The Alabama Crimson Tide and Kansas State Wildcats are once again on a path to the BCS Championship game after another exciting weekend of football.
The Big Ten only has two teams in the latest BCS standings as the Nebraska Cornhuskers moved from No. 20 to No. 16 and the Northwestern Wildcats moved into the standings at No. 24 after being previously unranked.
The top two spots still belong to the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Kansas State Wildcats as they try to hold on for the chance to meet in the BCS Championship game.
The third and fourth spots were swapped as the Oregon Ducks moved into the No. 3 spot after beating the USC Trojans in a shootout on Saturday and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish needed three overtimes to dispose of the Pittsburgh Panthers, which led to them dropping to No. 4. The Georgia Bulldogs moved up to No. 5 after the LSU Tigers dropped two spots to No. 7 after their heartbreaking defeat at the hands of the Crimson Tide.
