LSU basketball gets no love in latest AP Top 25 Poll

If LSU isn’t ranked next weekend, we riot.

The Tigers only received three votes in the latest AP Top 25 Poll after curb-stomping their two opponents over the last week. LSU demolished ULM 101-39 to open the season and then beat Texas State 84-59 last Friday.

There are six total teams from the SEC ranked inside the top 25, including Florida who just knocked off Florida State this weekend.

LSU takes on Liberty tonight at 6 p.m CST and McNeese on Thursday, November 18th at 7 p.m. CST. A win over the Liberty Flames tonight would almost certainly move LSU to the outskirts of the top 25 at the very least, if not a few spots inside the poll.

Here is the latest AP poll in its entirety.
