Thankfully Bama pretty well crushed LSU, so there won't be any "LSU plays Bama tight, so they only fall two spots."  Eff that, they go below Stanford!

I can hear the complaints now: LSU lost to Alabama, the best team in the country while Stanford lost to lowly Northwestern

We joke but that's a valid point.  However, this Stanford team is very clearly not the Stanford team that lost to Northwestern -- who is, truth be told, not a bad football team.
