Consecutive losses drop Gators out of polls

The Oklahoma Sooners held on to their season-long No. 1 spot in the USA Today Coaches Poll, while the LSU Tigers kept the No. 1 ranking they earned from the Associated Press last week when the latest top 25 polls were released on Sunday. The Florida Gators (4-2, 2-2 SEC), fresh off back-to-back losses including a 41-11 drubbing by LSU on Saturday, completely fell out of both rankings.
