Sorry if someone posted this already. UL is #32 in the first BCS poll of the season.

I would love to say this is the highest we have ever been ranked, as I seriously doubt we have ever been ranked higher, but since I have no way to prove this, I am not.


Also, we have 6 votes in the Harris poll, up from 2:

better frame this list

#32 would disapper in a hurry if we played most any of the teams listed immediatley below us. We would have a VERY hard time and would be extremely lucky to win against any of those teams.

NEVER been this high,

I thought UL was ranked 17 or something in the 70's? Of course it wasn't a "BCS" poll though.

Lets get those teams on our schedule here and I like our chances. think Positive.

The only previous ranking I can see is #14 in 1943

How nice would #25 be this season? I wouldn't say it is very likely, but definitely within the realm of possibility.

I think UL has been ranked mid-season a couple times, but unless we find an archived or microfiche news story it will be hard to prove.

Of course the 1943 poll was an end of season poll. . .

I have zero doubt that UL was the very best team in the country that year, and wouldn't mind arguing the point with any of the 13 schools ranked above them.

As encouraged as to what we have accomplished so far, I have to agree. Our schedule outside of OSU is suspect at best. But we are winning these games we would have struggled to in the past!
