I think the less thoughtful LSU fans are trying to maintain the point that Alabama's schedule doesn't garner a #1 ranking.
Unfortunately, flaming and trolling is what the vast majority of posters love to do on this board. Bama deserves their #1 ranking regardless of who they have played. They look like an efficient, well oiled machine. I hate Bama, but I love the way Bama plays the game.
I have no problem with pollsters ranking LSU lower based on last night's performance. The close game is meaningless as long as LSU takes care of business over the next 6 weeks. LSU plays Florida, South Carolina, and Alabama in the next 6 weeks. It's all about how LSU performs in those games. The ranking will be there if LSU wins.
But until everyone starts playing each other, it's a flame fest based on who everyone has played and how they looked doing it.

Well said. I don't think anyone should be ranked until week 6 anyway, but that would mean less money for the people who run everything.
I'm not one who puts much stock into a bad performance for a team, especially when it's clear that a team has the talent. LSU can use that game as a gut check, and if they are good, Miles won't have any trouble keeping them focused for the rest of the year.
