Power ranking the SEC after week 3 - 5: LSU

I think many people have faded on LSU since their game-one victory against Clemson on the road. Since that point, Dabo Swinney's crew has looked quite poor at times, and Brian Kelly's bunch hasn't exactly lit things up either.

The Bayou Bengals sleepwalked through a game against Louisiana Tech last week, winning by a 23-7 margin. They hosted Florida, who is coming off of a loss to South Florida, and didn't really put an inspiring game out there in this one, either.

Garrett Nussmeier looks like he still has decision-making issues, as the broadcast booth observed in this game, and despite winning the turnover battle by an immense amount, they could only muster up a ten-point victory. Don't ask Brian Kelly about it, though:

The Tigers are still ranked as a top three team in the nation right now, but I'm not sure how much they've earned it. They travel to Ole Miss in two weeks, but after what we've seen out of Clark Lea's bunch, I've got my eye on their game in Nashville.
