For three consecutive polls, LCU was not in the No.1 spot, but they worked their way back to the top spot in the WBCA poll. Their return to No.1 status lasted through two WBCA and one D2SIDA poll before their loss at Texas A&M-Kingsville resulted in them showing up at No.6 (WBCA) and No.7 (D2SIDA) in the following week's polls. They worked back up to No.2 (D2SIDA) and No.4 (WBCA), but fell to No.10 after falling at A&M-Commerce. They are currently No.13 in WBCA and No.10 in D2SIDA. Overall this season, LCU has been No.1 in three WBCA polls and two D2SIDA polls.
