College Football Rankings, Week 1: Coaches Poll Keeps Boise In At No. 25

The Boise St. Broncos are still ranked in the USA Today Coaches Poll, but at No. 25 they are barely holding on to that spot. Losing 17-13 to the Michigan St. Spartans certainly made that happen, but enough voters decided the team would stay in the poll. It was a three-spot drop for them.

Just as in the AP poll, the Alabama Crimson Tide moved to the top spot after demolishing Michigan, 41-14. The former No. 1 LSU Tigers dropped to No. 3 while USC moved up to No. 2. Oregon flipped places with Oklahoma and is now No. 4.

Auburn dropped out of the No. 25 slot and allowed Louisville to slide at No. 24 as the new entrant.

Boise State is off this weekend.
