The LSU Tigers remained the unanimous No. 1 team on Sunday when the latest BCS, USA Today and Associated Press Top 25 polls were released. The Florida Gators (6-6, 3-5 SEC), fresh off their sixth loss of the season, did not receive a single vote, though Florida State hopped back into the two non-BCS polls due to their victory.

Still think if OSU beats OU this weekend, they jump Bammer and play in the NC game. Really dont care to see an SEC rematch for all the marbles.

LSU – Bama part Deaux would pit the two best teams against eachother but it would be just as boring as part one. I think LSU-OSU would be more interesting although it would still result in an LSU beatdown.
