ESPN’s Rece Davis released his playoff foursome on Monday, and LSU was one of the teams in his top four.
The College GameDay host had the Tigers ranked third this week, behind Ohio State and Baylor.
First 4: 1. Ohio State (their best is better than rest) 2. Baylor (played most consistently) 3. LSU (strength of record rewarded) 4. Utah

LSU is the only undefeated team in the SEC. The Tigers are 6-0 and ranked fifth in both the AP and Coaches polls.
Davis listed Alabama as one of the teams that is knocking on the door. The Crimson Tide are 6-1 and ranked eighth in both polls. They are the highest ranked team with a loss.
Next 4: 5. Clemson 6. TCU (2 toughest to leave out of top 4) 7. Alabama 8. Stanford

Davis has Florida (6-1) as his No. 12 team. The Gators lost a close game, 35-28, to LSU last Saturday in Baton Rouge.
Four More: 9. Fla State (getting better each week) 10. Mich St. 11. ND (feels too low for them) 12. Florida

Texas A&M lost to Alabama last Saturday, but Davis likes the Aggies enough to rank them in a tie for 16th.
Four to Watch (+1): 13. Memphis 14. Oklahoma St. 15. Oklahoma (one bad hiccup but really good) 16 tie: A&M and Houston
