Alabama, Florida and Texas stay on top, although Boise State at #4 and TCU at #5 are practically tied with Texas. The top seven teams are all still undefeated, and it's now looking as if there might still be quite a few undefeated teams at the end of the season, making for a difficult decision as to who will play to be #1.
