With what was known as Scare Saturday only Boise State was able to come out alive with a dominating win over Idaho in comparission to TCU, Oregon and Auburn who all struggled to get wins over unranked foes. Auburn gained most of the first place votes that Oregon and TCU lost, as for the Horned Frogs they still have one AP vote and held onto their two in the Coaches Poll. TCU is still expected to be third when the BCS standings are released later today which will anger the Boise State fan contingent.
Utah stayed in both polls even after their loss to Notre Dame and ended up at 24th in the coaches and 25th in the AP poll. San Diego State in a close lose is still in the others receiving vote categories as is Air Force.
Oh, and Ray Ratto still is voting Delaware in his AP top 25 ballot.
