LSU Football Drops to No. 24 in AP Poll After Alabama Loss
LSU's position in the AP college football poll has fallen to No. 24 following a recent defeat against Alabama.
Monroe El Dorado, LA, November 8, 2026 —
The LSU Tigers football team has fallen to No. 24 in the latest Associated Press (AP) college football poll. This marks a significant drop in the rankings for the team.
The decline in LSU’s standing comes directly after their recent loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide. The specifics of the score or game details were not provided in the summary. The impact of this single defeat resulted in the team’s movement down the poll.
The Associated Press college football poll is a widely recognized ranking of the top teams in NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). Teams are voted on weekly by a panel of sportswriters and broadcasters. A loss, particularly against a highly ranked opponent like Alabama, often leads to a decrease in a team’s ranking.
Further details regarding the number of teams LSU dropped below, the previous ranking before the loss, or other teams’ movements in the poll were not included in the provided summary. The current ranking places LSU within the top 25, but at the lower end of the spectrum. The team’s performance in upcoming games will likely determine their ability to climb back up in future rankings.
