The Associated Press released the first poll of the 2023 college football season. Where LSU Football ranks in the Week 1 poll is amusing, to say the least.
LSU Football is ranked No. 5 nationally to start the new college football season. Voters credited the Tigers with 1276 points. The Alabama Crimson Tide are ranked No. 4 with 1398 points.
The AP poll indicates a gap between the top four teams and the rest of college football. I noted the same gap in the preseason coaches poll released last week. As such, I find it amusing that the coaches and media believe Alabama is much better than LSU.
