Another Saturday has come and gone, the LSU Tigers had an opportunity to knock off a top 25 team that came into the game undefeated. Unfortunately for the Bayou Bengals, the team was never in the game against the Kentucky Wildcats. Once they scored their first touchdown of the game, they led wire-to-wire. The Tigers were able to put points on the board but not until after UK built a 35-7 lead in the third quarter.
After another week of college football, it is time to look at the updated polls. USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll was released on Sunday. While the Tigers aren’t anywhere near being ranked after starting the year 3-3, we look at the top 25 and where the Tigers opponents are ranked heading into week seven.
A look at the full coaches poll after this week’s slate of games.
