Last week Boise State was jumped by an idle Stanford even though Boise State easily won. This week they were jumped again, but this time it is more understandable, the team to do so was the Wisconsin Badgers who easily defeated the Nebraska Cornhuskers 48-17. Whereas Boise State had a solid 30-10 win over Nevada they were not their dominant self. Boise State still has one first-place vote in the AP poll.

TCU who lost in overtime to SMU completely fell out of both polls and is not even receiving votes. Air Force who received one 25th place vote for one point in last weeks coaches poll moved up and earned three points, but they are still a ways off from getting into the top 25.
