Nine teams ranked in the top 25 lost yesterday as the BCS title game picture became much more clear. TCU waxed Utah to remove the Utes from consideration and positioning themselves to move up if Auburn or Oregon happen to lose. Alabama was removed as LSU somehow pulled out the win over the Tide, however the Tigers still need some help to make it to the title game and even to make it to the SEC title game.
