    Agreed! But still... Calm down. AP Poll or even BCS Poll means nothing until after the last week. IMO, being ranked as No.2 isn't necessarily a bad thing at this point because the ranking would always work as a reminder to our players that they still have a target to chase and they are not perfect yet. Plus, it's easy for these kids to become complacent or feel too much pressure when everyone in the country is calling them No.1. So like I said, take it easy and just let time prove things right from wrong.:thumb:

    Not worked up. Nor was I really talking about what's better for the team to be ranked.

    I'm merely amazed that anyone could have any other team than LSU ranked #1 at this point. 3 away ranked opponents in 4 weeks? That's insane. No other team would do that, especially starting the season.

    I've always favored the computer polls, but this makes me believe we should do 100% computer polls instead of a 50/50 split. It'd be far less biased.

    And 2 of those 3 ranked teams will probably win their respective conferences.
