The San Diego St. Aztecs were in a position to move into the top 10, but their blowout loss to the Colorado St. Rams dropped them to No. 17 in both polls. The UNLV Runnin' Rebels moved up to No. 11 in the AP poll and No. 13 in the coaches poll.
The New Mexico Lobos are still sitting in the 'others receiving votes' category and the Colorado St. Rams who have a respectable 14-6 and just upset San Diego State are nowhere to be found. Voters probably want Colorado State to prove that the game was not a fluke. They will get that chance when they play against UNLV this week.
