The BCS standings will be released next week and the USA Today coaches poll is one-third of the formula to decide who plays in the BCS title game. This week the Oklahoma Soomers retain their No. 1 spot over the LSU Tigers and Alabama Crimson Tide who come into this weeks poll at No. 2 and No. 3.
The top 10 had little movement this week as the Wisconsin Badgers gained a first place vote and moved to the No. 4 spot by passing the Stanford Cardinal who are now No. 5 this week. The Boise St. Broncos stayed pat at No. 6 after their 57-7 victory over Fresno Sate, however the Broncos are only two points ahead of the Oklahoma St. Cowboys.
The other Pac-12 teams in the rankings are the Oregon Ducks who stay at No. 9 after their 43-15 win over Cal and the Arizona St. Sun Devils who moved up to No. 20 after they defeated the Utah Utes 35-14.
The TCU Horned Frogs moved back into the receiving votes category by earning four points after they rebounded from their loss to SMU to defeat the San Diego St. Aztecs 27-14.
