We have a new FBS re-ranking following championship Saturday.
In this week’s edition from Paul Myerberg, the Alabama Crimson Tide reclaimed the top spot after running past the Georgia Bulldogs in the SEC Championship. Former LSU defensive coordinator Dave Aranda and the Baylor Bears round out the top five after Alabama, Cincinnati, Michigan, and Georgia.
LSU stayed firm at No. 49 in the rankings. They were off but the storylines continued as they hired a new head coach in Brian Kelly. Thus far we know that Brian Polian of Notre Dame and Frank Wilson of McNeese are now on staff. The roles remain to be seen but Wilson returns to his old post as associate head coach.
