Rising a spot from No. 5 to No. 4 this week is LSU, as the Tigers picked up a 52-35 home win over Florida.

Despite seeing their five-game winning streak snapped with a 52-17 road loss at Georgia, Ole Miss remains at No. 3 in this week’s update. After taking an early 7-0 lead, the Rebels would be outscored 28-14 in the first half, as well as 24-3 in the second, and would be out-gained in total yardage a combined 611-352.
