USA Today Coaches’ Poll Week Four: Oregon leaps LSU to claim No. 2 spot
Apparently, for FBS coaches, a victory in Jordan Hare Stadium isn’t worth nearly as much as it was just a few seasons ago.
After struggling to escape Auburn with a victory, LSU finds themselves eclipsed in the latest USA Today Coaches’ Poll, as Oregon leaps past the Tigers, and claims the No. 2 spot for the Ducks. Oregon beat Arizona over the weekend, 49-0.
The SEC claims four of the top six spots, as No. 5 Georgia and No. 6 South Carolina join in the SEC fun.
