LSU Beats Auburn But Falls in Poll

There is a new No. 2 in college football, as Oregon's emphatic 49-0 win over Arizona late Saturday night pushed the Ducks ahead of Louisiana State in Sunday's Associated Press and USA Today coaches' college football polls.

LSU struggled to a 12-10 win with a struggling Auburn.

USC stayed at No. 13 in the AP but dropped one position, to No. 13, in the coaches' index. UCLA, a loser at home to Oregon State, dropped out of both polls.

The top six of the AP and USA Today polls are the same. Alabama is first followed by Oregon, LSU, Florida State, Georgia and South Carolina.

Kansas State, after its upset of Oklahoma in Norman,  moved up eight spots to No. 7 in the AP, followed by Stanford, West Virginia and Notre Dame.  Oregon State is No. 18 in the AP while Oklahoma slid from No. 6 to No. 16.

Cheering with 'Bible Banners'

Cheerleaders at a Texas high school have won a court order allowing them to continue featuring Biblical quotes on the large paper banners that they hold up for football players to tear through when they take the field at the game opening.

The ruling by a Hardin County judge late Thursday over the so-called “Bible Banners” at the school in the east Texas town of Kountze marked the latest twist in a broader national clash over the separation of religion from public schools.

The banners typically use Biblical passages for messages such as “thanks be to God which gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ,” and are a tradition in Kountze, which has about 2,100 residents northeast of Houston.

Superintendent Kevin Weldon, a former high school football coach, said he contacted the school’s lawyers after he received the letter and ordered the practice with the banners canceled.

Weldon, a former high school football coach, said he was uncomfortable removing the banners and that a lot of Kountze residents agreed with the cheerleaders, but would follow the decisions of the courts and the school board.

“I applaud the students for what they are standing for, I applaud their convictions,” Weldon said. “I have the same convictions they do. My relationship with God is very important to me and this community feels the same way.”

Liberty Institute’s senior counsel, Mike Johnson, said the case was “a quintessential example of students’ private speech being censored unnecessarily by uninformed school officials” and the cheerleaders were committed to fighting for their rights.

“They wanted to demonstrate good sportsmanship by including positive messages on their banners that will encourage not only the home team, but also the players and fans on the opposing side,” Johnson said.

Liberty Institute President Kelly Shackelford said the group had worked to pass state laws that protect religious speech by students and was ready to pursue the issue as long as it takes.
