UCLA has fallen in both polls after the Bruins’ loss to Arizona State last night. The team is now ranked 16th in both the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll. The Bruins are now ranked below both Utah and Washington, teams they beat earlier in the season.

There were no changes in the Top Five teams this week.

Southern Cal moved to sixth in the Coaches Poll and seventh in the AP Poll as a result of Oregon’s loss to Washington. LSU also moved up for that reason. The Tigers are sixth in the AP Poll and seventh in the Coaches Poll.

Utah, which was ranked 13th in both polls, climbed to 10th in both following losses by Oregon, UCLA and Ole Miss. Washington was rewarded after beating Oregon and the Huskies are now ranked 15th. Oregon State has re-entered the AP Poll this week at 24th.

Here’s the complete Top 25 from both polls:

Others receiving votes: AP Poll - North Carolina State 77, Texas 65, UTSA 51, Troy 22, Duke 16, Liberty 15, Illinois 13, Minnesota 7, Florida 6, Boise State 5, South Alabama 1. Coaches Poll - Texas 76; Oregon State 62; Illinois 48; Texas-San Antonio 40; Troy 32; Minnesota 30; Duke 24; Liberty 9; Pittsburgh 8; Kentucky 8; Florida 8; Boise State 5; Air Force 5; Wake Forest 3; South Alabama 2; Toledo 1.

The Bruins will play their final home game of the season when they host Southern Cal next Saturday at the Rose Bowl. The game will air nationally on Fox and will kickoff at 5:00 pm PT.


Go Bruins.
