    2011 NCAA College Football Polls and Rankings for Week 4 - ESPN

    Unfortunately the coaches poll counts in the BCS, not the AP. All that matters in finishing in the BCS top-2 and we're in the BCS championship game. The coaches all have agendas and the USAToday is more biased, but if LSU wins out against this schedule, they can't help but be in the Top-2. The computers are going to love LSU.

    1. OKLA.....31.........44..............................37..........50
    2. LSU........17.........7...............................14...........5

    I don't get the OU love after barely squeaking past a pretty average looking FSU team.

    OU is a solid team with a good defense ... but they cannot beat LSU in the DOME ... Let them exalt these bastards all season long ... Just like in 2003

    HISTORY WILL REPEAT ITSELF ... Just like in 2003

    I believe if pollsters aren't anything else, they're predictable. They get the love for someone, they keep it.

    Gotta buy in with the coaches. My goodness if coach Saban and Miles say it, who am I?

    I don't know how Bama will stack up against FL .. but I watched the Piggies last night, and they have problems.

    Troy passed at will on them, and I'm not as confident about their run defense against a true power running game like Bama. Further, their run game is still struggling. Wingo had his moments, but all in all, they haven't seen a good run defense like they will see in Bama. Worst of all, Wilson took way too much pressure on passes comming from a Sunbelt front defensive line. Lastly .. turnovers. Adams coughed up two, and Wilson added an int.

    I had high hopes for my little piggies this year at the start, but it's clear, without KDavis, their offense is not quite as daunting. I was hoping for an undefeated AR vs undefeated LSU game at the end ... but I don't see it happening this year.

    This is without doubt LSU's year. ..... to spoil the talking heads day yet again. SEC - LSU .. >>>>>> than OU and Herbie et al.:geaux:

    2 coaches switching their first place vote from LSU to OU is just senseless.
