The Florida Gators, Texas Longhorns and Alabama Crimson Tide held firm to their spots in the AP Top 25 rankings this week and a BCS national championship showdown appears to be in the cards for two of those schools.
Florida took care of Vanderbilt 27-3 on Saturday and while the offense once again fell short of impressing the Gators did enough to keep their #1 ranking in the AP Top 25. The same could be said for the Texas Longhorns who weren’t exactly sharp in the opening frame against UCF but they put it together and their 35-3 victory keeps them at #2 this week.
The Alabama Crimson Tide came off their bye-week and took out the LSU Tigers to clinch the SEC West and set up a showdown with the Florida Gators in the SEC championship. The Tide remain at #3 this week but a victory over Florida in the SEC championship would almost certainly guarantee them a spot in the BCS title game.
It was a great week for TCU as the Horned Frogs jumped two spots to land at #4 this week after blasting San Diego State. TCU benefited from an Iowa loss and a less than impressive effort from Cincinnati to put themselves in line for a solid BCS bowl and an outside shot at a BCS national championship.
The Cincinnati Bearcats held on to their #5 spot this week and they may be grateful for that as they survived a wild game against Connecticut.
Boise State can’t seem to win even when they win as the Broncos once again dropped a spot to #6 despite a win over Louisiana Tech on Friday. The Broncos are followed closely by the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets who jumped three spots to #7 following losses by Iowa, Oregon and LSU. Pittsburgh also found it to be a fruitful weekend as the Panthers moved up six spots to #8 after beating Syracuse.
