Social media reacts to updated AP Top 25 poll, which includes 7 SEC teams

It was a great week for the SEC in the AP Top 25 poll as seven conference teams were ranked with South Carolina (No. 24) and Florida (No. 25) moving up into the rankings for the first time this season.

Not only that, but Alabama remained at No. 1 and LSU was the biggest mover, going from No. 25 to No. 11. The Tigers notched an upset win over Miami, which fell from No. 8 to No. 22.

Users on social media had plenty of strong reactions, opinions and stats on the impressive showing by the SEC, as well as the rankings of some of the individual teams. Here’s a look at some of them:

Thoughts on AP Poll

Hilarious that someone gave Wisconsin a #1 vote over Alabama.

LSU ranked too high at 11.
Miami shouldn’t be ranked.

Mississippi State still criminally underrated at #18 https://t.co/AIAT4Y1chj

Auburn up to No. 7 in the AP Poll.

LSU jumps all the way to No. 11. Bayou Bengals travel to Auburn in Week 3 after both teams play FCS opponents. Could very well be looking at Auburn's second top-10 matchup in as many FBS games to start the year https://t.co/4UGonNbRnL

Alabama remains atop the AP Poll after beating Louisville on Saturday night.

For the Crimson Tide, it is their 105th week as the AP's No. 1 team, tying them with Ohio State for the most weeks as the No. 1 team since the AP Poll began in 1936. pic.twitter.com/MQAPCCiVHh

Here's another crazy thought: If (a huge IF) LSU goes to Auburn and wins in a couple weeks, it'll be in the top 4.

I’m afraid this weeks game said more about Miami than it did LSU but… jumped from 25 to 11 in the AP poll…. still too early for rankings to matter but that’s for me all kinds of pumped up #GeauxTigers

South Carolina is ranked (24th in the AP poll released Tuesday) for the first time since 2014, setting up the 10th ranked matchup between the Gamecocks and the Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday.

Not saying it'll happen but IF South Carolina can upset UGA they AP Poll top #15 ?

Week 2 AP Poll reaction

1. Why swap Ohio State and Wisconsin? Makes zero sense.

2. LSU might be good, but 12? That's way too rich for a coach that hasn't figured things out on offense

3. Miami could have fallen out of the poll and I'd be okay with it

4. SCAR finally ranked
