As frustrating as all this up/down/sideways stuff with the polls this season may be, you have to admit it’s better than last year when there were far too many weeks with no sign of the Lady Bulldogs in the rankings at all. Anyway…predictably, the coaches went along with the writers (who vote in the AP poll) in giving Georgia a hefty five-spot-drop spanking, from #9 to #14, in this week’s ESPN/USA Today poll. There’s nothing left to do now except grab onto that ladder and start climbing again. The ladder’s next rung? LSU…tomorrow night. Here’s this week’s ESPN/USA Today coaches poll top five and Georgia’s ranking:

1. Connecticut

2. Stanford

3. Notre Dame

4. Nebraska

5. Tennessee

14. GEORGIA
