It was a brutal road loss for the Tigers on Saturday night in College Station.

After dominating the first half against Texas A&M, the script completely flipped in the second. The Aggies annihilated LSU with the quarterback run game after making a switch, and Garrett Nussmeier was harassed with two sacks and three ugly interceptions in the second half as the Tigers lost 38-23.

It shouldn't come as much of a surprise that they moved up the most in both directions this week in the US LBM Coaches Poll, falling nine spots to No. 16. However, LSU was overtaken by SEC opponents Tennessee, Texas A&M and Alabama is still one of eight ranked conference teams.

Here is the full Coaches Poll after Week 9.
