The LSU Tigers have dropped down to #22 in the latest Associated Press Top 25 Poll, the AP announced on Monday.

The plummet in the rankings comes after LSU’s stunning 35-34 loss in overtime to Kentucky on Saturday night. The Wildcats used a two-point conversion to pull off the upset. After the win, Kentucky moved back into the poll at #15.

The top of the poll had plenty of movement as well. With an upset loss to Oklahoma, Texas dropped from #1 down to #7. Georgia, meanwhile, won a top ten showdown over Alabama and took over the top spot.
