotion available to my brain.

"Ever"!?! Ironically, I've been waiting on Basketball Season now that LSU was able to get Wade back as coach. The NCAA basically gave us the death penalty, based off lies, no less; As Dale Brown was retiring.........and right when we were back on the cusp again, literally the year LSU was able to use all of it's scholarships and Wade to run his defense, we get nailed for doing what all the other blue bloods were doing, just that wade was caught on tape. Anyway, Enjoy the win. Back in the day I'd be soooo pissed (due to that massive block in the back on the punt return, and a couple other calls). but I told my friend with 2:13 in the 3rd, that ya'll had this one in the bag. I predicted a win by ya'll going for 2, but not in OT. Thought ya'll were going to score and go for 2 and eventually win 29-27. I hope one of ya'll can find and make a meme of Kiffen scratching his sack late in the 3rd. He was digging deep, then went back in there for a second and his face was all red as he said "God damn", with espn having the cams on him for the reaction due to a good KY play. It was hilarious.

u/tenclubber 6d ago

I bet UK money line last Saturday after the South Carolina game and got +275.

Now I only bet $20 bucks but still.

u/dirtyrango 6d ago

I actually only put in $300 last weekend and I've just been running it up since then.

My wife is being all pissy pants about it but it's freeroll at this point. I'm thinking about taking UK moneyline against Oklahoma and prob the over and just letting it ride.

u/outsidetheeggshell 6d ago

Take the 2k let the 1 ride again

u/dirtyrango 5d ago

I pussied out and cashed out. I'm honestly not great at sports betting, figured I'd just take the windfall and buy some stupid shit for me and the wife and Val it quits until I put more money on there next week.

u/LastAct4 5d ago

ya'll deserved it, after dealing with storming the field, as LSU won on the last play of the game years back (when saban coached LSU).

u/LastAct4 5d ago

I just mentioned the same thing, then saw your comment. WHy was Kiffen scratching his sack so much Sat night, it looked liked someone gave him the crabs. I've never been thrilled that we hired Kiffen. Last I checked, it's LSU.......we don't hire coaches from Ole Piss.....what a knee jerk reaction, as always. LSU should have made Jimbo the coach after Saban, but wouldn't do that because they assumed it would be another mike archer scenario. Jimbo was much more than an assistant and master QB developer, but Saban gave him total control and was from the bowden tree. At least he won a NC at FSU, so I didn't seem like a fool when we had that grass eating cow as a coach. TBH, I'm still stunned and happy we got WADE back as coach in BB, even though it may be a rough start this time.......the SEC overall has oinvested in BB like they did in baseball and is much more rough this go around. EIther way I'm ready for basketball season and to eventually have a team that runs a pressing defense all game. He never got to install it last time full tilt as we were still on scholarship restrictions post the lynching of Dale Brown by the NCAA, followed up with the stupid 5-8 rule or whatever it was.....anyway, his last year was the year we finally had all scholarships available. If not for the pure luck of 5 local kids, coached then led by his son Collis Temple, LSU has been garbage. Then again, the PMAC has become depressing, esp since they took the student section away, wherein it ran from baseline to baseline from row 1 to the rafters. They might as well bring that back since they don't ever seem to fill the upper bowl at all anymore. It's so quiet in there that you can hear basketball players trash talking and the squeak of sneakers. It's sad. Then again BR has ignorant BB fans, who think of dale brown as nothing more than a clown and/or motivator. He was a master x and O guy......and at least as good as a coach as lets say the current bruce pearl.
