Tigers remain No. 7 in AP despite top 10 win

Tigers remain No. 7 in AP despite top 10 win

LSU only played one game last week, but it was certainly a good win.

The Tigers got their first marquee win of the season, dominating No. 9 Virginia Tech to win 82-64 in a top-10 showdown. They looked much better in that game than they did in the season-opening loss to Colorado, but it wasn’t enough to see a bump in the AP Top 25 this week.

LSU remains at No. 7 in this week’s AP Poll, though they no longer share that spot with Colorado, which now has a loss on its resume to NC State suffered back on Nov. 25 and fell to No. 8.

However, the Tigers were jumped by Texas this week, so they’ll be holding serve as they move down the stretch in non-conference play, which features five winnable games before SEC contests begin.
