What's the defense for LSU being in the top 25? They are 0-3 against Top 25 teams with two of those games at home. Furthermore, they've only beaten one team with a winning record all year (South Carolina by 7).

They took Bama to the wire ... but Kentucky played the Tide close too and they did it at Tuscaloosa.

Couldn't you make the same argument against Air Force? They are #22 in your poll and #25 in mine. They have only beaten one team with a winning record, and it was a 3-point win over 5-4 Houston. The 8-2 record is better than LSU's 6-3 mark, but LSU has the best win over South Carolina. LSU has lost three times, but to Top 14 teams in my latest poll. Air Force has lost to an elite Utah team and Navy, a team with a winning record but still far from being ranked (#39 in your poll). Both losses were at home. The resumes are pretty similar to me.
